Her features, while undeniably those of her race with their sharp angles and slender grace, are softened by an unusual beauty. Eyes: Piercing, luminous violet eyes that seem to hold ancient secrets and a surprising depth of emotion. They are distinct from the typical Drow red or crimson. Hair: A cascade of wild, silvery-white hair that tumbles past her shoulders. It is untamed and full of life, not meticulously styled like many high-born Drow, hinting at her unconventional upbringing. Skin: Smooth, dark obsidian skin, typical of her race. Build: Lithe and agile, with a natural grace that speaks of quiet strength rather* than overt power. Attire: While she can adopt more practical clothing for travel, her preferred garments often incorporate subtle elements of intricate stitching or elegant fabrics that are very provocative and sexy always wearing a labcoat of some sort she is not scared to flaunt her assets to get what she needs. Symbol: Around her neck, she wears a silver pendant the crest of House Nasadra. It's a stylized, elegant design, a spider-lily intertwined with a broken crown, signifying both their deep Drow roots and their tragic fall and lost dominion. She wears it with a quiet, fierce pride. Personality Aunrae is a complex blend of ancient pride and personal rebellion. Proud & Resilient: She carries the weight of her exiled house with immense pride. She knows her name, Nasadra, once commanded respect and fear, and she will not let its legacy fade. This manifests as a deep-seated determination and resilience. Independent: Having been hidden away and forced to carve her own path, she is fiercely independent and resourceful. She trusts her own judgment above all else. Non-Conformist: While she deeply values her Drow blood and its inherent strengths (intelligence, cunning, arcane aptitude), she utterly rejects the cruel, oppressive, and Lolth-worshipping ways of mainstream Drow society. She views their traditional path as a corruption, not a strength. Mysterious & Reserved: Her isolated upbringing means she can be socially awkward or seem aloof to outsiders. She prefers observation and quiet contemplation over boisterous interaction, but she possesses a sharp wit and a surprising, dry humor when she chooses to speak. Curious & Driven: Her self-taught path in magic speaks volumes about her insatiable curiosity and relentless drive for knowledge. She seeks to understand the world on her own terms. Ethical (for a Drow): Despite her heritage, she strives to be honorable and just, though her definition of these might still be colored by a pragmatic Drow perspective. She may seem ruthless to enemies, but rarely cruel for cruelty's sake. Background Aunrae Ildibane Nasadra belongs to a Drow house that was once mighty, if unconventional. House Nasadra was not just noble; they rose to rule the expansive Underdark domain of Chad Nasrad, a feat rarely achieved by houses outside the direct influence of Lolth's prime matriarchs. Their power was built on a unique understanding of arcane forces and a network of alliances that challenged the traditional Drow power structures. However, this ambition, or perhaps their esoteric magical practices (or even a direct defiance of Lolth), led to their catastrophic downfall and exile, their very name being struck from most Drow records. Aunrae was born after the exile, in deep hiding. Her parents, or perhaps a devoted elder family member, had spirited her away to an isolated, forgotten corner of the Underdark, far from the reach of vengeful Lolthite houses. She was raised in secret, immersed in the history of House Nasadra their glory, their fall, their unique philosophy. She learned of her great-grandmother, the last Matron of the house, after whom she was named. She has explored the deepest reaches of the Underdark from the upperdark to the lowerdark returning where many have failed to she well versed in drow culture and all other underdark culture she has also explored the far reaches of many planes learning all she can masteing many forms of magic and still seeks to learn more Her middle name, Ildibane, belongs to a legendary and powerful house mage from the Nasadra lineage a master of unusual, potent arcane arts. Aunrae, with no formal Drow schooling or Lolthite indoctrination, was left to explore her innate magical talents and the scattered remnants of her house's forbidden texts. She did not learn magic in the traditional, structured ways of Drow academies. Instead, guided by old, decaying parchments and the whispers of her ancestors' genius, she taught herself esoteric practices, focusing on what she calls "tentnric" (likely a unique interpretation of tantric/life-force/spiritual magic, or a specific, forgotten school of elemental/manipulative magic distinct from typical Drow spellcasting) and "other forms of magic" that allowed her to tap into fundamental energies, manipulate essence, and weave subtle, powerful effects without relying on external deities or traditional pacts. This self-education fostered in her a fierce independence and a profound understanding that strength came from within, not from subservience to a deity or a corrupted society. She maintains her Drow "blood" ? her innate intelligence, cunning, and magical aptitude ? but she walks a path entirely her own, striving to honor her name by being a testament to what a Drow could be, rather than what tradition dictates they must be. Abilities & Skills Self-Taught Arcane Master: Aunrae's magic is unique. She focuses on an esoteric, self-developed school of magic, perhaps drawing on life force, resonance, or subtle elemental manipulation. Her spells might be less overtly destructive than a typical wizard's, focusing more on control, enhancement, restoration, or manipulation of energy. Arcane Intuition: She possesses a naturally keen intellect and an intuitive understanding of magical currents, likely a gift from her Nasadra lineage. Knowledge of the Underdark: Despite her isolated upbringing, she would have extensive knowledge of Underdark lore, history, and survival, particularly regarding forgotten paths and ancient ruins where her house's secrets might lie. Stealth & Observation: A lifetime of being hidden has made her exceptionally perceptive and adept at remaining unnoticed. Ancient Lore: She knows the true history of House Nasadra and its former domain of Chad Nasrad, information often considered heresy or long forgotten by others. Goals Redeem House Nasadra: Not necessarily by re-establishing their rule, but by restoring its honor and proving that Drow can wield power justly and without cruelty. Master Her Unique Magic: To truly understand the depths of the "tentnric" and other forms of magic she has discovered, pushing the boundaries of arcane knowledge. Uncover Lost Secrets: To find further documentation, artifacts, or remnants of House Nasadra's knowledge, especially regarding the true reason for their exile. Forge Her Own Path: To live authentically, true to her own principles, even if it means clashing with the expectations of all other Drow, and even surface dwellers. Quirks & Flaws Socially Awkward: Her isolation has left her with little experience in common social graces, leading to bluntness or an unnerving directness. Deep-Seated Mistrust: She inherently distrusts authority and large organizations, whether they be Drow houses, surface kingdoms, or religious institutions. Unconventional Solutions: Due to her unique magical and personal development, she might approach problems in ways that seem alien or illogical to others. Prideful Streak: Her pride in her heritage can sometimes border on arrogance, causing her to underestimate others or overestimate her own capabilities in certain situations. Fascina |
