Nystallina Dalendra ( 265 AC - ? AC) was a lithe and agile Silvanesti elf, who had long blond hair. She only stood at five feet tall and was quiet spoken, due to her sad past and the loss of her parents. Her constant traveling companion is a powerful mountain lion called Kai-She, and she has a close kinship with the kender of Kendermore, who she often visits and calls her friends.
Early Life[]
Nystallina was born in 265 AC in a remote northern Silvanesti village. She was the child of the Wildrunner Bannor Dalendra and his wife Thalisha Dalendra. Her father doted on Nystallina and trained her in the way of the warrior. Learning his views and ideals, Nystallina idealized her father in every way, decided to become a Wildrunner like him when she was old enough.
War of the Lance[]
In 345 AC, a few short years before the War of the Lance would break out, Nystallina finally realized her dream of become a Wildrunner of House Protector. She served faithfully until the Silvanesti conflict of 349 AC, in which the Dragonarmies invaded Silvanesti and destroyed her village. Nystallina was one of a handful of elves to escape the dark forces, and she saw her parents both killed. Nystallina then gather the survivors and other elves, forming a band of freedom fighters with raided Dragonarmy caravans and supply routes. When Lorac's Nightmare corrupted the forests, Nystallina's band left the wooded realm and went into the mountains. However the elven bandits continued to harass the Dragonarmy forces where possible.
Post War of the Lance[]
With the war's end, Nystallina's small force disbanded, with the majority of her former bandits returning to their Silvanesti homes. Nystallina herself turned her back on her Silvanesti people, and continued the life of a bandit. She travelled to the realm of Goodlund, where she met and befriended a mountain lion, which she has named Kai-She. The unlikely pair was very close, and would defend one another to the death.
