Personal history
Chi'hell'ya is the last child born to King Ten'wan and Queen Hell'bore of Si'er'ran, the capitol city of the Realm of Fire.
Her brother, Ig'nat'ius, was much older than her and has been preparing for his life on the throne since before she was even born. Her sister, Chi'no'bel (affectionately nicknamed Noble), is only two years older than herself, and is not truly bloodkin to her. Noble was stolen from the Realm of Man as an infant, to satiate the Changeling Pact subjected on their people from the other Elemental Realms. Due to centuries of war, long ago the Elemental Courts called for treaty, and to punish the Fire Realm's lust for blood, they insisted that every royal generational line must take a child from their own household, and swap them with one stolen from the human lands to be raised as their own.
Because it took King Ten'wan so long to establish a Changeling, ignoring the pact in favor of his first born, Ig'nat'ius, it was said that the crown of fire had been cursed, and Ten'wan and Hell'bore began to rapidly age beyond their years. As an attempt to remedy this, their second born was offered to the pact instead, and thus Noble was introduced to the realm, and raised as if she were an ifrit princess herself. This had no effects on the curse, which continued to wither the king and queen by the day. Due to the stress of losing her child, and fatigue from the weight of the curse, it was said that Hell'bore died soon after Chi'hell'ya's birth.
Left without a mother, both Chi'hell'ya and Noble were raised by Hell'bore's handmaiden, Tu'li, who tried her best to look after them, but mostly the girls were left to their own devices. King Ten'wan spent the majority of his days with his Council, physically unable to leave his throne room. His absence throughout the Elemental Realms was subject to endless gossip, and the Fire Realm's tough exterior was thought to be crumbling. Whispers of the King's illness spread through the land like wildfire, yet Ig'nat'ius took his place in public when he could, hoping to quell the public's worries.
Chi'hell'ya grew up a spoiled child, often revered for having formidable tantrums and her ferocity was outmatched by none. When she was a toddler, she accidentally burned Noble's arm, resulting in a gnarly scar, and as such she had her powers bound so she could never hurt her human sister again. Because of this, Chi'hell'ya stopped growing around the age of ten, and she is unable to cast flame in the way most ifits can.
To make up for this, Chi'hell'ya vowed to become a warrior so fearsome, that her name would forever echo throughout Si'er'ran history. Her combat training began the moment she could walk.
When she was seven, she was gifted a flaming battlecat, a tiger she fondly named Ef'fi, to which she is bound as a familiar. Though small in the beginning, Ef'fi grew to a hulking size, and Chi'hell'ya often rides the creature as a steed.
When she was 15, Ig'nat'ius slaughtered the king as he sit helplessly upon his throne, dubbing the gesture a mercy killing and absorbing the Fire Realm's ancient Primal Powers. With Noble being the only witness to the betrayal, she found a bounty on her head and fled to the Realm of Air, leaving Chi'hell'ya to believe their father had died of natural causes and that her sister had abandoned them.
Thus came the story of how the second Realm Wars began, as both Chi'hell'ya and Noble realized there was more to losing their father and mother than they were both told, and years of bloodshed followed.
Once more, after Ig'nat'ius was slain and the Elemental Realms ceased their fighting, treaties were signed, and the lands fell into harmony once more, with Noble as acting queen of the Fire Court, until Chi'hell'ya is ready to handle the pressures of ruling.
And that is where her story ends, that is until she is mysteriously summoned to Riscaria, and epic adventures await.
Education
Chi'hell'ya had the typical education of any other royal child, and was tutored by a governess in subjects like history, astronomy, alchemy, and mathematics from a young age. She excels at Fire Realm history, and spent a great length of time memorizing the names and the achievements of the monarchs that came before her.
She also began formally training in combat from the time she could walk, spending most of her free time sparring with her instructor Ly'ulf, who is a seasoned war commander.
