Leshanna Sylvaranth

Written by Rags_GM

Leshanna is a Firbolg Druid, living in the small tribe of Myrrdin, on the edge of Celestina Bay. At the ripe old age of 326 years old, Leshanna has been around a long time and has seen the world change vastly. Born and raised in Myrrdin, she has spent her life amongst the wild nature of the surrounding forests, looking after the animals and plants that live nearby. A devout follower of Hertha, Goddess Of The Harvest, she has always tried to promote unity between nature and civilisation, teaching ways in which people can live in harmony with the natural world without needing to destroy it.   Leshanna used to be a member of the Children Of Gaia, at one point serving as a lieutenant of the current leader Zoria. Whilst both sharing a love of the natural world and wanting to protect and preserve it, they often disagreed on how to go about doing this. Leshanna always wanted to do things peacefully, whereas Zoria felt that force was needed to fight back against those that would look to destroy the forests that they treasured so dearly. Leshanna finally left the faction, along with a number of other Druids and Myrrdin itself to split from the Children of Gaia and continue independently.  

Dark Blight

  Balfor Boreus found himself going to Myrrdin when his life was at its lowest point. Having lost his family due to crippling alcoholism, he sought out the Druidic tribe for help and a place to start a new life for himself. There Leshanna and the rest of the tribe took him in and helped him as best they could. They were all shocked when Balfor developed Druidic powers of his own only a few months after joining them, something that very rarely happens in adults, and almost unheard of in Dwarfs. Balfor stayed with the tribe for a year or so, before leaving to start a new life among people again.   Several years later, Balfor returned to Myrrdin with several of his friends (Zook, Grognak, Qildor, Joy and Alina). They were fleeing Veritria and heading north to try to rally together forces, as they believed a war may be coming due to the strange events that were sweeping through the nation. Leshanna, listening to their tale, confirmed similar sightings and reports of strange events happening locally, including reports of a strange disease sweeping through numerous food crops in the area.   Leshanna decided to take Balfor to go and talk to Petrichor, the tribe leader, to ask for his advice and aid. There she witnessed Petrichor talking to Balfor, delivering him a message from the gods directly seeking his aid. Travelling back to Myrrdin, she was devastated to find the tribe had been attacked by undead abominations, killing almost half of the people there. Blaming herself for leaving and angry that this had happened despite her professing to live a peaceful live, she vowed to fight back and seek some kind of vengeance for what had happened here – evidence pointing towards the Festus Brethren being involved. Asking Balfor’s advice, she decided to rebuild the tribe and rejoin the Children of Gaia, preparing for what may come in the future – even if that meant going to war.
