Born in the ethereal kingdom of Luthelis, in the heart of the Faelands, Lady Aurelia Moonwhisper was the only child of Queen Seraphina and King Solariel. Her birth was heralded by a rare lunar phenomenon known as the "Fae Moon", where moonlight takes on an iridescent hue, an auspicious omen among the fae, indicative of a child with great destiny.
Childhood (Year -50 to -35 TRA)
Raised amidst the shimmering groves and sparkling waters of Luthelis, Aurelia was exposed to the vast wonders of the Fae realm. Her parents, loving yet mindful of her future role, cultivated her magical abilities and diplomatic skills from an early age.

The Return of Alcor (Year 0 TRA)
With the Return of Alcor and the onset of a new era, the Fae Council realized the need for stronger ties with the mortal realm.

The Emergence of the Shadow (Year 250 TRA)

The Shadow's Scars: Dark Magic Resurgence (Year 325 TRA)
In 325 TRA, remnants of the Shadow's influence began to emerge, this time affecting the users of magic. Those touched by the residual darkness began to lose control over their powers, causing chaos. Aurelia and the Arcane Academy scholars worked tirelessly to research and successfully developed a counter-curse, restoring harmony and order to the magical community.

Education
Born into the royal family of Luthelis, Aurelia's education began at a very young age. Her parents, Queen Seraphina and King Solariel, were her initial educators. They nurtured her inherent magical abilities and taught her the intricacies of the natural world and the delicate balance of the Fae realm.
Aurelia's education was not limited to academic knowledge or magical prowess alone. A significant part of her learning also involved understanding and appreciating the flora, fauna, and mystical creatures of the Fae realm. As a child, she often spent her days exploring enchanted forests and sparkling waters, communicating with nature, and understanding the interconnectedness of all beings.
As she transitioned into adolescence, her education took a more formal turn. She started learning the nuances of negotiation, diplomacy, and leadership, often spending time at the royal court, observing and participating in various discussions and debates. These years also saw her delve deeper into the arcane arts, honing her inherent magical abilities to a fine edge.
Her learning continued well into her adulthood, focusing on strengthening her diplomatic skills, understanding the mortal realm, and mastering her magical prowess. Despite her royal status, she often interacted with the common fae, learning about their lives, aspirations, and concerns.

She is instrumental in negotiating and forging alliances, resolving conflicts, and promoting mutual respect between the two vastly different worlds.
In addition to her diplomatic role, Aurelia's magical prowess and understanding of the arcane have made her a crucial figure in the magical community.

Early Diplomatic Hurdles (Year 0-50 TRA): Aurelia's early years as an emissary were fraught with skepticism and wariness from the mortals.

Mental Trauma
Given the length of her life and the significant role she's held, Lady Aurelia Moonwhisper has inevitably faced events that have left a deep psychological impact on her. Here are a few significant mental traumas that she has experienced:
The Shadow Emergence and Conflict (Year 250-300 TRA): The emergence of the Shadow and the ensuing conflict was a time of great stress and horror for Aurelia. Witnessing the devastation and loss caused by the Shadow left deep emotional scars. The weight of leadership and the responsibility to protect both the Fae and mortal realms during this time put immense mental pressure on Aurelia.
Casualties of the Shadow Conflict (Year 300 TRA): The loss of life during the Shadow Conflict, including many fae and mortals she had come to know and care for, led to a deep sense of grief and guilt. Despite her leadership and strategic insights, she was unable to prevent these losses, leading to feelings of guilt and a deep-seated sorrow that lingered long after the conflict ended.
The Shadow's Scars: Dark Magic Resurgence (Year 325 TRA): Witnessing magic users lose control over their powers due to the residual darkness was a significant trauma for Aurelia. As someone who deeply respects and cherishes the use of magic, seeing it turn chaotic and harmful caused her considerable distress.
The Struggle with Immortality: While being immortal grants Aurelia an extended lifespan to accomplish her goals, it also means witnessing many generations of mortals perish, including close friends and allies. This repetitive cycle of forming attachments and experiencing loss has left Aurelia with a profound sense of loneliness and melancholy.
The Weight of Diplomacy: Aurelia's role as the Fae Emissary to Avaria puts immense mental pressure on her. Constantly balancing the interests of both Fae and mortal realms, resolving conflicts, and dealing with the politics involved has been a source of mental stress.
Throughout these experiences, Aurelia has displayed immense resilience and strength. She recognizes these traumas as part of her journey and uses them to fuel her dedication to the peace and prosperity of both realms she serves.
Intellectual Characteristics
Lady Aurelia Moonwhisper is exceptionally intelligent and wise. Having lived for centuries, she has a vast breadth of knowledge that extends across a variety of fields, but is particularly profound in magic, diplomacy, and inter-realm history. She is a quick thinker, able to analyze situations effectively and make strategic decisions. She's also a keen learner and continually strives to understand the evolving mortal world, keeping her knowledge relevant and up-to-date. Her intellectual curiosity has led her to master many languages, enabling better communication with diverse mortal races.
Morality & Philosophy
Aurelia possesses a deep-seated belief in harmony, peace, and mutual respect among all beings. She values life in all its forms and considers preservation of the natural world a significant responsibility. Being a fae, she respects the balance of nature and believes in the importance of living in sync with the environment.
Aurelia firmly believes in equality, irrespective of one's race or realm of origin. She often reiterates that everyone has a significant role to play in the cosmic balance and that no creature, fae or mortal, is superior or inferior to another.
In terms of morality, Aurelia is guided by a strong sense of justice and fairness. She holds herself to a high ethical standard and expects the same of others, especially those in positions of power.
Taboos
As a fae, Aurelia considers any form of nature desecration as a severe taboo. This includes unnecessary destruction of forests, pollution of water bodies, or killing animals without reason. Such actions are seen as a direct affront to the fae and their inherent connection with nature.
Misuse of magic is another major taboo for Aurelia. Magic, in her eyes, is a gift to be used for the betterment of life, not a tool for personal gain at the expense of others.
Lastly, betraying trust or breaking sworn oaths are viewed as grave taboos. In both fae and diplomatic contexts, trust is paramount, and any breach of this trust is considered a serious offense in Aurelia's eyes.
