Essia

Lord Protector of the Siliban

Essia, once a prisoner of the mad king, was one of the first to gain her senses back when the insane king fell. While many of the half-undead in their confusion fled the city, where slain and cowered away. Essia was the one who built a foundation of order and civilization amidst chaos and offered the half-undead a place among their kind, a haven.   Essia isn't the sole leader of the Siliban but rather the head on the council of 5, each representing a faction with the Siliban. Essia has been granted the title of Lord Protector and is one of the five who sits in the council. The other seats are given to each of the other factions; Master Crafter (Crafter Guild), Valiant of the Sword (Navel and City Guard), High Enchanter (Wizardry and Clergy) and Master of Coin (Merchants, Nobles, and Diplomats).   Essia knows that the former race isn't well known for the good deeds, and thus, she tried to remain in the shadows when she meets new people. If she deems it necessary for the creature to gain her trust, she will reveal herself. Essia doesn't care about good or evil but focusses on being a fair and just leader to an emerging race, which is a very fragile as it tried to make a mark on the lands of Ianna.
