Emilia Koehler Character in Tales from the Rookery | World Anvil

Emilia Koehler

Emilia Koehler (a.k.a. Lia)

Koehler means 'coal burner' in German. Emilia found that amusing when she chose a name.    When Emilia first awoke from her long slumber she was forced to find refuge in a cave system in the Alps while she took the measure of this new world in which she found herself. It didn't take her long to realize that centuries had passed while she lay slumbering. In that time much had changed and yet she found that fundamentally cultures and people remained the same.    Being a dragon gifted with the ability to shift to human form, Emilia quickly adopted a form and ventured out into the new world. She learned technology, though she still prefers magic. Before too long she found work as a legal assistant in order to get a feel for the politics and morals around her. Shortly thereafter she found her calling.    One day, as she was walking home from work she heard the soft sound of crying from behind a dumpster in a side alley. She went to investigate and found a small winged child hiding there. At first the child started with fear, but Emilia worked her magic [literall], and soon the child was snuffling the last of her tears in her lap. Emilia came to understand that the child was being horribly bullied by the other children and worse, by her parents. While her parents hadn't abandoned her to the streets, they were not kind to the child, nor did they defend her from the hard-hearted world that had not embraced the newly forming magical humans.    Just like the Emila had something to protect. Yes, this child, but also all of these children. The wingers. Those who were in need of a safe haven and protection from those who had yet to accept them and their kind. She started forming schools to train wingers in the use of their wings and then, as enough were trained, she started the delivery services across the globe, specializing in the delivery of items the regular services wouldn't, or couldn't carry.    All dragons must have a hoard, and hers is the precious winged children of the new era of magic.
