Very self-deprecating and insecure, despite being the most powerful member of the party besides maybe Westward (see Westward's bio). Has a highly androgynous voice, but appears somewhat more female than male due to the almost dress-like robes.

Appearance: Wears a navy blue dress/robe with a jagged hem and a hood. Wears white gloves and grey boots. No one can see beyond her hood. She has a collar that casts an impenetrable darkness inside of her cloak, preventing people from seeing within.

Very strict about never stealing or cheating (blah,blah,blah) and such, to the annoyance of his fellow party members. Worried about breaking any laws, even keeping off the grass. A stick in the mud.

Constantly wearing a gold necklace that looks like leaves and a dark gold cloak(she really like the color gold).

Personality: Brave and outgoing, very bold. Easy to talk to and will talk to any random person near her. She can be a bit annoying because of how much she talks but to those who have known her for a while it is rather endearing. She is a chatterbox and always needs to talk about something or another. She is far too trusting and is heartbroken when her trust is betrayed.

Alignment: Lawful Neutral

Chapter 2 comes tomorrow! 

In part two, the adventuring party meets a bubbly druid named Starflower with an offer they can hardly refuse, but Illaeara and Esthaenie have their suspicions…

Part 2:

“So, er, Star,” Illaeara said, swirling her tea and leaning back in the tavern stool, “you have work for us?”

Starflower nodded, a grin splitting her face. “Yeah! It’s important, world-saving work, too!”

Illaeara glanced back at Danie and Esthaenie, both of whom were giving Starflower incredulous looks. “Yes, well, you could be more specific,” Illaeara said, pushing a stumbling and tipsy Eris away, “what is this threat you speak of? I’m not sure if we can accept a risky job…”

“Well, I’ll be coming with,” Starflower said, “and anyway, it’s not that risky. You probably–probably–wouldn’t meet a terrible and untimely death. And it’s only the fate of the world that hangs in the balance, not the fate of the entire universe.”

“Ah, yes, my fears are put completely at ease,” said Illaeara, the lights that represented her eyes flickering scarlet in irritation.

“Great!” said Starflower, her face glowing with happiness, “so you’ll-”

“I don’t think she understood that you were being sarcastic,” said Esthaenie, glowering from behind the purple rims of her glasses.

“Sarcastic?” said Starflower, deflating, “Ah. I see. Your humor is very subtle.”

“Honey, as sarcasm goes, Illaeara’s is about as subtle as a brick to the face,” Danie said, running a hand through neon green hair, “anyways, this mission is way too large-scale. We’ve collected the bounty for saving this town from orcs. Our job is over. You can even have a couple thousand gold pieces, if Westward is okay with it, because you saved-”

“We accept your offer.”

The party whirled to see Westward, who was grinning at Starflower with unusual enthusiasm. Illaeara stood and folded her arms, dress and gloves rustling. “Pardon me?”

“Speaking as a lawful good,” Westward said, smiling at Starflower, “I can’t refuse help to a gir-a person in need. Anyway, if it’s true that the entire world’s fate hangs in the balance, it concerns all of our safety.”

He smiled back at his party. The smile faltered on his face as he met Danie’s incredulous stare, Esthaenie’s doubtful grimace, and Illaeara’s two lights in the dark of her hood, slanted in annoyance. “So our opinions don’t matter, then?” Esthaenie said, “We haven’t even heard what the threat is, specifically. It could be a god or titan. This could be completely out of our league.”

“I agree with the avariel,” Illaeara said, “we aren’t prepared to defend the entire world.”

“Wha-?” Eris said, grinning at all of them and downing another ale. She promptly passed out.

“One, we’re paying you two,” Westward indicated Danie and Esthaenie, “so you answer to me. Two, Eris hasn’t said anything against us, and three, Illaeara is outvoted.”

“We don’t have to work for you,” said Danie, her attempt at a cool snub ruined by her darting eyes and fidgeting.

“No, you don’t. And fine, Westward, let’s hear this complete stranger out. I’m sure that we’ll be fully convinced to join because of her morals and cute little puppy dog eyes. And the fact that she is a very beautiful wood elf helps! That helps you a lot.”

“I’m not that shallow, you shadowy little-”

“Three billion gold pieces apiece.”

Danie spit out her ale and Illaeara’s eye-lights turned white with pure shock. Westward gasped and Esthaenie looked ready to jump out of her chair. Eris lifted her head from the table, completely sober, and shouted, “I’M IN!”

Esthaenie jumped in her chair and swatted Eris with a cloaked wing. Eris smirked at Esthaenie before turning back to Starflower. “Look, whatever you want me to do, I’m in. When can we start?”

Illaeara rolled her eye-lights at Eris’s sudden interest and turned back to Starflower, stiff with shock. “How do you… how do you have that sort of money?”

She watched Starflower’s face for any sort of deception, but there was none that she could discern. The druid gave her a coy smile and said, “My benefactor has taken an interest in your adventures. Join me on my quest, and she’ll reward you with kings’ ransoms.”

“I’m in,” Illaeara heard Danie say. Esthaenie nodded with a hesitant jerk of her head, flexing her hand over the hilt of her sword. Illaeara huffed at Westward’s self-satisfied smirk.

The rest of her party turned to her, and Illaeara glared back. “Please tell me you aren’t taking her claims seriously.”

Esthaenie shrugged. “Well, I’m still suspicious, true, but if she truly does have the funds… I could start fresh.”

The others, to Illaeara’s irritation, didn’t seem to question Starflower’s offer. Illaeara pulled the avariel aside.

“This druid is likely to be unhinged,” muttered Illaeara, glaring sidelong at the beautiful wood elf, “we need to see proof at the very least.”

“Agreed,” Esthaenie said, “but if she does somehow have the funds…”

“I understand,” Illaeara said, “I’m glad you’re here. I’m usually alone in my suspicions.”

“If we have proof-” Estaenie began, before Starflower’s lilt interrupted.

“Ale is on me! Open a tab!” Star called to the bartender. Illaeara snorted in disbelief as greedy villagers rushed to order ales.

“Perhaps we do,” Illaeara smiled. 

Part 3 of the story comes tomorrow!

I say! That was exceptional Brooke! Exceptional!
