History
Kierienserai, Kiera for short, spent most of early life as most common elves in Semberholme. Born to a father who was a hunter, and a mother who had a modestly successful pastry shop in the city, her childhood was relatively tame. When Kiera came of an age to decide her own future, she decided to take both the skills she learned from her father, and offer her aid in thwarting the forces of Zhentil Keep along the northern edges of the wood.
During her time with the elven scouts, Kiera worked as a hunter, guide, and messenger. She worked against the Zhentarim forces, leading them into traps whenever they entered the wood and helping the elven soldiers with tracking, hunting, and running messages. During one trip from a squad of elven skirmishers, and the city, Kiera was captured by a Zhentarim patrol.
She was in the 'care' of the Zhentarim army at Zhentil Keep with quite a few other prisoners captured in the area. After weeks of torturous existence at the hands of the Zhentaril she was to be moved, with other prisoners, to work a remote mining operation east of Cormanthor. During the move a band of wood elven wardens, ambushing such groups of Zhentarim, attacked the caravan and freed the prisoners. Non-elves were tended to, given food and water, and sent on their way. Kiera and two other elves were taken back to the wood elf clan home and cared for until they were ready to leave.
Kiera stayed with the Shah'in for several years. At first, she was so traumatized that she did not want to venture from the secluded security of the clanhome. Eventually she grew to love the clan and their society, they way in the wood, and eventually the teachings of one of their priestesses. She sent word to her parents that she was well, but was going to learn the path of Solonor, and the ways of her ancient cousins.
After her time with the Shah'in, Triel decided it was time to take her knowledge, and her new calling into the world again. She traveled to Semberholme first, to spend time with her parents, then to travel the further along the coast to see where Solonor's path would take her.
Personality
Kiera is quiet and polite, kind, generous, and friendly to a fault. She experienced so many horrible things in her recent past that her personality could have gone either way. She chose to not walk down the easy path of hatred and bitterness, and instead seeks to throw the balance the other way in hopes that another soul that may be as hurt as hers might find some hope. She is staunchly defensive of the weak, and innocent, clinging to an ideal that those who cannot defend themselves need someone who can, whether they be people or nature.
Much of her personality is also due to her mother who taught her to be polite, mind her manners, and work hard all in the hopes that the world might accept her daughter if she passed on these traits. Her father taught her to see things through to the end, provide for those who cannot, and maintain the symbiotic balance between civilization and nature.
Appearance
Kiera is average for an elf, lithe, athletic, but feminine. She is pretty but not what some consider gorgeous. Most of her charms are in her personality rather than looks. Her hair is bluish black and her hair and eyes also bear the bluish tint common among her people. She is meticulous about her hygiene, as well as the cleanliness of her arms and armor.
Unseen by most due to it being incomplete, Kiera has the beginnings of an intricate tribal tattoo on her side from hip to arm pit. It appears to be the body and wings of a dragon where the incomplete wings will cross her back, neck and head up her own neck and possibly face, and the tail may reach down her hip and legs when complete.
