Edelyn Luitolf
Edelyn stands roughly 5'7" tall, is fair-skinned, and typically has a resilient feel about her. She has a triangular face, defined cheekbones, and angled lips. She has green eyes that are slightly on the smaller side, and blonde hair with a bit of light brown mixed in that is usually worn down or tied up with ribbons. There are a number of scars on her body, most of which are claw or bite marks from monsters, but one particular one stands out as a burn below her right shoulder blade There are also several deep arrow wounds around her left shoulder and chest she received during the Seige of Golden Farrow by D'hara during the Gold Coast War.
Edelyn entered her noble career in the service of Tol Goldora when her father, Ansil, sent a unit of men that served as his honor guard during his time as Suzerain King of Luria Ferrata known as the Akratai along with her signature weapon, the paramerion. At first, she was a simple infantry commander who led the Akritai in combat in various important battles against Westgard during the Gold Coast war, a war her father helped to proclaim while he was the Praetor of Luria Ferrata. Soon she formalized her training in stealth and shadows at the Golden Farrow academy and became a certified infiltrator, but this did not last long as she soon found herself being chosen by the Stormsage Council to be the next Tidespeaker of the Church of the Tidemother, which Edelyn believes was personally confirmed by the Tidemother herself, which is the role she continues to serve today.
Early life
The birth of Edelyn Luitolf happened in the Luitolf family home in Avengmil, which was then part of Obia'Seyla, to Ansil Luitolf and his first wife Katla Arkone. Her life up until her fifth year was largely uneventful, mostly her parents marching off to fight monsters and undead while she stayed home with Ansil's younger sisters and parents. It was then that her Aunt Svava asked the fateful question to the realm that would change the entire Luitolf family's life forever; "Who is Obeah?"
This was a huge mistake. The realm, a theocracy to said goddess, took this as an insult. Some of the more zealous even took it as her denouncing the goddess, so that night a group of inquisitors marched on the Luitolf family home and burnt the manor to the ground in the name of 'rooting out heresy'. The manor was set aflame with the family still inside and as such a lot of the family died in the flames. Those that did not either fled, or were killed by the inquisition themselves, including Edelyn's mother Katla. Edelyn's sleeping gown caught fire during the event, and she still bears a fire scar on her back from the event.
Childhood in the Lurias
After the events of that disaster, Edelyn traveled with her father to Dwilight where they settled in a realm known as Luria Nova where her father immediately went into service marching with one of the local armies. Edelyn would go many nights, sometimes weeks at a time, in the care of a hired governess name Korinna without seeing her father. This was not all bad as it happened that one Tyra Bluelake had taken her father under her wing to teach him the ways of the Lurians, and as such, Edelyn came to know quite well.
Even though Ansil would be gone for long stretches of time, he still left a curriculum for Edelyn to learn. Most of it had to do with combat skills as where they were from that was of paramount importance. From the age of six, Ansil had her training with declawed and defanged monsters within a pit at their home. Despite the apparent harmlessness, Edelyn still would receive injuries from such bouts, but this is what he knew. It was how his father raised him, and his father before that, and so on. Luckily for her, Korinna was from a local minor noble family, and when Ansil was gone as he often was, she would also have Edelyn taught in the ways of Lurian courtly manners and delights.

Ahlmet and Zoisme
Ahlmet Enver is a doctor that tended to Edelyn's wounds while within the prisons of Astrum, and Zoisme Stravos was a jailor that she befriended. The two worked together to help Edelyn escape after the Judge of Astrum assaulted her and stole all her gold despite the agreement between Tol Goldora and Astrum not to commit such actions. The two fled with Edelyn and have since been rewarded by being recognized as minor nobility within Mozyr for their efforts and information given.
