Name: Lealle Laeranir
Character Nickname(s): Lina
Gender: Female
Age: 29
Race: Human
Relatives: Father, mother, and a younger sister.
Occupation: Royal Guard of the military, in command of one of the five Ladesian outposts.
Title / Rank: Field Marshal
Physical Qualities / Appearance: Humans tend to be of an average make, although there are those who tend to be either extremely shorter than most or far taller. Such is not the case with Lealle and her family. Lealle stands at roughly 5 feet 8 inches, although in her officers regalia she appears 6 feet tall. Ladesian military regulations stipulate that she must maintain a certain body type, so with regular exercise and a strict diet she keeps physically fit, weighing in at 129 pounds. While she might be seen as intimidating to some, she is very graceful and at her core she has her needs. Much like her mother Lealle is fair of face with no blemishes or signs of scarring, and yet curiously enough she has a set of different color eyes: one of deep gray and the other a dark blue. Shiny black hair adorns her head and falls just shy of her shoulders, a few bangs falling in front of her face, and the rest tucked behind her ears. Lealle has a pair of large, full breasts that have naturally attracted the eyes of most of the male soldiers that she works with closely, although few would approach her in any sexual manner.
Clothing: For the majority of her life in service Lealle has only known one thing: the more suited you are for battle the better your chances of survival. As such the Ladesian military has different battle gear for each soldier class. As a Field Marshal Lealle is entitled to the more ‘elegant’ and also more powerful equipment. The Field Marshal Aegis is a set specifically designed for that particular class and consists of a golden lamellar faceguard, golden chest plate, gold pauldrons, gloves, boots and legplates. Officers of the various branches carry an insignia that displays their allegiance to the monarchy on their shoulder, and a dark blue cloak is wrapped around the back.
If Lealle isn’t in her Aegis set she can usually be seen wearing a long shirt, the hem of which falls a bit below the belt. Fine patterns adorn the tunic, and is a piece of clothing usually reserved for nobility. She wears a normal belt that holds up her loose pants, and smooth black boots are on her feet.
Weapon: She carries a swiftblade nicknamed the Frostguard. While not a ’legendary’ sword, it is nonetheless of great importance and has a history all of its own. The sword came into her possession after her outpost successfully slaughtered a marauding caravan of Orcs. Apparently the Orc caravan had pillaged an ancient city of the Elves and brought with them long forgotten treasures. Lealle took for her own the Frostguard, and it has been in her keeping ever since.
Miscellaneous Items / Trinkets: Officer Insignia, a silver bracelet that she wears around her wrist, and a turquoise pendant that she wears around her neck. A gem inlaid knife is usually worn around her belt, a gift from a close friend of her family.
Personality: There are certain traits that one needs in order to succeed in life. While each person is different and unique in the own way, excelling at one whereas someone else excels at another, Lealle has developed into a woman that practically combines all the traits into one. She has grown up to respect her elders while still being reckless enough to make her own choices and discover the consequences. Such recklessness can be seen by others as courage, owing to the fact that the Human Spirit is filled with pride and determination and foolhardy as well.
In any case, despite her seriousness and dedication to her duty, Lealle is fairly cheerful, carrying a smile on her face. And yet she has been known for her fits of unexplained aggression and violence, and mood swings of depression where you would find more cheer in a graveyard. Perhaps she is starting to wear thin…
Background / History: The Laeranir family is one of the few families in Ladesa that contains some Elvish blood, although the amount is practically negligible. Her great-grandfather was one of the masons that helped design and construct the current Castle Keep, and as such her family has retained a certain ‘status’ among the nobility. Her father, Adeled, is the current scribe of the King while her mother, Temaia, is one of the Queens chosen handmaidens. It was only fitting that Lealle choose a path for herself that bound her to her country, and so she chose a life of military service. It is more than likely that her current rank in the military could be attributed to her ties to the monarchy, but she has proven herself on more than one occasion to be a tactical genius and overall strong defender of the regions. Currently she is stationed on one of the five regional outposts, those being the first line of defense to the country.
History of Ladesa: Humanity had evolved in many ways over the centuries. In fact, there soon became apparent splits within the species, one of which evolved on its own to become the fabled Elvish race. While not immortal, the Elves were nonetheless more mystical than their human counterparts. Each race grew stronger, more technologically advanced, and yet more spiteful of the other. Wars broke out, and in time each race was brought to the brink of annihilation. It is a sad fact that tragedy often brings people together, and so from the ashes of the many wars the two began to finally work together. Society recovered, and currently both races exist somewhat peacefully on the planet.
The Humans founded Ladesa, a thriving center of culture and human ingenuity, a realm devoted to the Light and towards ethical studies, while the Elves fortified themselves in Gaia. There are various cities and regions between each two power poles, but hegemony so far has been preserved. As it stands, Ladesa is divided into two main parts: the main town which holds various shops and markets, pubs and inns, etc. It is here that most of the trading takes place. The other sector is the fortified zone that holds the Keep and a handful of ornate Towers that house the Mages, Clerics, and Warlocks. The King and Queen take up abode in the Keep, but have been known to make their way in secret to the village to mingle with the commoners.
