Elenbarathi o Morn Sigil

A Healer and Bard of the Sindar, and of ancient lineage, she was 625 years old when she left her city, Hobas Methenost on the southern coast, to follow her Prince into exile. Journeying north-east into the wilderness with a small band of their Kin, they settled in the place they named Morn Sigil. Their peace there did not long endure, for enemies had followed them. The young Prince was the first to die, struck down by a hidden foe, and one by one his Warriors too were slain.

Her beloved cousin Kharas First Sword was the last to fall. Refusing to accept his death, she wove a magick beyond her strength into the Lament she made for him, and followed his spirit into the Grey Waste, the death-realm, to sing him back. She did not succeed, and was trapped herself by the spell she had made, doomed to exist as a memoryless ghost... a dream whisper on the wind.

Five centuries passed, and then the sad ghost met V'soul, the Master of the Castle of Platinum in the plane of Limbo. Because of him, the spell was fulfilled: Elen regained her corporeality, but did not know that within the Black Keep of the death-realms, Kharas o Morn Sigil also woke and lived again.

Elen Spirit Singer:
Her natural power is to make spirit-connections through music and dreams; this is enhanced by the harp she made and consecrated to spirit-magick as a young maiden. She has much practical knowledge of herbs and first aid, but her main healing power is psychic in nature. With the harp, she can heal madness, memory-loss, and spirit-possession, ease pain and sorrow, calm fear, bring sleep or forgetfulness, and awaken hope and energy. Her music catches the attention of helpful spirits and draws them to her; she can also ward a place from entry by spirits and some magickal beings.

For reasons of their own, V'soul's servants, the mysterious entities known as the weavers, altered both her and her Kin by magick. Upon Elen they bestowed the power of Water and increased her healing abilities to a large extent; under their tutelage her skill in the use of magick continues to increase. Though she still thinks of herself as Elvish, in truth she has become something else... almost as much a denizen of Limbo as of the Prime Material Plane; as much at home in V'soul's endless Castle of Platinum as she is in her Clan's cozy treehouse near the waterfall at Morn Sigil.
