Backstory

Saelie's family was poor and superstitious, and when Saelie began to develop magic, her parents immediately turned to the church to try and get her "fixed." After a few years of rituals meant to "cleanse" her of her magic, Saelie found out that sorcery was not, in fact, the product of demon possession. Her parents refused to listen, so before she was even a century old, Saelie ran away from home to become an adventurer and hone her skills as a sorcerer. With nowhere to turn, the life of a mercenary seemed appealing, so she began taking jobs with parties, using her magic of foresight to guide and protect her companions. She eventually became well known as a mage, and helped defeat the dragon Nmoa, which became her most famous feat. After this, she married her party mate, Keribrar, and stopped adventuring, having found the family she lacked for so long. (aww)

Though it is a little uncommon among elves, Saelie went with a human tradition and took her husband's name when they married. She made a transparent excuse at the time, something about living around humans so long, but the truth of the matter was that she was all too happy to sever the last ties to her old family, who rejected her.

Goals

As a youth, Saelie was all but disowned from her family, who saw her sorcery as an insult and a curse. Because of this, family is very important to her as a person, and she always desired a large family, but was unfortunately only able to have one child in her lifetime. She prizes her husband and son above all else (though she secretly hopes for grandchildren) and considers herself very fortunate to have them in her life. Saelie has never regained contact with her old family, but takes a sort of cold pleasure in the fact that her magic brought her fame and happiness, when her parents said it was such a curse.

Combat

Saelie specializes in divination, which is far more useful for avoiding battle entirely than it is for actual combat. Though she picked up some abjuration spells as well, Saelie also spends a lot of her time in battle as an archer. She also likes magical items such as staffs and wands, but is a little paranoid of cursed items, so she never pursued them much in her time as an adventurer, though she does have a small collection now that she is retired.

Relationships

In spite of her past (or maybe because of it), family and friends are very important to Saelie. She spends a lot of time with her friends, apprentices, and other peers, and will gladly have a long conversation with anyone, at any time, for any reason.
