[&]List Of Personality
Alyial was a gentle elf, soft spoken and creative. Though she only lived with the Sun Folk for her childhood, she never lost those Sun Folk characteristics. She loved to dance, to sing, and to create. As the Go-Backs traveled, she and Oryn learned how to tan leather together. In her later years, she taught fawns to gather, sew, and use their first weapons, slings. She also served as an adviser to many in the tribe.

[&]History: Alyial was born a few decades before the battle for the Little Palace in the Sun Village; it was the second such battle, so she grew up surrounded by Sun Villagers, but also Go-Backs who'd been left behind in the aftermath. Eventually, other Go-Backs tried again for the Little Palace, and she was injured in the battle and put into wrapstuff. Her parents, Aura and Valygar, stayed awake during the thousands' years long disappearance of the Palace, but as he aged, Valygar grew more and more concerned about their safety...and more determined that safety lay outside the desert. In the night, he stole away with his lifemate and cocooned daughter.

She awoke in the desert, her parents hardened and scared; they'd overestimated themselves and their abilities...but they were able to heal her, as they'd taken a few precious herbs from the Sun Village; the rest of the elves in wrapstuff were waiting for a healer, and no one wanted to risk awakening the injured and hope herbs worked. From there, the trio wandered. Aura was a shielder, so she could protect them from the elements a little, but none of them were terribly skilled hunters. They decided to head towards sun-comes-up, to a large mountain range. After crossing the burning waste, they found a small forest. Relieved her family was safe, Aura died peacefully in her sleep.

Still, Alyial and Valygar had never been in a forest, but food was easier to find. They survived on roots and fruits, but that was all Valygar could do; survive. Moons later, he died of a broken heart. They'd only lasted a turn. Alyial decided then to climb the mountains, so she could at least see what was around her, but she didn't realize the hardships she was in for; she'd never seen snow, or even know such a thing existed. After a couple hard days of climbing with very little food and tattered leathers, she collapsed. That's when Allegro found her.

She joined the Go-Back tribe and traveled Abode for centuries. Quickly, she found a lifemate in Allegro, discovering each others' soul names. She learned to tan and make leathers, and always wanted children, but was never able to have any. She was killed by a snowbear while gathering her favorite flowers...the deep blue ones she used to dye her own clothes.
