Appearance
Seraphyne is the epitome of Fey grace — tall and slender, with silken golden-blonde hair braided in jeweled filigree and eyes that shimmer between sapphire and teal. Her attire blends elven regality with natural elegance: long flowing robes of pale ivory and gold, trimmed with luminous leaves that shift hue with her emotions.
Personality
Composed, eloquent, and deeply empathetic. Seraphyne leads with quiet authority, preferring wisdom over wrath. Her calm presence conceals a will of steel — the kind that bends the hearts of kings without a raised voice. Though grief lingers beneath her grace, she channels it into understanding, believing that love and conviction must always coexist. To her, Alyndra's defection was not rebellion, but evolution — a reflection of courage misunderstood by lesser minds.
History
Born into the height of Fey nobility, Seraphyne rose through the ranks not through ambition, but through unparalleled emotional clarity and magical empathy. She served as an emissary between the Fey Courts and Asgard's Silver City for nearly a century before assuming the matron's mantle. When Alyndra chose to follow Azarox Kuroishi into the Void, Seraphyne defied the expectations of her peers by offering her blessing instead of condemnation — declaring that 'light must sometimes walk through shadow to see itself.'
Synopsis
Now serving as Archmagus of Sylv'arien and counselor to Queen Mila Feywild, Seraphyne guides her people with unwavering grace and quiet conviction. Though her heart aches for Alyndra's absence, she continues to defend her daughter's choice as one of purpose rather than betrayal.
