Biara's Profile

This is the profile for Biara Sunfire, who is a Blood Elf (Sin'dorei) Magistrix of Quel'Thalas in World of Warcraft.

Physical characteristics:

5’3”, 125 lbs, Fel Green Eyes

Home: Silvermoon City

Birthplace: Eversong Woods

Motto: With knowledge comes victory.

Biara wears some of the latest fashions of Silvermoon, especially favoring dresses that can double as casters robes when practicing her arts. She takes pride in her appearance and her nails are carefully manicured and pedicured with magic sparkling on each one to enhance their beauty. Her hair is artfully styled, the flame red locks distinctive and visible for quite some distance.

Like all of the Sin’dorei, Biara herself is beautiful, elegant, and lithe. She moves with a careful grace and her small hands and fingers seem particularly adept at making the minute, careful gestures that are required for spellcasting. Biara has few outstanding traits, but one thing is very obvious about her even to a distant observer. This trait was most definitely caused by magic and includes a large set of faintly glowing arcane wards on her right cheek. The wards may glow brighter when she is casting spells and tend towards a light blue, arcane-like color. If one were to see her in less clothing, similar wards run from the center of her chest near her heart and wrap down and around the left side of her body, stopping just above the left hip. These wards also glow.

For those familiar with arcane magic, the wards are clearly powerful marks of protection, spell resistance, and arcane power. The Magistrix’s body is a testament to her passion for magic, and the glowing protective symbols are like an art form in themselves.

Biara’s clothes, and especially her belt, are adorned with magical trinkets, reagents, and other arcane effects obviously used in spellcasting, and it is clear that she has a strong passion for magic and the arcane.

Judging by the elf's appearance, it is clear that this Magistrix has prepared herself for any eventuality, with more than enough magic to spare. In these dark times, she is the pinnacle of magical warfare, and one would be wise to approach her with caution.

Most of the members of House Dayfire were away on holiday when the scourge destroyed Silvermoon. Their pleasure yacht was completely unaffected by the disaster, and when they returned, they were horrified to discover that at least one of their summer homes had been damaged by the attack, and many of their servants had become Wretched.

Having an ample supply of magical artifacts and sources of magic at their disposal, House Dayfire resolved to help strengthen the new Sin’dorei order, and provided much funding for the reconstruction of Silvermoon.

Biara, having seen firsthand the destructive potential of magic in the hands of outsiders, resolved to aid her House by learning more of the magical arts. She was already well versed in the arcane, so in a bold move she came up with a scheme to spy on the Kirin Tor to gain their secrets. Using powerful magic, she spent many years disguised amongst the human realms, learning their secrets, and studying the Kirin Tor from afar.

Biara returned to her House with all of the knowledge she stole during this espionage. Both her own personal power and that of her House have been greatly advanced thanks to her efforts, and if some amongst her enemies pause in combat, thinking something about her seems familiar…well, that’s just an advantage to be exploited.

RECENT EVENTS

Through Biara, House Dayfire has established an extensive network of Sin’dorei contacts and allies, and has begun a campaign of terror against the alliance and those who would seek the destruction of Silvermoon City. Biara relentlessly pursues this goal, willing to sacrifice anything for her people.

Biara’s quest to obtain the Spellbook of Helcular and learn necromantic magic had failed utterly and left her physically marked and cursed. Although dealt a serious setback, she resolved to continue her quest to create a new magical body similar to the Kirin Tor, but made up almost exclusively of Sin’dorei and other powerful spellcasters of the horde.

Her reckless overuse of magic has slain countless dozens of her own allies and friends, and eventually lead to her capture, trial, and imprisonment at the hands of the Kirin Tor. During her stay in the Violet Hold, she uncovered a plot by the Cult of the Damned to overrun Dalaran with scourge, and foiled it from within the prison. Her act of redemption, as well as a change in heart about the nature of magic, earned her freedom, and during the battle finally released her from the curse that necromancy had left on her body.

Biara has since experimented further with various forms of magic, all in an attempt to increase her understanding of all forms of power to aid her people. She has learned well the nature of dark necromantic magic, as well as a variety of other forms. Knowledge is the ultimate power, and everything she has learned is bent towards the prosperity of Silvermoon.

THE FALL OF HOUSE DAYFIRE

During Biara's experimentation with magic she made a critical error; she brought back the spirit of her long dead mother, Selun'athiel. The spirit, created from scourge magic, was of a woman who had died in the throes of madness and rage and had taken innocent lives in the process. This malign being resumed her existence in the form of the priestess Seluna Dawnsea, plotting her revenge upon her wayward daughter and all who allied with her.

After years of planning, Seluna finally struck, breaking the wards on House Dayfire's spire and allowing Alliance attackers to enter the structure, slaughtering many of the inhabitants and causing the rest to flee as the Spire burned in magical flames. Biara herself survived this difficult time, but remains hunted by the evil spirit of her mother, ever only one step ahead of her hired blades.

THE RISE OF HOUSE SUNFIRE

Reunited at last with her sister Kyliska Sunblade, the two have used what little fortune remained in Kyliska's coffers to rebuild a small House. Immediately they moved on the holdings of Biara's mother, seizing valuable property and supplies from House Dawnsea under the guise of eliminating a source of corruption in Silvermoon.

Emboldened, Biara and Kyliska have taken up a new name and forged the beginnings of the mighty House Sunfire.
