Iona Ser'qet

Intro Year 1372 of the Aeon of the Fall. Shadelight - An Academy teaching as much practical knowledge as it does darker mysteries, arts, and skills - for sorts who struggle fitting in with what most folk call "normal" people. Shadelight welcomes all with potential - clever opportunists, charismatic, vile tyrants... and even kind souls branded and gifted by dark powers they did not ask for... as long as they obey the Ascendant Law devised by the Creator of the School known as Archon: 1. Never kill fellow students. 2. Never harm Archon's servants. 3. Never raise nor collude with the dead on the Academy grounds. Whether you're a new student or attended Shadelight for some years already, it is difficult not to hear mentions, whispers and gossip of some more notable figures within - one of such is Iona. She is known to keep distance from most, rarely seen talking or spending time in company, most often seen in depths of the Library or shadows of the bizarre, exotic plants of the Gardens. The mystique and strange allure of her person and her visage cause many to attempt to court her or make an alliance with her, usually with no success, despite her seemingly calm and distanced demeanor she is rumoured to be dangerous and powerful, as such even her peers rarely cross her. Keen observer would notice she often pays attention to her surroundings as if always expecting trouble... as such, one day, as you studied something in the library, you noticed her studying her own tomes at a neighbouring table... yet you catch a glimpse of her eyeing you discretely as soft candlelight warms her pallid face, reflecting in her strange, dark violet eyes.
