History and Background

  • Born on the 40th day of the 5th month of Uthmor the Giant in the year of the Silver Unicorn, 336 years after the victory of Lanival the Redeemer.
  • Given the birth name Xyaria Gracelie Rae’zayne Drakosa.
  • Raised in Ain Ghazal.
  • Considers herself Celestial Elf.


Arsenyka was given what some Elven clans consider a heart-name by her grandmother, whom she only refers to by her Elvish directive, Amona, when she was a toddler. This name was shortened further by an empath after leaving home to pursue her path in the Moon Mage Guild. Unlike most clans, who consider the heart-name the most private name, Nyka chooses to be known by the name Amona bestowed upon her, and only reveals her birth name to those she considers very close.

Not much is known (or is told) about Nyka’s mothers family, as the matron is very closed-mouth about her past. Arsenyka does not know any family from her maternal side, although she remembers overhearing mention of siblings in her youth. What Nyka does know, she tells very little of.

Nyka’s father is a retired guilded Moon Mage, although he did not join the same sect as his mother before him. Brooding and dark-eyed, he holds a deep love of enchanting and possesses a sharp, dry wit. He was a ‘soldier’ in Sorrow’s War, often regaling his daughter with stories of talking with a friend named Darkensi as they huddled in secret caves or of being dipped in boiling oil by the Lord Sorrow himself.

Arsenyka’s Amona was a guilded moon magess, a Skindancer of the Nomads of the Arid Steppe. The lady has many fascinating stories from her youth that she has shared with her granddaughter. She has been a huge influence on the girl, and it is in her footsteps that Nyka follows, eventually joining the same sect and tribe.
