Born in [[Leth Deriel]] to Jaraant Haadraan and Yulianne Sora'Zuhaich |
Born in [[Leth Deriel]] to a displaced [[Mountain Elf]] named Jaraant Haadraan and to a spoiled [[Forest Elf]], Yulianne Sora'Zuhaich at the family home called Zuhaich Hall and fostered in Aesry under the Seamstress [[Miakoda]] to learn a practical trade, Ysselt was also given ample educational opportunities. |
||
Always a religious child, Ysselt considered joining clerical service, but found the guild not suited to her. Instead, she happened on the recently re-opened bard guild and (to the dismay of her mother) joined the guild. During this time she also met her half-brother, [[Taleek]] Ana-Kaidin (now [[Rippentropp]]), a product of one of her father's many dalliances. |
|||
It was unfortunate then, for Yulianne to be married to the man she was. For every proper fork placement and lace handkerchief folding session Ysselt had with Yulianne, Jaraant provided two more lessons in fun and excitement. If her mother did not think it was important or seemly for her to learn to play an instrument, Jaraant bought two instruments and taught her (or hired someone to teach her) to play both. With this hodge-podge of education Ysselt grew to disdain her mother's teachings and rapidly fell into a rambunctious course of life with her father that including riding, hunting and falconry. |
|||
As time passed, Ysselt's mother began to look for a suitable husband for her daughter. Yulianne objected to the man her daughter was keeping company with, [[Alzbar]] Raizonglin and feeling bound by duty, Ysselt succumbed to the pressure of her mother and married [[Mazrian]] Daemondred in 389AV. |
|||
When Ysselt was old enough to chose her own way in life, she toyed with the idea of joining clerical service. Finding the life not for her she settled, quite by accident, into the [[Bard]]'s Guild much to the dismay and objection of her mother who did not think the profession suitable. |
|||
Time passed and Ysselt grew in her chosen profession, as well as aged, her parents began to seek a suitable husband for her. Not wanting to be married to someone she did not know, Ysselt objected strongly to this as she had found the person she would call the "one great love" of her life. Unfortunately, this love was also highly unsuitable. Although Ysselt tried for many years to get her parents to relent, she could not even charm her father into letting her have her own way. It was with a heavy heart that she had to ostensibly break relations with [[Alzbar]] Raizonglin. |
|||
Ysselt tried very hard to find someone who would both please herself and her mother's hard nosed snobbery. and a number of potential suitors came and went. Her mother was not pleased until [[Mazrian]] Daemondred presented himself. Ysselt never knew that a conversation between Mazrian and her mother took place, only that a few days after a benefit date auction to raise money for the [[Zoluren Orphanage]], she was informed that she would be marrying this man of whom she knew so little. Furious at first, Ysselt soon came to accept the arrangement as one that would bring honour to herself and her family name, however she has refused to speak with her mother or father since then, blaming her father for not getting her out of the situation which she found distasteful. During the time the couple were married both claimed to have respect for the other, although it is not known if this was actually true. |

While affiliated heavily in the past only with the Bard's Guild, Ysselt moved away from sole dependency on her guild and its members. Her first major association was with the first incarnation [[The Sanguine Eye]]. Lured in by a promise of knowledge, she left the group when it became clear the group was turning into the necromantic oriented-group it is today. |
|||
After leaving the group, Ysselt was on her own for a short time before she joined court life in Zoluren as Princess [[Arilana]]'s lady-in-waiting. Ysselt served in this capacity, most notably raising funds for the [[Zoluren Orphanage]] for almost four years, resigning her position shortly after her first marriage. |
|||
Joining the Eye with the intention of being inducted as a high ranking member was not Ysselt's original plan. She intended to only assist the founder, [[Meanne]] DeIredescence in a historian type position. When this was found not to be Meanne's intention rather than leave immediately, Ysselt stayed on as she was eager for the new knowledge the group could provide her. Eventually her ties with the group were severed and her loyalty shifted. |
|||
After some time, Ysselt moved to Ilithi, where she was honoured to meet Queen [[Morganae]] who charged her with the care of [[Alrina]], a position she held until Alrina retired to the Chateau on [[Ain Ghazal]], the home of the Rose Sisters with Sister [[Vethine]]. This position was held concurrently with her tenure as [[Official_Positions|Emissary]] to the Mountain Court. When all Ambassadorial positions were terminated by order of the Ferdahl in 397AV, Ysselt became unattached to the Ilithi Court. |
|||
After severing her ties with the Eye, Ysselt began something of a search for herself. Unmarried at the time, she would sequester herself for days in her home. It was after a year of such behaviour that she was asked to accompany [[Paschein]], former Zoluren Court Advisor, on a mission to [[Ulf'Hara Keep]]. During this visit, Ysselt found Princess [[Arilana]] quite ill, having suffered her first miscarriage. With the other assembled parties, Ysselt tried to soothe the Princess the best she could, and found herself rather drawn to the seemingly fragile woman. |
|||
Currently, she has taken a somewhat more religious bent, and has been travelling around Kermoria spreading the blessings and love of Peri'el. She reappears occasionally at her own whim to revisit with family and friends. |
|||
After this, Ysselt was asked to place her name in the ring to become Princess Arilana's Lady-In-Waiting, a position recently vacated by [[Natashya]]'s lady [[Alrina]]. The Princess, whom Ysselt once saw as frail was not so. During her interview Ysselt felt it best to hold nothing back and freely admitted her dealings with The Sanguine Eye and it was as well she had, for she later learned the Princess was already aware of it. Despite her past transgressions, Ysselt was chosen for and accepted the position as Arilana's Lady-In-Waiting. |
|||
On 389 years, 340 days AV, 9th month of Dolefaren the Brigantine, Iron Toad (2/19/2008) after nearly four years in service of Princess Arilana and Zoluren, Ysselt submitted her resignation to the Princess. This resignation was accepted, and as such, Ysselt is no longer officially attached to the Zoluren Court. |
|||
Lost, and without a sense of purpose, Ysselt decided (for unknown reasons) to venture to Ilithi and try her hand at the militia. The life was not for her however, and she resigned after little more than four short months, shortly after the [[Shosandu]] for the year 392 AV. Shortly thereafter, her then husband, Mazrian, began a group of mercenary-type warriors calling themselves the [[Flying Company]], a group that Ysselt is not affiliated with - although she is on good terms with all the members. |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
In 393AV, Ysselt had the great honour of meeting Queen [[Morganae]] and her son, Prince [[Fayne]] in Ilithi, along with a handful of other citizens. After being called to speak, Ysselt was given the unenviable task of being nursemaid to Lady [[Alrina]], a position she held until Alrina retired to the Chateau on [[Ain Ghazal]], the home of the Rose Sisters with Sister [[Vethine]]. |

When interviews for positions in the Shard court opened up in 394AV, Ysselt applied for two positions, [[Official_Positions|Court Historian]] and [[Official_Positions|Emissary]] to the Mountain Court. Never expecting to get the Emissary position, she applied herself to focusing more on the Historian position and was shocked when she was actually named Emissary. Unfortunately, not everyone agreed with the announcement, and while she was making her way to the dais of the Great Tower to meet the Ferdahl, an incident occurred in which [[Xelten]] Tyrsin murdered Ysselt. With trepidation, Ysselt is trying to do her best at the position, though some say the murder has shaken her confidence. |
