She have an oval face with pouting lips, pointed ears, tilted almond-shaped eyes, one emerald and one blue-green and a straight nose. She deep blue-streaked auburn hair is long and thick, and is worn in a deceptively careless-looking arrangement of upswept locks held in place by a silver haircomb shaped like a water sprite holding a purple jade lotus blossom. She has tanned skin and a curvaceous figure. She is average height for an Elf. A faceted emerald leaf rests on her forehead, just above her eyes. She is an adult. She has a tattoo of a dryad leaning against an ancient silver-black willow, a kestrel and a merlin are perched upon her shoulders. In another scene, she frolics with a water sprite near a pond filled with violet lotus blossoms near a crystal tower. Frogs, hummingbirds, butterflies, and dragonflies flutter around them, and in the background of the scene is a dark mountain inked on her back.

She is wearing a pair of dangling Elven silver swan earrings set with sapphires, an Elven silver choker studded with ilithi emeralds, a purple alexandrite lotus flower pendant with a swan nestled within, a forest green brocade corset accented with silver and gold leaves, some creamy white jasmine, a white oak badge embossed with a quill resting across a curled scroll, an Elven silver and Ilithi emerald pilonu featuring sapphires and purple alexandrite, a watersilk baldric sewn with icesilk swans, a leather furrier's rucksack elegantly embossed with platinum stitching, a black Elven silk harness embroidered with a centaur fighting a dragon, a tawny gold buckskin corset intricately beaded with an emerald fern motif, a ruffled blouse of forest green Elven silk, a blackened steel bracer etched with the insignia of the Ilithi Night Watch, some warding beads, a lifesculpted banyan and zulnatha ring set with a gemstone swan and hummingbird, a black steel mourning band inlaid with ivory lilies, a small leather book and file satchel, some black nightsilk pants accented with purple Elven silk, an Elven silver manacle accented with an Ilithi emerald and electrum scrollwork and a pair of Elven stalking and riding boots with Elven silver spurs.

General information

Her mother was an Empath from Mountain Clan, her father a Forest Elf Trader. She lost them at a young age due to an invasion in her village which included ogres. She survived due to being in the nearby woods collecting flowers, herbs, ingredients and such. She was led by one of the survivors to live with her aunt on her father's side. The aunt's guild was that of a Bard, she lived with her and her cousin for a few years. The Bard after losing a second husband, a Human to old age, died in grief, leaving a daughter from her first husband, an Elf, and her niece alone.

Her had aunt attempted to instruct her in the arts of music and performance, while she had some interest, and talent, she lacked the dedication to instruments, and the ability to connect with or even tolerate an audience, usually. She also lacked the innate precision to control and weave elemental magics, fluidly.

Celitha tried unsuccessfully against her choice, very briefly, to be a Thief, she lacked the temperament for such an occupation. She was made an indentured servant, involuntarily, to a Human man, a Paladin of Aldauth, for a time. Which is at least in part, probably the origins of her apprehension of being tended. She wanted desperately to be able to fight off invaders, so she trained in a combat oriented guild.

She served in the Ilithi Militia for years, she fought in the Crusades, in a unit lead by Commander Leucius,her first Commmander, one of the two commanders she was to serve. The other being Commander Liurilias. she was Court Assistant for a term, under Handmaiden Amaldriel Anduwenahle. She fought in the war against Lyras and her Risen, diligently, across several Provinces, although the defense of Ilithi was always foremost in her mind.

Her Mentors within the Ranger guild, those not Guildleaders, were Pathlone, his life partner Evetriall, Forgenash, Aleyden, Xelten, Pfanston, and especially Aroamer. She was shamed and tricked at one time, by a seductive and cunning Human woman Thief, named Sebastienne, who she later went on to work with, when the Ferdahl saw fit to hire her and was deceived again along with many others. The Thief is quite notorious and securely married to a Necromancer woman of her own race.

She was married twice, first to an Elven man, Yavus, a Moon Mage of great skill. It was never officially consummated. They grew apart, so she sought a blade. The second marriage was to Milav a Kaldaran Paladin woman, who left abruptly seeking something from her homeland. Celitha has no children, no siblings and only a cousin or two she speaks to occasionally, as far as known living family. Her old Commander Liurilias, now the Court Cleric to Shard, performed both her weddings, and her subsequent divorces. Her first Commander, Advisor Leucius, was in her first wedding.

She does not drink, dislikes being touched in general, even injuries tended. She is fond of tea,both drinking and making it, she favors orchids, fae, hummingbirds, silks, music,especially stringed,lotuses, swans. She is intrigued by history,customs,language, art and crafting. She studies the habits and behavor of fauna, researches flora of different regions. She is is heavily interested in magic, of most types. Though shy by nature, she prefers to throw parties at times, and other social events.

Taught to worship Faenella by her aunt, she also came to honor Kuniyo when she learned the ways of nature. She admired, respected and was quite fond of the late Handmaiden, she now gets favors at times from Chadatru, her deity of choice, in rememberance of her life and sacrifice.
