Beginnings
Lady Renai was born the child of an elven mother and human father. They
met when her father stumbled into a secret village of elves, and they
fell in love. Their love was forbidden, however, and her father was
forced to leave. Renai was raised by her mother, both of them shunned by
their elven kin. She was not allowed to play with the other children, or
learn the elven secrets, and lived a miserable childhood listening to
her mother cry herself to sleep every night over her lost love.
A New Life
At the tender age of 12, Renai was forced to leave the only home she
knew and was abandoned in the forest by her mother's kin. She quickly
learned the ways of the woods, honing her skills and teaching herself
the skills of a ranger. At 17 she sought out her father, only to find he
had no knowledge of her existence, and had remarried, raised a daughter,
and died peacefully in his sleep. Renai vowed revenge on the elves, for
they had denied her a father she would never know and the happiness she
could have had growing up.
Wandering
Training consumed every waking moment of her life for the next years of
her life. She wanted to be strong enough, smart enough, to make those
that had wronged her pay for their injustices. But as she fought also to
protect her forest, she realized that she could not truly keep something
as beautiful as the woodlands sacred, if there was hatred in her heart.
She chose that day to put her vengeance behind her, and traveled to
Hollow.
A New Home
One day Renai stumbled upon the lands of Hollow. She met friends who
agreed to help her in her quest to help those in need and protect her
forest from the evils of the world. She met a dryad named Lilly, the
sister she had always been wanting. Sadly, Lilly was killed by the royal
forces who invaded Larket under Vyrick Drakenheart. However, Ren
continues to fight for the good of the lands and hopes to one day see
peace restored to the place she now calls home.
