Olmoro

Appearance
There is little to Olmoro Flamequil that would be considered abnormal to her kin and, rest assured, any visible abnormalities are just that, not marks of overbearing uniqueness. Her pallor is colorless, white as a trout’s belly. Her fel-green eyes seem magnified by the contrast between their coloration and her skin tone. Like any individual without extensive physical training, her figure remains soft and feminine. She walks with a clear limp, favoring her right leg; she travels with a walking stick, or at least with a weapon that can serve as such.

The aroma of honey and vanilla lingers on her and her garments, masking the typical stenches associated with travel. Luminous prayer beads are wrapped loosely around her left arm. A pair of silver rings sit on her right hand, each stamped with the seals of the Sha’tar and the Argent Crusade. When not distracted by a book, she studies others with polite curiosity.

Personality
Olmoro is driven by investigation and appreciation for the world. Her concern is for the betterment of her people, though her sense of race seems to have expanded to acts that benefit the Horde as a whole. Her mannerisms reveal an easygoing nature, though her occasional sardonic quips reveal that she is not oblivious to how unrealistic her idealism is. Nevertheless, she simply wishes to “do good” for the sake of the action.

Her intellectual background is most noticeable in her hobbies, primarily keeping a journal and compulsively reading most anything she comes across. Her curiosity seems boundless, boredom prompting odd conspiracy theories and otherwise occupying herself with whatever crosses her mind. She’s most at peace when meditating, which helps to curb her mana addiction, and while cooking and fishing. Due to her isolated childhood, she hesitates in social situations and shows awkward tendencies when among strangers, prone to speaking in an embarrassingly blunt manner. Her adoration of animals is most apparent by her chronic need to pet and treat hunters’ animal companions.

History
Olmoro was born and raised within the safety of Silvermoon’s walls to Thandril Flamequil, Farstrider scout slain by the Amani before his daughter’s birth, and Aluera Flamequil, an apothecary with an extensive knowledge of herb-based remedies. Aluera saw that her daughter was well-educated while her grandfather entertained her with stories derived from his own history. In spite of his son’s death, Veldrin pushed her to maintain the family’s tradition to serve Quel’thalas as a Farstrider. Olmoro’s own interests surfaced as she grew; a curious intellectual, her aspirations included cartography, historical and archaeological research, and investigating magical components.

Olmoro survived the Lich King’s assault on Quel’thalas, but mana sickness and her injuries crippled her both emotionally and physically. Finding solace in Prince Sunstrider’s proclaimed intentions, she became a fanatical supporter. Her health stopped her from joining his expedition into Outland; she departed on her pilgrimage as soon as she had adequately recovered. Olmoro left Quel’thalas with only a logbook and the clothing on her back, head bursting with dreams of reuniting with her beloved prince.

She arrived at Falcon Watch unscathed; though her fellow pilgrims intended to remain at the post and wait for news, the troubling rumors concerning Sunstrider spurred her further into Outland. The flight to Shattrath nearly cost her life, but learning the truth to the rumors proved deserving of the gamble. The news of Sunstrider’s activities in the Netherstorm and his dealings with the Burning Legion left her despondent and hopeless.

She sought guidance; in grief, Olmoro began meditating at the Terrace of Light. The Naaru A’dal reached out to her and, through her lengthy meditations, awakened her to the Light. With A’dal’s endorsement, Olmoro approached the Aldor for instruction. Though a blood elf, she was begrudgingly accepted her as a neophyte; she would later become a welcomed presence on the rise. She remained in Shattrath through the war for the Sunwell, treating the warriors of the Shattered Sun Offensive. With the Sunwell’s revival, A’dal revealed to Olmoro that she would be “one of many” Sin’dorei to find the Light.

When news of the Argent Crusade’s formation reached Shattrath, Olmoro requested to join their cause. With A’dal’s blessing, she left her first home since her family’s murder for the frozen north. As a battle-priestess, she joined skirmishes against the Scourge in Icecrown and assisted in efforts to bring down Naxxramas. Of the brewing conflicts between the Horde and the Alliance, she regards them as utterly idiotic, seemingly fatigued by the war in Northrend. This exhaustion does not stop her from reacting with hostility towards high elves.

With the death of the Lich King, Olmoro has returned to Quel’thalas. With her commission from the Argent Crusade, she has purchased a small home on Quel’Danas. A chance meeting with Elodei Khrow has left her with a new direction, pointing to the merchant vessel Siren under the company of the Sunveil Corsairs. Her studies have expanded to anatomy and mundane doctoring and healing techniques to round out her abilities as a physician to the crew.

Extra Information

 * Enjoys her leisure time in Silvermoon, mulling over her research and otherwise meandering about the streets, lost in thought. Of her odd habit of walking in circles, Olmoro claims that it focuses her thoughts.


 * Skilled with languages; fluent in Orcish and Thalassian. Her knowledge of Common has faded, as she has neglected practicing it in favor of learning the language of her Horde allies. She has learned a splattering of Taurahe, Gutterspeak, and Troll; most words and phrases she has picked up are insults. Her efforts to learn Draenei have been unsuccessful.


 * Will not attack Draenei in a PvP setting due to her loyalties to Shattrath.


 * Hostile to warlocks, especially those of her race.
