Arasael

&nbsp This is the story/history of Arasael the White Lady, and how she went from a studious Elf to a malevolent Human. (Read into it, and you'll understand what I mean from Elf to a Human)

Appearance
Known usually as the Lady in White, she usually can always be found in some attire that covers every part of her body; preferrably robes. Arasael is also known for her unique scent which radiates from her at all times. If one were to undress Arasael they would note numerous tattoos upon her, her perfect skin and complexion, and her pale white skin.

The tattoos all hold some meaning to Arasael, bearing some hint of her past life as long and tried as it is. Upon her left cheek however is a glowing blue sigil (Ancient Elven), given to her upon birth to symbolize her stature in the Elven society before the Sundering. Her tattoos include: A blue and red rose entwined with each other starts at her right palm and runs its thorny course and comes to a rest at her right shoulderblade, numerous dark stars adorn the side of her shoulders, and a tattoo of the Twilight's Hammer is printed upon her back; along with her rank printed above it.

Her eyes once a perfect pale shade of blue (As a Highborne High Elf) are now a deep shade of hazel, she bares a distinct scent of strawberries and cherries, and she miraculously bares no scars or blemishes, her hair color was once the color of a spring rose (This changed numerous times). Second War: White... Beginning to use Dark Magic: Brown/Black... Third War: Brown... Post-Third War: Brownish Red...

Personality
Known for her benevolence in her early life, she worked hard in her studies always trying to better herself. While Arasael rarely 'socializes' she can be known for her kindness, even if she does slip into bouts of random nonsense or riddles. Either way she does have a sort of haughty attitude which most Elves seem to carry with them.

When Arasael was transformed into a Human she took on a more malevolent role, she became obsessed with the Old Gods voices in her head; along with her dark magic. After her transformation she took on the name Sarenal and became a monster to everyone around her.

Birth and "Greatness"
Born to a prestigious family known for its martial and magical prowess, the House was held high in the eyes of Queen Azshara and others within the Noble families.

It would happen a week after Arasael's conception that Queen Azshara would hear word of the unusual aura that radiated from Arasael. Once alerted, Azshara and her retinue came to the House's wooden manor; seeking to take the baby from her family. Ziakus was unable to deny Azshara, and so Arasael was taken and raised within the confines of the palace.

Years of harsh training and lessons in decorum would turn her into a proper lady. Azshara found Arasael to be unique and wished to harness some of the girl's power; however the War of the Ancients drew near, and Arasael was forgotten.

War of the Ancients
Deemed a Handmaiden by the age of 17, she still worked hard in her studies; wishing to be a part of the Magi that worked within the Towers of the Palace.

When Hakkar the Houndmaster set foot into Kalimdor (The Super-Continent), Arasael would find herself beset by other-worldly whispers. Like Deathwing (Neltharion the Earth Warder), she was being whispered to by the Old Gods; they promised her greater power and strength.

Arasael defected from the wayward Highborne soon after the whispers began; driven to near insanity from the demanding voices. After weeks of wandering the Dragons' Mountains, she would eventually come across Malfurion and his "Companions". The Old Gods told her he would be useful, however Arasael denied the voices and travelled to the Ravencrest Camp; seeking to find some use in this pathetic (Her own words) war.

Finally joining the Elves, she fought hard with the Moon Guard against the enemy. As Ravencrest/Shadowsong's army drew near Zin'Azshari, Arasael witnessed the death of her mother at the hand of a demon; which she quickly slaughtered along with a few others in her path. When the Sundering finally occurred, she, along with what was left of her family, and the Highborne were exiled from Kalimdor.

Quel'thalas and Lordaeron
The finding of Quel'thalas was a difficult journey for Arasael and the others deemed now as "High Elves", though the Old Gods whispers had long since ceased; something dark still lingered in the deep recesses of her expansive mind... Sarenal. Ziakus (Arasael's Father) deemed their House name as "Dawnrunner" after Quel'thalas was founded.

Arasael continued her magical studies sometime after things had settled, however during this time she saw to the mastery of her martial skills. Ziakus and the others within the previous Convocation of Silvermoon, believed her skills could be of better use in the Human nation of Arathor to the west (Knowing that the High Elves owed a service with their aid in the Troll Wars). However she declined and shut herself away; taking her studies as being the most important task.

Numerous years would pass before Arasael would resume contact with society, she remained in Quel'thalas for a time, but eventually left when tales of Green-Skinned monstrosities attacking the west lands reached her ears. She along with other High Elves joined the Alliance of Lordaeron.

Offering not only her martial skills, but her powerful magical skills she aided the Alliance as best as she could. She fought at: Grim Batol, Thandol Span, Capitol City, Alterac, and finally Blackrock Mountain. With the Second War finally at an end, Arasael decided to live in Lordaeron for a time; she built a small home in Hillsbrad.

Arasael did marry during her time in Lordaeron, she married a nobleman of Gilneas (Just before the Greymane Wall was closed), and bore him a daughter; which she later granted to her husband just before they sealed off Gilneas.

Transformation and Quel'thalas Redux
Life in Hillsbrad was anything but easy, most of the locals called her a Witch; as she dabbled in magic taken from Orc Warlocks during the closing of the Second War. Whie she was still using the Arcane Arts, she slowly started to change, preferring the darker magics.

With the new magic in hand, the Old Gods returned; driven by their maddening voices, she began stealing away citizens in the dead of night and began experimenting on them. Arasael abandoned her name and deemed herself Sarenal, with her mastery over magic and the corrupting influence of Demonic Magic, she slowly changed; her hair once the color of dead white; became dark brown, her eyes became a fel green color, and her skin became darker.

However somewhere down the line, Sarenal failed a task given to her by the Old Gods, her punishment came in the form of a body transformation; they warped her into a Human, they had found some amusement in this.

The denizens eventually believed that Sarenal had killed the Elven Witch, they found her to be even worse. On a winters night, the people led a mob to Sarenal home and attempted to kill her, however Sarenal expected as much and escaped sometime before the mob arrived at her home. She fled northward, back to Quel'thalas.

Fleeing North she was deemed by other citizens to be one of the weird folks (Cultists within the Cult of the Damned) who gathered in Andorhal, as she wore dark clothing and kept her face concealed.

Upon reaching the gates of Quel'thalas, she was allowed entry; however she was closely followed. Sarenal fled to the manor of the Dawnrunner House in the western section of Silvermoon, her father Ziakus did not believe her at first, but allowed her to remain within the Manor for a short time. After Sarenal further explained her transformation, her father finally believed her. (She did however leave out the fact of dabbling in Dark Magics)

The reunion was short lived, as after a while the Scourge came bearing down on Quel'thalas, though corrupted by both the Old Gods and Dark Magic, she still fought tooth and nail to defend Quel'thalas from the Scourge and Arthas.

However the Scourge were too many in numbers, no spell or wepaon in Sarenal's arsenal seemed to stop them. Finally the Scourge entered the western section of Silvermoon, and she witnessed them slaughter most of her family and house members; driven by grief and further insanity she sought Arthas out, battling through scores of Undead, she finally came face to face with Arthas.

After a short bout, Sarenal was defeated, stepping back she was picked up by a gargoyle and dropped into the Elrendar River. She would later end up on the shores of Lordaeron.
