Tali

Name
Talithe (Tali) Fairmoon (Kaldorei pronounciation) / Fair'Noon (Sindorei pronounciation)

Physical Traits
Tali most closely resembles a dark-haired High Elf. She has silver-blue eyes, which turn golden when she is casting a beneficial or nature spell. Tali has a plain face, inheriting none of the facial markings of her ancestors, and has pale skin. She wears her long dark-purple hair tied back, entangled with twigs, leaves, and wildflowers.

An ambiguous figure, she can be mistaken for a short, shy night elf, or a tall clumsy blood elf, and often suffers prejudice from every race in Azeroth.

Tali is light on her feet and always seems uneasy. Her long elegant ears, her most refined feature, tend to flutter when she is anxious. Her bare feet are usually dusty. She likes to wriggle her toes into the grass when she is enjoying a conversation.

Race and Class

 * Druid.
 * True Neutral.
 * Elf.

Committed to true balance and neutrality, Tali sees herself as neither night elf nor blood elf. Born in the highborne caste of night elves, she moves from supporting Alliance to Horde depending on the current balance, refusing to support either side exclusively. She calls herself simply 'Elf'.

Family

 * Father- Drowned in the Sundering.. May possibly now be a Naga.
 * Mother- Sentinel Fairmoon, after whom she is named. Works Sentinel shifts in Auberdine and Sylvanaar.
 * Sister- Andreniel Nightsong

Background
Tali was born to the highborne caste of night elves, before the Great Sundering, in a city called Suramar. A child during the war with the Burning Legion, her family at first sided with Queen Azshara, then fled the palace.

It was shortly after the war that Tali showed her unnerving connection with nature. At this time, only males became Druids, and women became Sentinels, except for those with special talents. She was allowed to train as a druid by her dismayed but loving mother who had wished for her to become a highborne courtier, or a high ranking Sentinel officer. Tali parted ways with all the other high elves when Dath'Remar Sunstrider called the night elves cowards and called an arcane storm on Ashenvale.

Tali entered the Emerald Dream with the other young druids and slept there for countless ages. Like the other druids, she woke from her slumber to fight at the battle of Mount Hyjal.

Immediately afterwards, distraught and shaken, she rejected the formality of the night elf civilization. She fled to the forest of northern Kalimdor, disappeared for a few years, and was believed to be dead by her sad mother Fairmoon. She spent her time shunning humanoid companionship, prefering to sleep curled in the frostsaber dens, tucked around a tree branch, or amongst the wild animals. She spent the majority of her time feral, in the form of a silent black panther. Her long years of sleep and of solitude, lacking social interaction, now cause her to appear very shy, clumsy or rude.

Family Background
Tali was born into the Highborne caste of night elves before the time of the sundering.

Personal Notes

 * Tali has an utterly charming combination of naivity in experience, and wisdom in theory. She can be disarmingly down to earth, especially about sexual matters, with often leaves her friends both speechless and charmed.
 * Tali does not like being outside in daylight, as the sun hurts her eyes.
 * Tali does not like strangers.
 * When meeting Tali, you have a 50/50 chance of being asked to mate, or having your eyes scratched out.
 * Tali meditates often, both to combat her addiction to magic, and to re-connect with the earth.
 * Tali loves moonwells, being near one allows her a respite from her daily meditations.

Inspiration
((My own experience of modern meso-pagan druidry.

Flute/Aphrael in the Elenium books. However much the adults try, this girl child always loses her shoes, and she is later revealed to be one of the younger gods. "Aphrael is one of the Younger Gods of Styricum, and is known as the Child-Goddess, as her preferred form is that of a six-year old girl with grass-stained feet, known to the knights as Flute."

"Precious" Depeche Mode: "Precious and fragile things, Need special handling. My God what have we done to you?"

In game, I play Tali as BOTH a night elf and as a blood elf.
