Sweet, Hopeful, Friendly and Intelligent. She's a girl who rarely isn't smiling and whose obsession with magic is only matched by her desire to help her allies n' friends (and maybe test some new magic on them/their enemies)
She talks at great length about the topic of magic, seemingly obsessed with it, to the point of worrying some of her friends. Though her positivity can border on annoying, she remains steadfast and once she has her mind set to something isn't afraid to grab the reigns to try and get what she wants.
A former student of the White Tower (in the Zau'ber Empire), she primarily studied Divination and had a penchant for Lithomancy; the ability to divine through stones and/or gemstones. And that she primarily used it for other people, since everyone wants to know about one thing or another, about what's going on in someone else's heart, about someone else's life or to even 'peek' behind the veil and perhaps glean something of their future.
Why is she so so obsessed with magic?
Why won't she talk about her past?
Why is it she's on a quest to find her father?

Appearance
Physical Description
Lithe frame and fair skin show her inclination towards more studios hobbies. She has little muscle tone and long legs with almost a dancer's body type, some might even call her "petite".
Body Features
Her ears are medium length and wiggle/move to help her express a mood she is currently feeling/trying to convey. She has very long (hip length) and thick champagne blonde hair, that is often worn long and ends in four thick braids, two of which often hangs over her shoulders and the other two behind said shoulders with long bangs that are often parted down the middle and worn loose which usually frames her face. Typically though, it is collected into a braid cinched bun whenever she wears her hood.
Facial Features
Soft features, small nose, large shiny green eyes with long lashes and small eyebrows with some freckles dotting her rosy cheeks.
Identifying Characteristics
She has a strange marking on the back of her neck that she often hides with her hair and/or clothing, this birthmark, for the few who have seen it resembles a sun or star of some kind.
Physical quirks
Always has a tendency to cover her face when embarrassed and seems to be right-handed.
Apparel & Accessories
She usually wears a red, gold-ornate hooded cloak, the cape of which is cut into a 'feather' style. A white, gold inlaid (around the hem and sleeves) billow sleeved blouse that, with the brown leather bustier, falls about and a little past her hips almost as if it were a skirt. A brown, multi-strapped leather belt with gold buckle wraps about a long red skirt that is cut in a way to not only fall between her legs, but allow her legs some freedom of movement. Under that she wears a pair of white tights and wears a pair of knee high (laced), medium heeled brown leather boots. She also wears a pair of forearm length, side-strapped brown gloves with small jewels along the clasps of those straps.
She wears about her body a strap belonging to her satchel, a brown with gold inlaid designs along it's exterior signifying someone of means, yet scuffed and somewhat worn in places to show it's over-usage.
For jewelry she wears a pair of white-gold ear-cuffs that have small rubies dangling from them, two rings; on either middle finger with a small gemstone on them and a citrine-jewel broach she often wears. The amount of gemstones on her nears the "ostentatious" level.
Specialized Equipment
She carries around a rather weird looking book that has seemingly been wrapped over and over again in a variety of pink, red and white ribbons and is often hung at the side of her hip, hanging off of her belt. She also carries around a small pouch of weirdly shaped stones/gemstones that she uses for divining.
Special abilities
Has been trained in classical arcane arts of wizardy with a aptitude in the school of Divination. She focuses on fate/luck manipulation, identification and of course some offensive as well as defensive spells such as Mage Armor and Firebolt.
Mentality
Personal history
Born into one of the premiere noble houses with a history of being court seers, she basically had her life set out for her before she even really got a chance to make up her mind for herself. The only thing that made her life bearable was the love of her parents and her faithful friend and house servant; Lanik.
She was enrolled at an early age to begin her tutelage of magic, where she was an apt student and took rather well to her new studious life. She even began to develop a innate talent for divination, much to her parent's delight. "Your father is so proud!" She would often hear, which got even her a little excited at times.
It was there, for the next ten years, studying magic and getting a top-notch education. Learning all she could, she soaked up the various magical topics like a sponge, always seemingly "thirsty" for more. Though all of that came to a stand still when her father went missing. He had seemingly just vanished, as if he were snatched from reality without anyone else noticing. What was worse, was there was a man, a colleague of her father's, who was seemingly trying to ingratiate himself into her family, especially with her mother. Much to her chagrin.
Then randomly, only three years after her fathers disappearance, this stranger, named Dar'rin, announced his engagement to her mother and then promptly moved into their home. Quickly she began to notice him taking over not only their home, but her father's research, his office and even his wife; Ros'aluen.
During a rather sleepless night, she wanders to her parents bedchambers, hearing strange noises and seeing strange lights emanating from their door. Taking a peak she found, to her horror, that Dar'rin was using magic, of the mental persuasion, to brainwash her mother!
She listened at the door, overhearing his monologue (why do they always monologue) about wanting to steal her father's research, to use her family's relic; an ancient Jotun tome, to allow him to not only peer INTO the future... but to control it as well! With this she ran to the only person she could now trust; Lanek. Discussing it with him, they devised a plan to get Dawn and the family's relic out of Zau'ber.
Lanek had been her "partner in crime" for a few years now, having always abhorred slavery and the injustice those who were considered "beneath" the high elves would often endure, she would often help relay information and when the need arose and even hid runaways on occasion.
After a year of planning with Lanek, they hired someone (Erdan and William) to sneak her and the relic (which had then been disguised with ribbons) out of the city after he setup a distraction. To leave Lanek behind and venture out into the world for the first real time in her life to try and find her father and figure out a way to stop Dar'rin.
That was two years ago, and she has since been on the run, hunting after any clues that might lead her to her father whilst trying not to draw the Empire's attention, lest she and the Relic fall into Dar'rin's clutches!
She had recently joined on a ship traveling along the sea to a new place, somewhere away from the Empire and hopefully bringing her one step closer to finding her father. And maybe, helping her to save her mother...

Mental Trauma

She feels ashamed of leaving not only Lanek behind, but her mother as well, who might as well be nothing but a puppet under Dar'rin's control.

Personality
Motivation
To find her father, use the knowledge she has acquired from her studies (and maybe the book) for the betterment of the world! Also, if she could possibly find out WHY her people's lifespans are shrinking, that'd be great too!
Self-Improvement. The goal of a life of study is the betterment of oneself. I wish to become the best wizard this world has seen!
Noble Obligation. It is my duty to protect and care for the people beneath me.
I have an ancient relic that must not fall into the wrong hands. It must never fall into my enemy's hands.
I idolize a historical magic user, and measure my accomplishments against theirs.
Magic is a gift, it must be treated that way!
