Ilynara
Everqueen (a.k.a. the Kind)
Ilynara, known as Ilynara the Kind was one of the most beloved and renowned to sit the throne of Alithanar. Ilynara was an uncommon personality, and was quite different than her predecessors. She sought to explore the world and experience its adventure, rather than sit on a throne and perform holy rituals for her people every day, and birth her husband's children. Ilynara was beloved by her people for "acting as a commoner herself" (as described by a rival Prince who sought her hand). She gave as much as she could to ensure all Elves were content. Ilynara was the voice of the "Human Kingdoms" and sought to come to their aid when the horrors of the Whispered One and the Darkheart returned. Ilynara went so far as to leave her kingdom in exile after her husband's mysterious disappearance in order to take her chance to see the world and to help the mortal races. Ilynara returned to her homeland to halt the vicious civil war that gripped it for years. The war was ended prematurely when Imrys, the Darkheart invaded with his vast undead hordes, almost wiping the Silver Empire from the planet. Imrys sacked the capital city, and took the Silver Tower, seeking to destroy its hold over the Weave of Magic, draining the force of magic itself. The Everqueen's life force is dependent on the strength of her people, and used the very last of her power to heal the Glade Guardians, before fading from the world forever. Ilynara's daughter, Ammara now sits the throne of the Everqueen, and seeks to be as noble and kind as her mother.
Ilynara became a beacon of hope and love to her people, and the love the Alithanaran people held for her persisted for hundreds of years well into the Age of Heroes and even in the Age of the Tyrant. This love and adoration turned to even speaking to her in prayers. The Alithanaran people, in their times of pain from the Wars of Unification sought a beacon of hope, through this prayer, Ilynara manifested once more in Korrisian space, this time as a being who exists beyond mortal comprehension and mortality itself, Ilynara returned as a god.

Personal history
Born to her mother, the former Everqueen, and Phoenix King Dalus'Adar, the Blazing Shield, she was immediately placed in the care and training of the noble court of her mother. Groomed from the start to become Everqueen, Ilynara was always criticized, and often punished by her tutors for her adventurous heart. Ilynara was trained in all manner of courtly behavior and procedure, she is also a gifted and powerful sorcerer who preferred to study the ancient texts of the Elven Hero Wizards, such as Teclis or Caledor. Ilynara's adventrous heart was crushed when an argument erupted between her and her mother, that she wished to journey out of Alithanar and see the world, she didn't wish to serve as Everqueen and spend her days raising the next Everqueen. From her mother's untimely demise, she re-dedicated herself to becoming the Everqueen her mother always saw her as, but secretly still wished for one day to have the chance to escape and live as an adventurer, or join her heroes in the annals of history.
Ilynara's dreams would come true in a dark time. Her husband, the Phoenix King Kelias was presumed dead by the Phoenix Court, and the nobles of Alithanar demanded a new Phoenix King be crowned. The debate was endless, and no one would agree on a King, and so the Elven Princes turned from diplomacy, to war. The Prince of Cas Thalore, long suspected and filled with conspiracy, attempted to kidnap the Everqueen and force her to become his wife, and attempted for forcefully impregnate her. The Prince deeply underestimated the magical prowess of Ilynara, as she burned (and scarred) half of his face, and sent him soaring off of her tower in Alvendar. When Cas Thalorian soldiers began attacking Alvendarian citizens and guards in the street, Ilynara's closest advisors pushed the young Everqueen to escape and seek help in the Human World. Ilynara found a small fishing vessel still loyal to her, and set sail.
Like many Everqueens before her, Ilynara is the definition of beauty and grace. While most Everqueens preferred to be dressed in the most radiant of gowns, Ilynara preferred clothing and armor closer to the Princes or even the Phoenix Guard. In times of war, Ilynara was often one of the first in battle-garb ready to lead Alvendarian soldiers to battle. Most Everqueens preferred their hair to be styled up and in the most courtly and respectable fashion, Ilynara preferred to let her hair down, or in a loose ponytail, which often received groans and secret judgment of her courtiers, but the young Everqueen cared not.
