The Seven Sisters
Beautiful, powerful, mysterious, and deadly—the silver-haired Seven Sisters are legendary throughout Mondum.
One rules the city of bards, the City of Sing. Another is Elminster's beloved and the infamous Witch-Queen of Nilfgaard. The third is the Lady Mage of Anthor, peer and consort of Khelben "Blackstaff" Arunsun, and the fourth is a Harper and one of the famous knights of the Order of the Gauntlet. The fifth is a leader of the Harpers and a legendary bard in her own right, and the sixth is a dead—perhaps undead—witch. And the seventh? She's the one who wild tales are whispered about all across Terra Caelum around many a fireside late at night.
But who are they, really? Their very names conjure up romance, allure, and power—Storm Silverhand, the Simbul, High Lady Alustriel. Sages say they are among the Chosen of Mystra, archmages who wield magic few can dare stand against. Yet these seven do not seek to rule the world, and they often stay quiet and hidden for generations.
That hints at another thing. These seven seem immortal, never ageing as the long years pass. Just who are these Seven Sisters, and what are their secrets?
INTRODUCTION TO ARROW DIAMOND'S RESEARCH PAPER; "SEVEN SISTERS OF SILVER FLAMES"
Structure
The Seven Sisters are seven immortal women, all Chosen of Mystra and daughters of the goddess Mystra. They are all spellcasters born to the ranger Dornal Silverhand and his wife Elué Silverhand, whom Mystra possessed to give birth to the children.
Anastra Syluné Silverhand (7496-8008)
Anastra, more commonly known as "Syluné", the kindly Witch of the Shadowed Vale was murdered by Orion but returned to the Prime as a weave ghost in the Shadowed Vale, watching over new Barovia.Alustriel Silverhand (7501-Present)
Alustriel, the regal but unashamed Lady of the City of Sing.Dove Falconhand (7712-7989)
Dove Falconhand, whose magic is second to her skill at arms, for she is a ranger and a renowned Knight of the Order of the Gauntlet married to another Knight, Florin Falconhand.Storm Silverhand (7714-Present)
Storm Silverhand, a famous and much-loved Harper, sorceress, and Bard of the Free Peach, who, despite sometimes appearing flighty, has taken it upon herself to protect and care for the people of her homeland to the best of her abilities.Laeral Silverhand (7721-Present)
Laeral Silverhand is the Lady Mage of Anthor and wife of Khelben Arunsun. She is a prominent member of the Harpers with her husband.Simbul (7791-Present)
Simbul is the witch-queen of Nilfgaard. She took the central citadel from the slaves who rose against the barbarian overlords, and now has installed a matriarchal society in the once oppressed nation.Qilué Veladorn (7801-7950)
The youngest daughter, Qilué was not widely known like her sisters—when she was whispered of she was called "The Dark Sister"—and that was probably a good thing for she was a drow, but also a fair and mighty priestess of both Mystra and of Lolth. She died in 7950 but returned as a weaveghost.
