Salia - Mountain Sprite - Bodyguard

One of Arthyon's two bodyguards.
Salia, was a beautiful woman only two feet in height, hovering about shoulder height behind her charge with the aid of four exquisitely fine wings blurring almost invisible, wings which could easily have belonged to some large dragonfly whose translucent nature made them hard to see when she had them in motion. She was a mountain sprite. Like most sprites, she was bare legged and bare armed, skimpily clad in gossamer strands of silk, constantly threatening to reveals the full charms of her femininity, but never quite doing so. So alluring and entrancing was Salia that she had more than once foiled an ambush against Arthyon by simply appearing and stunning the attackers for a few critical moments with her stunning beauty. Whereas Mashrac used his considerable psychic skills to shield them from others, Salia provided an almost identical magical shielding. As Salia possessed no mental talents, not being of one of the few races born with such gifts, she was still an ally of the Sharlashtri order and employed her considerable magical talents, both inborn and learned to their cause. Arthyon trusted her as much as he trusted any of his brethren, more so than most.
