Mental characteristics
Personal history
Always a bit more of the quiet type growing up, Na'lyn mostly kept to herself and her immediate family, and put most of her focus into her study. She would spend her free time mostly training, never one much for socializing. She had been born male, and was nervous to let anyone know who she truly was, and it severely affected her confidence in speaking to those outside of her family. However, soon after becoming an adult, she came out to her parents who both accepted her with love.
After her transitioning, Na'lyn found herself trying to meet more people, a new feeling of confidence behind her. She started dating a man named Ruvyn, and the two became engaged after about a year. However, a few weeks before they were to marry, Ruvyn learned of Na'lyn's transition. Not the accepting type, he grew angry and became extremely violent with Na'lyn, only for Khar-Lan to step in and protect his daughter through force. He threw the elf out from the family home, making it clear for him to never return, while Na'lyn quickly found herself shutting down again and doubting herself.
Despite her parent's attempts at helping her, Na'lyn found herself isolated and focused solely on training, refusing to speak to anyone outside of family again. When Gaelyran was born in 4907, she shifted her focus into helping to care for her little brother, wanting to be the best role model and protector she could for him, putting him before herself. Their bond only grew as the two aged, despite her quiet nature, and the two relied heavily on each other once their mother, Thessalia, passed away.
Na'Lyn, once she moved out of her grieving period, took up adventuring. She usually did so on her own, but would treasure times when Gaelyran would join her. However, on one of her solo trips, she wound up fighting with and losing to an angel of Ditris- only learning she was being used as a sacrifice for power once Gaelyran found and woke her over 100 years later. Since returning to the family, she has remained quieter than ever, but still treasuring what moments she gets with her brother and her father. While amazed that she once again has her grandmother, she lives with guilt that she hadn't been around for Ar-Lyn's final days, having had a close connection with her grandfather as Gaelyran did.
She continued to watch the goings-on of the family from the side, until she suddenly took an interest in the Arcanaloth, Ah'gos, residing on the property. She eventually courted him, and has slowly opened up more since meeting him, though once again finds herself afraid she could lose everything.
