Age: 21

Personality:

Ellistree is fierce, playful, independent, confident, flirtatious and very much care free. Nature is her calling and she does as she pleases. Concepts such as personal space, privacy, modesty, nudity, intimacy don't work the same way for her as 'normal' society would.

She loves to tease and if there's something or someone interesting, she'll try her best to get to know them as best she can, including but not limited to being all up in their space, be it as her humanoid form, or her feline form. She'd use her bear form as well if the object, or person in question is large enough to handle it.

Ellistree will go to great lengths to achieve a task that has been given to her, or that she's imposed on herself. Hardly one to give up, you'll have a hard time dissuading this female unless you truly show that what she's after, or what she's doing is wrong int he more natural sense.

All in all, Ellistree is a predator. Her instincts come first and she loves to act on them. If she senses fear, she'll play with the target, if she senses valor, she'll flirt, and tease, if she senses interest, or attraction, she'll play on it so that she can see if the person is worthy of a prime alpha female such as her.

Lover of all that is free and natural in the world, Ellistree is as comfortable in her naked body as anyone would be as a child. She can often be seen bathing in natural water sources, or playing around the forests in nothing but her nature given drapes. However, she's often seen in one of her feral forms more often, mostly in her feline form which she prefers over the others.

Ellistree is, for as aggressive and feral as she can be at times, very comforting and motherly. She is often seen taking over and protecting groups that are innocent or can't fend for themselves. This is especially true in times of war or strife.

In intimacy, Ellistree is aggressive, but she prefers a mate, or lover who can contest her nature. Someone who can take control and try and succeed at taming the wild beast that she is. She doesn't mind someone docile, but she'll want them to challenge her, not wanting to dominate them at all times and trying to teach them to be more assertive and confident in themselves.

Many of Ellistree's worries, even if she'll tell you with a straight face that she has none, lie within insecurity about her heritage. That's not to say she's not proud of who, or what she is, she's very much secure in that regard. But the fact that she's a half breed is already very taxing when she has to deal with the 'civilized' world.

Not often does she let it get to her, but it's very hard for her to keep calm or passive in the face of discrimination, accusation, or people judging her. She would rather hurry out of the area and avoid confrontation seeing as she can be quick to anger.

That being of of the flaws of being half of two very fierce races is her lack of self-restraint. If somehow you managed to push the wrong buttons, the girl has never been able to hold back and this has caused her to harm people she has cared about in the past. Unbeknownst to many, this was one of the factors of her retirement. An incident with a very close friend and lover ended fatally before she could come back to her senses, and ever since then she has beckoned a more relaxed life... Life in Azeroth however doesn't allow for such luxuries.

Unlike some of her peers, Ellistree is fearless in the heart of battle. It's off the battlefields where she feels the most vulnerable. It's really easy to push your feelings aside if you are facing the enemy, it's a much different story when it's just a civilian, let alone a civilian for the faction you are currently working for. Or worked for in this case.

Even so, she does her best to fit in, be the heart of the party, joke, play around and just have fun when she has to venture into a city. And for the most part, she doesn't have to face the things she hates, or fears. Mostly seen as an exotic beauty, at times there's not much other than lecherous cat calls or interested suitors which she politely either flirts with, assesses, or playfully dismisses saying that she's too much for them to handle.

However... there's many times where her heritage is brought into question, many insulting words are tossed at her and her kin and in most locations this occurs she has to grin and bear it, sometimes simply leaving the city without finishing her errands and shedding tears bitterly. Sometimes she wonders why she bothers with such a planet, believing that maybe she should let nature take its course and see if it'll cleanse this world of this filth.

And yet, it's those that do care about her, along with those who are kind to her regardless of who or what she is that she fights for. Often times she'll just retire to nature and prowl around for days in one of her animal forms, feeling that it's much more forgiving than the harsh environment of the mortal races.


Backstory:

Ellistree was born of Sharres Moonshadow, one of the Moonshadow Twins from Dolanar, and Kagejin Oliviera, one of the children under Grandmaster Marcus' care. Their meeting had been chanced, young Kagejin out on a recon mission and finding himself unable to dispatch of the twins.

A few encounters later, the three became close friends. Time leading into a more personal and intimate relationship between the three but Kagejin eventually settling with the younger of the twins.

Ellistree was fierce, confident and independent since a young age. Being one of the few in the group of younglings to take charge and protect the rest as well as being one of the ones always getting them into dangerous situations due to her adventurous ways.

Her carefree, nature loving demeanor developed even more when it was discovered that she was very talented in the druidic arts, more specialized in the feral aspects of nature. She quickly became adept and soon began to take part in many of the wars that plagued Azeroth.

Even with her stance on not taking sides, Ellistree became well known throughout the alliance as one of the most competent retrieval specialists, as well as a fierce combatant in the fields. Her dangerous missions and accomplishments allowed her to rise up the ranks of the Alliance military and become a Grand Marshal at a young age.

Her level head and complete unbiased opinions made her one of the more rational officers when it came to the war on Outlands, Northrend and the most recent Cataclysm as both sides needed to work together regardless of their rivalries. She then managed to acquire many victories throughout her campaign as an officer, as well as crushing defeats... But that never tied her down as she always got back up fiercer and more confident than ever.

After the war on the Cataclysm, Ellistree had finally decided that she'd retire for the time being. She was looking to raise a family of her own, hoping that this little sliver of peace would last for much longer than usual.

That however turned into another mission with the discovery of a new continent and... new strife. Ellistree took it upon herself to lead new groups from a more mentor mentality than as a part of either of the military heading towards new lands. She'd make sure she did her best to keep people from both sides from tearing at each other. They did not need more war in Azeroth, the world itself had suffered greatly recently and needed time to heal. She needed time to heal.

In her home and the surrounding areas, Ellistree never had to face or feel discriminated. In fact, the location was quite welcoming and caring, allowing the younglings to play and become friends, simply be themselves. Every now and then they'd scold the adventurous girl for being too aggressive, or reckless, but most understood that this was part of her nature considering her parents.

This however changed once she got to the cities and started a more formal education. Her parents decided that they'd let her choose where she'd want to study and explained both factions thoroughly. They knew she was still young, but she had been keen, wise and smart since a young age and believed she had the right to choose.

Choosing to work and grow up in the Alliance cities that her mother spoke of, Ellistree quickly found herself doubting her decision. It was in the middle of Stormwind, during one of her little escapades that she first came crashing into the reality of her situation.

Many names were spewed in her direction the night that she was cornered by a group of inebriated soldiers, out of the tavern and on their way homes. These were wary, tired soldiers, in the midst of the current conflict and they had their reasons to hate not one one of her races, but both, even with an older kaldorei in the very midst. They had just lost a battle near the Warsong Gulch because their night elven allies didn't arrive in time... much to Ellistree's misfortune.

That night she didn't return home, having been the victim of severe abuse of the likes she had never experienced before. What hurt the most however was the fact that they simply did this because of her heritage, not because of something she did.

This was so ingrained into her memory since then, that she had vowed to make the world change their views on these things. Not only the love and affection that could be had between the races, but the product, such as herself, as well. It would be a long and arduous road, but it was one that she would not give up on.

It was not easy as she grew up, especially with so many obstacles in her way, including, but not limited to the different, unjust treatment she received in most places. But this only made the girl try harder, train, and become stronger, learning both in mind and body.

Her aggressive nature only made things worse, wanting very much to harm those who wronged not only her, but those like her but not wanting to prove them right. Not wanting to be that "feral half breed scum" or that "wild rape baby". She wanted to be respected and prove that she was not only worthy of her place in this world, but that she'd go above and beyond those scumbags that treated others so differently.

The war gave her such an opportunity. In times of peace, people take their time. They do tests, they prove themselves in missions, they spend years in the military rising up the ranks through different menial or standardized missions and tasks.

This however, wasn't the case during the wars that plagued the world. It had been so horrid as of late, that they were losing more troops than the ones they recruited voluntarily. No one wanted to face these horrors and who could blame them? They were always fighting a three-sided war and the casualties were always tremendous.

This is where she came in. A willing troop, fresh out of her full training as a druid and eager to prove herself to the world and the would be doubters. This would be another obstacle-ridden path for Ellistree as the mistreatment faced in the Alliance military was worse than anything she had faced out in the cities. With people so racist that they even hated their allies. It was no wonder that the war was going to hell, and there was no sight of a victory in any direction.

Many times was she abused by her 'comrades' and many times was she dismissed for 'sullying the name' of her peers by the Commanders in charge, and still she stayed strong. She knew that if she gave up now, it would have all been for naught and they would have won. This gave her the strength to not only continue, but to surpass them as well.

Ellistree was the epitome of going above and beyond, taking all the missions people didn't want to take due to risk factors, and participating in all the battlefields that she could be sent to. No matter the dangers, she'd be the first to sign up for them and this is what started grabbing the attention of the more noble Officers, the ones that weren't blind by societal norm and were drive more by duty, honor and sacrifice.

When not in a battlefield, Ellistree also took part in many of the war games that started surfacing in the midst of all the conflict, gaining even more reputation through those. She started being known as the Moonshadow Lightning or the Feral Retriever due to her excelling at recovering items at a quick pace from dangerous locations.

Soon enough Ellistree found herself in the middle of the Hall of Champions, not receiving a medal this time, but a promotion to that of an esteemed officer of the Alliance. Of course not many were too happy about this, but "in times of need people need an example, a hero, someone who comes from hardship and still selflessly sacrifices themselves for the people." as was said by one of the Paladin Officers. Those words she will never forget and to this day are part of her every day life, especially in the fields.
