Ílima's father, the King of Elves, had an older son Malinan who was born with green eyes and many years later, Ílima's mother, the Queen, died giving birth to her, starting the permanent burden of guilt Ílima struggles under. To her father's delight, she was a beautiful girl born with violet eyes making it her destiny to ascend to the throne when her father died. Unfortunately, as the years passed, Ílima and her father argued more and more over the traditions of the land. She wanted to change them because she felt they were unjust and this was not popular with him or the majority of the people. Her brother protected her for the most part but when she was 189, she did something even he could not protect her from. She brought a human to the Elvish lands. Although her Father was loathe to do it (As he still loved her dearly despite their differences and arguments.), he had no choice and so banished her from the kingdom, never to return until the day he died and she was to take the throne. Until that time, however, she was considered less than a peasant in the eyes of her people and thrown out of the land. Now, she is forced to travel in the lands of other races and try to live until the day she has to return home, knowing that she'll never see her father again because of it. Personality: Ílima is very shy and gets embarrassed all too easily. She is obsessed with modesty and will get extremely embarrassed and upset if her or people around her are not dressed modestly -- To the point of tears if she can't leave or fix the problem. She is very well mannered and always tries her best to polite even when others are being rude. It is very hard to make her angry although hurting people she cares for is the easiest way although not to be recommended because she is extremely fearsome when angered. Afterwards she tends to spend a long time crying as the adrenaline wears off and she feel guilty for losing control. Other elves considered her the most beautiful Elf of her generation but felt it was marred by her perceived rebellious nature -- where in fact it is just her insistence on justice and equality rather than actual rebelliousness. Her banishment weighs heavily on her mind and causes her to be too ready to accept punishments whether just or not -- all that matters is she probably deserves it, in her eyes. She avoids questions about her past unless someone can successfully guilt her into telling them by which point she will usually end up full of shame and take a long time to recover. She misses her family dearly and wishes she could see them again, especially her brother who she loves dearly. A combination of her shyness and her perceived rebellion unfortunately meant she had no friends at home which has made her even more shy and also a little withdrawn. When she starts getting close to someone she tends to try her best to convince that person she is a bad person and that they shouldn't make friends with her. If they manage to get her past that stage then usually she becomes very good friends with them. Unbeknownst to even Ílima, she is in fact bi-sexual although she is convinced she is heterosexual. It usually takes another girl to make the first move before she realises this fact. Getting into a romantic relationship tends to cheer her up immensely and is also one of the few ways guaranteed to make her reveal her past. Being an innocent even for a virgin and never been kissed, she's very inexperienced in the ways of love and a lot of the time won't realise someone has feelings for her or vice-versa. Powers: Ílima has the power to draw in and harness the energy present in all life and the very air itself. It is a very tiring discipline but it allows her to do almost anything she can put her mind too, although things she has done often are easier for her to do. The most common things she does with it are to clean things, heal things, throw lightning bolts, form shields and teleport although in theory she could do absolutely anything so long as she has the energy to do so. Prolonged use of her power makes her extremely tired and usually forces her to eat large amounts of food to maintain the physical energy needed to use her magic and sleep to replenish her mental energy.
