[QUOTE="doghead, post: 7893826, member: 8243"] [B]Sariel and the Iolanthe[/B] There wasn't really much beyond what was in the post. I was just doodling up some ideas because there was nothing on TV and I didn't feel like studying. So maybe more procrastination than boredom. OK, here we go. I will try and work through my thinking. [I]Sariel's original Bond read: I am the last of my tribe, and it is up to me to ensure their names enter legend. I didn't want to go down this path. I feel like a Bond should be with something that actually exists. I wanted her to have a tribe. So I just picked a name for it. I envisioned it as a fairly ordinary wood elf tribe. They live in the woods/forests. The woods and forests support them, and in return they protect their home. Hence the guardians line. I envisioned the tribe living somewhere reasonably remote. Probably a smaller tribe. Somewhere where forests rub shoulders with mountains. Somewhere on the map provided? Or from somewhere beyond? I don't think that there are many others of her tribe around. They stay in their forests, mostly. That said, some/most do leave the forest to travel and explore at some point. They watch and learn. And when they return they tell the others what they have seen and learnt about the world beyond their forest. I didn't envision them as agents tasked with things and required to report to a handler. That said, being tasked may happen. Sariel's stalking of the dragon and the three questions she asked could have been a task. Sariel's faction was Emerald Enclave. I wanted to tie that into her reality a little bit. I figured that some others in her tribe belonged to a faction, and most likely it would be the Emerald Enclave. Give that, and a similarity of world view between the faction and the wood elves, I figured that they would/could be allies of sort. [/I] Hope that that helps. Happy to discuss, change or amend any of the above as required to fit into the setting. thotd [/QUOTE]
