Appearance
Lyna's alternate form stands at about 167cm in height, and she is typically seen smiling. She has waist-length hair that is a pink to purple gradation in colour. Throughout her hair are short rounded shapes looking like fins of a sea creature that are yellow to blue in colour with light spots on each shape. In this form she also retains her long, peach/yellow tail as well as some fin-appendage shapes on the sides of her face. When heading out to the field, she typically wears a long white coat cuffed above her elbow and hangs below her knees. She wears a choker and has the guild-assigned armband belonging to the Arcane Sciences Division. Under her jacket is a singlet/short jumpsuit outfit that she wears over tights. She typically also wears a few belts with pouches attached to them around her waist, carrying various vials and papers to take notes on.
Lyna's dragon form is long and slender shape. All along her whole body has small leaf-like shapes that follow along her spine, ends of her wings, around her head and arms/legs that resemble some kind of leafy sea creature. Her body is peach/orange in colour, with the tips of her leafy-appendages going into a blue/purple gradation. She retains her fingerless gloves in this form. Her wings have very light spots towards the ends.
Personality
Prior to her fall from Lyrrh al Stahl, Lyna was a short-tempered, arrogant and had an Icarus complex. She had an easy to set off temper and would often vent her frustrations of being talked down by sharpening her combat abilities.
After living among the cities and with the people on the surface, Lyna's attitude shifted from hot-headed short-tempered to one of patience and care. Usually seen smiling, she's eager to understand both the world and people around her as some customs still feel foreign to her. Although she has a more mellowed-out persona in recent times, she's always more than willing to spar with her friends (for fun, or if she feels they would need a way to vent where words or physical touch would fail).
Biography
Contributions
- As a part of the memetic curse of Dragons, Lyna did not and could not use a second aspect. She didn't ever have the thought to before landing on the surface. Through the (unintentional) help of Freyja Lest, her (accidental) encouragement to learn fire as an aspect to control the snowscape Lyna had made prompted her to understand that 1) curses exist, 2) she has one (through draconic belief of not being able to learn a second aspect) and 3) she can break it.
- Now a trailblazer in understanding and breaking this specific curse, she often assists other afflicted fallen dragons who arrive in Eversun if requested.
- Accidentally made global warming exist under Lyrrh al Stahl when she fell. (placeholder)
Abilities
LN2
- Both her combat abilities and aspects in general are more focused on environmental disruption or harmony with it. With her ice and fire, she can freeze large areas around her in a liquid nitrogen-like state. Fire for her is less of a focus, however burns from such a cold temperature can still occur if she is physically touched in this state, or if contact is made with the area she has frozen.
- The intensity of both vary on two factors:
1 - If the area is large enough, then the potency of the ice is less effective on the ground and less focused. Conversely, 2 - If the area is small and focused, then the potency of the ice is stronger on both the ground and on Lyna herself.
Catalyst
- Using her fire with ice, she can ignite the -196 °C ice around her instantly into a gaseous state to make a foggy effect on the field to distract enemies in fights.
Avarice
- Her rapier (lovingly named Avarice, one of the very few things she can recall pre-fall) seems to be attuned to her own aether. The hand guard will only unfurl whenever she reaches for the handle of it, then coils around her knuckles and wrist when grasped. Lyna is certain there is a being within the rapier, though this is unconfirmed. (image to be added Eventually™️ i'm tired)
- When in use, Avarice slowly saps Lyna's aether making her lethargic over a long period of time, in return for being able to pin-point focus the aspect along the blade and coating itself in an liquid nitrogen stiletto shape (varying each time she does this). When channelling fire, the blade becomes searing and red-hot.
Other
- Can transform into a dragon at will, although happens to slip in and out of the form with less control when very drunk.
Relationships
Keldwyn Flannery
The Girl and the Dragon written by Hanny.
Once Lyna had drifted out of the fatigue-like state, she had wearily gazed up at Kel leaning over her. With a crooked grin and the words "my pretty flower" tumbling from her lips in a warm timbre, Lyna had realised the girl in her dreams was, in fact, real. After Kel had filled her in on the time Lyna had lost, the two left the non-guild affiliated medical facility together. They then lived on the streets where the two were not seen without one another even when joining the guild, where they remained steadfast friends and Lyna being able to receive treatment of her aether deficiency with the two always making time for one another.
Never seen spotted without a bubble of laughter or a smile between them, Lyna would often fill her seafaring friend in on missed banter between other guild members, and Kel regaling stories of her travels along with small gifts to the dragon she had acquired along her journey back home. When time permits, the two enjoy each other's peaceful company by open waters, or Lyna excitedly flying laps around Kel's ship as it emerges from over the watery horizon.
Champ
The two did not get along initially. At all. With Champ rising to the position of a mentor within the guild, they had initially bumped heads work-ethic wise. As Champ's attitude towards the guild is met with a level of seriousness, Lyna's is more free with her attention and willing to bother dote on those she's close with. The two would have been seen in spats often about trivial things, much to the annoyance of anyone within earshot.
After receiving many anonymous complaints, Freyja Lest had requested the guild to have the pair to be sent out on a quest together, with the express instructions from her to "Get along with one another (Or Else)." After the mission had been completed, the pair had stopped at a local bar to drink and pass the time. While leaving, the two had noticed a group of ruffians taking advantage of a lone, defenceless patron of the bar outside. Rumour has it that the shared experience of beating a bunch of punks to a pulp solidified a understanding and friendship between the two, as they are now often seen in each others company amicably or sparring against one another.
Nyx Roseblood
Ever since being picked up by Nyx one evening in the Gingko Tree, the two have been inseparable. Lyna adores seeing Nyx light up whenever she is in her dragon form, her façade slipping for a moment with a wide smile. Curiously, the same flicker of excitement can be seen for a moment whenever the two are in combat together and Lyna draws Avarice out into her left hand.
Eleanor Valentine
At first spotting the small Eleanor peeking at her from around a door frame, the two have always had a soft affection for one another. Lyna is in a constant state of reverent loving glee at the young one's boundless and ever flowing curiosity at every living thing in the world, and this spark had rubbed off onto her as well. It is unheard of to see Lyna and Eleanor around each other not grinning from ear to ear or touching each other softly in some familial way. When they both have a spot of free time, they share in their love of a good meal at the local taverns and talks of the cultures around them. While Lyna has the uncommon times of focusing hard on her work, Eleanor makes a concerted effort to dote on her and remind her to take breaks, of which Lyna indulges in with the younger one thoroughly.
Hanzekihel Oulieus
Hanzekihel had "suddenly appeared one day" within the Arcane Sciences Division (in Lyna's words, though she simply didn't notice his presence due to being out in the field for some time) with an office not too far from her own. Often terse and withdrawn to her, she finds this behaviour from him to be encouraging to try to understand him better. Reading his bouts of low energy, the Dragon kindly gives Hanzekihel days of rest from her between small bouts of playful ribbing.
Rin Kazashi
Lyna had heard of Rin in passing throughout the guild, but only had the pleasure of meeting her through a chance timing of both having medical check-ups. When they both aren't seeing treatments from Freyja, Lyna tends to seek Rin out on days when she has some restless energy to burn. Although the two can exchange blows and aspects longer than most, the post-fight care Rin allows her to give and seeing the other lighter on her feet days after is something she enjoys just as much.
Hyalt Keylen
A friendly face within the Wayfarers' Division, a constant source bubbly energy and stories from adventures. Through (very above methods) the two have struck a sort of deal in Lyna exploring the possibilities of arrows infused with arcane energy and Hyalt in return giving thorough feedback (in unpublished papers for Guild Legal Reasons). Outside of their duties, the two enjoy each other's company greatly over drinks and warm chatter.
Odin Finch
The first Featherfolk Lyna had the pleasure getting to personally know and befriend. They had initially met one night when Lyna had spotted her alone and slotted her right next to her new friend. Being a dragon, Lyna is always happy to have a drinking buddy who can relax and hold their own. While she does adore the sparring session with her formidable partner, she seems to more enjoy having Odin throw her weight around with a sharp and carefree smile.

Trivia
- Left handed.
- Cannot swim.
- Prefers the outdoors.
- While she technically does have a family, she cannot remember them due to her fall from Lyrrh al Stahl to the surface which caused permanent damage to her memory.
- Had a curse that made it unable to learn a second aspect, although in present time it is now broken.
- Owns her mistakes as much as her victories.
- Lyna claims there's an entity within her rapier, Avarice, but no one believes her. There totally is, though. Why wouldn't there be? Like, why else would she talk to it sometimes, then? That would be just silly.
