Quick Facts
- Currently 16 years of age.
- Fiora was promised to Civyl Tor Dyias when she was only 3 months old and has lived at the Sanctuary under The Wisdom's tutelage for her whole life.
- The wind is her element and she communicates with it both listening to what it can tell her about her surroundings and asking it to act on her behalf in offensive attacks.
- Fiora was chosen by the wind to be its vessel, The Knowledge. As such her spirit may walk with the wind away from her body, though not always where she wants it to go.
Physical Appearance
Fiora's flowing, white, sleeveless gown of her Coming of Age ceremony was ruined when she aided Nivia in saving Alex's life. The old woman burned the blood soaked cloth without her permission. She is currently wearing a deep blue dress with sheer sleeves as seen in the photo. It belonged to Avery, deceased sister of Chink and wife of Borris. Fiora has never worn shoes and seems to float above the ground because the air cushions her walk. She has long brown hair that has never been cut.
Origin
Fiora was born in Kavaccet and grew up at the Sanctuary. On her 65th season of life, about a week ago, she was considered an adult by their culture and released to her family and her promise.
Mentality
Fiora has a pretty strong mental capacity. Bright and intelligent, she was trained by the best that Kavaccet had to offer. She has suffered some emotional trauma, though, since coming of age. She thought she would be wed to her love, Civyl, but the day she came home, he had forgotten everything about her. Still she was his promise and had to follow him wherever he went. That meant a trek across forests and into the Mountains, which has not been the easiest. She had to leave behind everything she knew and struggles to teach Civyl what he has forgotten.
In addition, her spirit has been travelling the lands forcing her to see some of the terrible things that go on in it. The deaths in a burning village were especially horrific. An unknown man also tried to kill her during her maiden flight.
When she first encountered Alex and the other Birchwood Brothers, they practically kidnapped her and - she thought - killed Civyl. After mourning his supposed death, she turned on Alex in revenge only to find Civyl was still alive. She helped to save Alex's life from the stab wound she inflicted and has started to see all of the Birchwoods in a better light. Her faith in The Wisdom has been shaken by them, though.
Residence
Fiora used to live at the Sanctuary in Kavaccet and was going to move in to Civyl's home when she came of age, but moving in has been postponed as they travel to unknown lands instead.
Possessions
Fiora had to leave rather quickly and did not have time to pack much. She pretty much has the clothes on her back, a bedroll, and travelling provisions. Her mother did pack something special in the bottom of her bag but she has not found it yet.
Relationship with Others
Fiora is generally pleasant to get along with but she does have a temper when annoyed. This aspect of her personality has reared up in her relationships with other characters.
Civyl Tor Dyias
Fiora has known Civyl her whole life. While The Wisdom kept her busy and safe at the Sanctuary, she was allowed much free time to spend with her promise. He read her bedtime stories, played games with her, made art projects with her, helped her with homework, and sparred against her. She loves him deeply and he loves her... Except he doesn't remember her.
Since The Sight took him, Fiora's relationship with Civyl has been awkward. He considered her a burden to his real quest but he could not leave her behind. As she continued to love him his suppressed feelings for her started to resurface, especially after she had been kidnapped by the Birchwoods. Their relationship now is one of strong commitment.
Alex
Fiora was first introduced to Alex when he and three of his friends decided to attack Civyl thinking that he was holding her captive. In the confrontation, Alex trips Civyl into a fire that seems to consume him. Hatred for Alex soon followed and she attempted to get vengeance on him, coming close to killing him, just before she found out Civyl had survived the fire. Nivia convinced her to help save his life and has begun to see him in a better light, realizing he was trying to help her.
