Shae

Shae Occidotheon-Morningstar is a Dhampir Piratess and Nomad from Alfheim. She was born and raised in Axel and currently resides in the Lunar City-State of Lirgal. She actively travels the lands of the Old World, Rathnir, in order to get in touch with new cultures as well as to discover the remains of ancient ones.

She currently serves as the main builder for the port city of Axel, to which she contributed a lot in terms of development. She is the successor to the title of Builder God, a honorary title which has previously been awarded to her father.

Childhood
Daughter to Shadeaux Grayshade, a human alfheimi gemcutter, soldier and politician, and to Yakira Occidotheon, a vampire originating from the lands around Lirgal, Shae was raised in a rather traditional and conservative household, together with her brother, Ash. She was thaught manners and etiquettes by her father, who, in addition, introduced her to the art of combat, as well as to the world of gemstones. She never met her mother, who seemingly disappeared after the birth for unknown reasons to date.

At the age of only 6 years, she already showed great promise in the art of sword fighting, adapting a defensive style, but still prefering to dual wield a set of emerald scimitars instead of the usual One-Sword One-Shield form.

Uldarashi Civil War
When she turned 8, the outbreak of the Uldarashi Civil War made both her father and her brother enlist in the loyalist army, despite her pleas to not get involved in the increasingly more violent conflict. They reasoned that they wanted to secure the future of the next generation of Havenites, and that it was the moral obligation of her father as a politician, to fullfill his duty for the homeland.

Several years into the dreadful war, without being able to see either family members, she was informed that her brother didn't make it out of the Battle of Terroja alive, and some time after, during the Hapatmitas-Chevkri campaign, her father should follow, succumbing to the blade of Stanford, after a final, heroic last stand as the only remaining survivor of his platoon, which got decimated by Auroran and Dread Fleet forces.
