	There are very few men that have kept Berkana interested. She was in the company of Cosgrave Temaraire for about two-and-a-half years, which ended in 5106. There was a very brief fling of a few weeks with Picler Ralduvian before his untimely disappearance in 5112. She engaged in some mild flirtations since that time, until she met [[Faendryl]] Aurach Moonshadew in 5114. Their two-year relationship ended in the spring of 5116, and she left his home in [[Ta'Illistim]] to return to the Landing, where she met [[Talinvor]], a [[Dhe'nar]]. After several weeks of trying to tempt him, she asked to become his shira'qa, and spent another two years by his side until he released her in Fashanos 5118.

Their two-year relationship ended tumultuously in the spring of 5116, and she left his home in [[Ta'Illistim]] to return to the familiarity of the Landing, where she met [[Talinvor]], a [[Dhe'nar]]. After several weeks of trying to tempt him, she asked to become his shira'qa, and spent another two years by his side until he released her in Fashanos 5118.

	In Koaratos of 5119, Berkana reacquainted socially with Blades Clanners, and they were often together for the next several months... until he wandered off again at the start of 5120.		In Koaratos of 5119, Berkana reacquainted socially with Blades Clanners, and they were often together for the next several months... until he wandered off again near the start of 5120.

	There ~~was~~ only one man who had captured her heart completely — Mithumbras Soulcraft. He had been a constant in her life since late 5097 until he left Elanthia in late 5117, having often wandered off from time to time, but always returning. Beyond that, casual encounters were exceedingly rare, as delight without some lasting affection was unrewarding and unsatisfying.		There had only been one man who had captured her heart completely -— Mithumbras Soulcraft. He had been a constant in her life since late 5097 until he left Elanthia in late 5117, having often wandered off from time to time, but always returning, and returning to her. Beyond that, casual encounters were exceedingly rare, as delight without some lasting care and affection was unrewarding and unsatisfying.

	Then... during the first half of Ivastaen 5121, [[Telagan_(prime)\|Telagan]] Vangauri, who had also returned from a long voyage, crossed paths with Berkana (who he'd met many years ago). They've been creating mayhem and mischief since, wherever they go.		Then... during the first half of Ivastaen 5121, [[Telagan_(prime)\|Telagan]] Vangauri, who had also returned from a long voyage, crossed paths with Berkana (who he'd met many years ago). They've been creating mayhem and mischief ever since, wherever they go.

	Few women can get past their envy and jealousy to become friends with Berkana, but those who do find they have a very loyal and trusted friend. Many may find her risqué wardrobe, cunning wit, brazen forwardness, and fierce attitude intimidating — though she'll cloak her demeanor in a veil of politeness while assessing weaknesses — much like a cat watching her prey.

	Born in Eorgaen 4623, Berkana escaped from indentured servitude with an Eorgina caravan, a band of gypsies that had kidnapped her when she was five-years-old. She took up residence in Wehnimer's Landing in 5096, and has been a member of [[House Brigatta]] since. Until recently, she had never considered marriage, and she had a scant handful of long-term relationships, including her two years as shira'qa (pet). She often shied away from centrist politics and shunned some of the zealots, like [[Chaston Griffin]], and other nefarious denizens, save for a moment in 5117 when she was a link to the mind of a girl, one of three Ithzir-touched children, the most infamous of whom was named [[Rodnay]]. The memory of that incident still lives within her, surfacing at times in restless dreams.

The memory of that incident still lives within her, surfacing at times in restless dreams.

	Berkana was high priestess of a cult called the Circle of the Grey Moon, loyal to [[Eorgina]], around 5100. During that tenure, she discovered the writings of High Priestess Moriane saVere, and inspired by them, created three rites she continues to perform, most notably, the annual Rite of Dedication. One day, after a particular egregious acolyte once again had disrupted a rite with demands to be elevated, Berkana gathered up her ceremonial items, handed them off to a promising initiate (Naessi) and inducted her as a high priestess, shot one last glare at the offending disruptor, and wandered off for a period of seclusion and worship. The acolyte had a major break with reality and was never seen again — something that likely highly pleased [[Eorgina]]. During an invasion of [[vathor]] in [[Ta'Illistim]], she watched dispassionately from the rooftop garden of the Moonglae Inn with Mithumbras, as the city burned while they both sipped wine, a small smile playing upon her lips, knowing that her Queen would delight in this turn of events.

	Berkana served as co-chairperson of House Brigatta from early 5012 until almost exactly 11 years later, when she passed the keys to her good friend and successor, [[Lylia]] Rashere. She still enjoys the comfort there, and within her retreat in the Villa Brigatta garden on Teras Isle.

	Luminary '''Berkana LeJardine-Faendryl,''' the Enigma and Scourge of Eorgina, is a dark elven sorceress and devout follower of [[Eorgina]]. She resides mainly at [[House Brigatta]] in [[Wehnimer's Landing]], where she served as Chair for over a decade. She also maintains a small tower in Ravenswood and a studio at Villa Brigatta on [[Teras Isle]]. She has a fondness for dark chocolate and bad men (and it seems most of them are rogues). During a two-year turn as shira'qa to [[Talinvor]], she learned how to master her psaltery, compose songs and prose, dance to delight the eyes, tantalize the senses, and perform with her aerial silks. Sometimes, you can catch her practicing tasseography at the tavern of the Black Iron Chalice, performing impromptu divination readings for citizens, or baking fresh apricot tarts in the kitchen with House Brigatta's cook — when not prowling around in the Sanctum.

	Superficially seemingly pleasant, Berkana does carry a quiet reputation for having a sharp tongue and being intolerant of fools. Despite her general indifference, she does sometimes travel to the Rift, Old Ta'Faendryl, and Sanctum of Scales to take pity on the dead and animate them. Black roses and the hue of nightshade are often two primary themes that identity much of her wardrobe, which she frequently changes. Favorite flowers are wisteria, nightshade, roses, and daturas. She likes to sip Brigatta's house bourbon, Elanthian Comfort, or their small batch fragrant pear liqueur.
