| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Appearance
You see Lightweaver Opalina Jalcon the Town Councillor of Icemule Trace.
She appears to be a Half-Elf.
She is quite short for one of elven heritage and has a curvy-figured shape. She appears to be in the meridian of life. She has dark feather-lashed arctic blue eyes and freckled skin. She has winter rose-dotted, curly deep auburn hair delicately rolled into an off-center chignon that leaves a few feathery tendrils to trail in front of her ears and down the nape of her neck. She has an evenly proportioned, plain face, a freckled nose and slightly pointed ears. Tiny flecks of sea blue have formed within her pupils. She has a fake silver-edged tooth barely visible in her mouth.
She has a petite faceted ruby arrow in the upper ridge of her right ear, a teacup-cradled clockwork mouse tattoo on her leg, a ring of red roses tattoo on her waist, a niveous-inked fall of tiny snowflakes on her ear, a tiny flawless diamond stud in her right nostril, and a set of silver rings with tiny dangling crystalline snowflakes in the upper ridge of her left ear.
She is in good shape.
- Attire
Perched upon her shoulder is a tiny summer teadragon, the diminutive lizard stretching its vestigial wings as it yips in contentment. She is wearing a multi-chained eonake ferroniere dangling a ten-pointed gardenia white diamond, an azure phoenix tail feather, an ebony symbol of Ronan, a silvery white bearskin coat lined with ermine, a twisted vaalin kilt pin, a wide brass spiral etched with rolling waves, a crystal-eyed silver dolphin symbol encrusted in blue coral, a flecked pearl white lizard, a blue feather-shaped charm, an oblong byssine satchel stitched with silver-scaled dragons slung over her shoulder, a crimson eahnor-plated pack with a tiny metal lever, a sleeveless wrap-around plumille houppelande with pleated elesine-edged split skirts, a lambskin-lined balenite armband forged into a series of breaking waves, a wiregrass bracelet, a silver-linked bracelet of crystal-cut snowflakes, a thick ebonwood armband, a silver-framed bracelet inset with skyglass panels, some sleek selshis skin gloves with kelyn-reinforced knuckles, a filigreed eonake wedding band with a nightscape motif, a snow white imflass signet ring, a nacre and ghezyte dolphin ring with tiny web-spun sea blue tidal pearls, a timeworn elesine sack enhanced with bearpaw sewn-on pockets, a polished eonake flask with a blue-black diamond lid, an elegant black silk gem pouch sewn with butterflies surrounding a silver-edged sword, a sylvan scalp coin bag clasped by a chipped front tooth, some side-laced ramie silk leggings with tiny silvery snowflake buttons, a wave-linked silver charm anklet, and a pair of navy batiste stockings printed with cobalt-tinseled zaffre roses under some eonake-meshed ivory spidersilk boots.

Opalina and Trianvar Highlights written by Lady Iscikella Zinnonn:
"Opalina, taken through a strike of blinding lightning..."
"Trianvar blackmailed, threatening to kill loved ones of those that did not do his will."
"Trianvar, the blackmailer, decided early on he would attempt to keep his possessed, Opalina, stronger than the others by not draining her spirit. He had no qualms, however, about draining such from others to feed his need. Black smoke and a smell of sulphur forewarned his unholy presence."
"One on one, Thurfel could manage to thwart any lich. His magical puissance was still greater than any of theirs as a single entity. Thus were the liches intent on regaining the Staff of Amasalen. They knew they needed this artifact to have any chance of destroying the firemage. They sent "emissaries" to obtain the staff from Xeldria: Elendr, who was now Gavrail's in mind, heart and soul, as well as body, and Opalina, who was threatened by Trianvar with the decimation of everything she loved if she did not comply."
"Trianvar's proved the sixth orb, and again the finder, the bardess Tesserah, choose Thurfel over the lich. Almost mockingly, the vessel had lain "hidden" within the very mausoleum of Talbot Dabbings from which the Nine had escaped. Opalina was freed from possession with its recovery, as the angry lich killed her in retaliation."
"Trianvar finally drained the spirit from Opalina shortly before she was freed, realizing he needed the present power it would provide more than he needed her "stronger than the other possessed" at some future moment that might not come if the current one could not be controlled."
