Leafiara (prime)
Leafiara Autumnwind is a half-sylvan cleric of Tilamaire and citizen of Wehnimer's Landing. Though typically cheerful, she becomes ferociously defensive if her friends or her home are at risk and will attack with absolutely anything at her disposal--warding magic, bolt spells, two handed weapons, and [[::brawling|her own hands and feet]]--to protect her loved ones.

Eyes of the Dawn
Leafiara came to live in Wehnimer's Landing during the time of the war against Chaston Griffin, who exerted mental powers over the populace, turning them against [[::half-elf|half-elves]] as murderers and assassins. Though not a part of the [[::Wehnimer%27s_Landing_Militia/saved_posts|militia]], she made early efforts to patrol the town and root out snipers using herself as bait.
Soon afterward, the conflict escalated as Leafiara and hundreds of other half-elves were afflicted by a curse, later discovered to be the work of Raznel, which gave the appearance of black veins and caused debilitating outbreaks of sores and boils. Seeing the curse as a blood-related affliction, Leafiara approached the blood expert Cruxophim with an offer to gather half-elven blood samples for his study in efforts to find a cure. She at first supplied as many samples to Cruxophim as she could get hold of, all the while fired up and repelling Chaston's crusaders in their attacks on both the Landing and Vornavis as needed, but backed off with her blood collection efforts several weeks later after hearing certain unconfirmed reports about his past, previously unknown to her.
The situation worsened as Chaston's forces occupied the east side of the Landing and constructed cleansing camps, taking half-elven and half-krolvin prisoners to bleed and kill them. As with her self-sacrificial plan to root out snipers, Leafiara thought of infiltrating the camp under the guise of a prisoner, but before she could propose it to the militia she was captured and taken into the camps legitimately. There she might ultimately have died if not for Disean's unexpected intervention and setting her free. Making matters worse, she was kidnapped and bled again only a few days later, this time taken by Raznel herself onto a ship along with other half-elven Landing defenders.
Though horribly shaken from these experiences, Leafiara eventually made a full recovery from her trauma with the support of Severine and other friends and joined with dozens of Landing defenders aiding Rodnay in destroying Chaston's mental powers and then again in defeating Drangell and Chaston himself at Talador.
For her efforts in the war, she was ultimately recognized as one of a few trusted contacts in the Landing for the Scions of Shaundara.
