Elsa the Enigmatic

Elsa Accalia was born amongst scholars in the Citadel of Vlanir. Elsa’s much older brother Elso was her main family, as her parents largely wanted her to devote all her time to her studies so she could grow up to be a scholar. This is mainly because Elsa’s parents were very disappointed in Elso’s strive to perform magic; they are both born sorcerers. Elso would often play with Elsa when she was a child, showing off his tricks and illusions to an easily-enthralled Elsa. Elsa’s childhood was spent either in her private study or in the gardens of the Citadel playing with Elso.

Eventually, Elso would join the newly formed Dextrous Individuals and embark on quests across the land to record information. This left Elsa alone for long periods of time, interspersed with visits from Elso every time he would deliver his information. During visits, he would tell the wondrous tales of his exploits, which took place in many places Elsa had never been taught nor had heard of. She eventually developed a new resolve: to become a Dextrous Individual like Elso. However, this path would bring ruin to the family name and result in her parents losing all respect for her.

Some time past where Elsa did not hear from Elso. She began to become worried, and started to ask questions that no one would answer. It was only her development of her magic skills that she was able to eavesdrop that Elso had defected. She also heard that the other Dextrous Individuals were going to hunt him down and lock him up, or even worse, enact justice on the spot. Elsa was so overcome with emotion that she forced herself into the conversation to try and persuade them against it. She was disciplined and sent back to her study. Elsa had had enough. Gathering her things, she escaped her study and began to leave to find Elso herself. On the way, she happened to find Elso’s arcane focus (a chain around an emblem, one that is given to all Dextrous Individuals). With the arcane focus in hand, she fled the Citadel.

She ventured into the wilderness, inquiring towns and wayward souls about Elso's whereabouts. It wasn't until she met up with Leos Whitewind that she had a solid lead. She joined their adventure, which along the way, led her to be reunited with Elso. However, upon completing the adventure, Elso promptly disappeared. Now more confident with herself after defeating an Elder Brain, Elsa returned to the Citadel to report to the Individuals and take Elso’s place amongst them.
