Personality

Lumi, by her very nature (and because of certain physical and psychological limitations) is a quiet, thoughtful person. She takes her time analyzing situations from every angle, balancing pros and cons, and making well-balanced, rational decisions. Because she is unable to speak aloud, she had to think carefully about the things she 'says' with her hands, and when she does speak, it comes from her heart, and people are often more inclined to listen because she doesn't say too much to begin with.

She is afraid of her mother, who is the current ruling Queen of Lumi's home realm. The woman in question was emotionally abusive during Lumi's childhood, causing her to turn mute at a very young age. Lumi was manipulated by her mother, training to fight with blades rather than being allowed to advance in her magic studies. As a result, Lumi is a calculated, talented fighter, especially when it comes to hand-to-hand combat. She follows orders well, but sometimes has issues when her personal morals and beliefs conflict with the tasks she has been assigned.

As she grew in power and maturity, she obtained a dragon form that she can change into at will.

More often than not, however, she will overcome her own personal convictions and carry out her duties.

Equipment

Lumierre carries two blades, one on each hip. The thin chain that connects to two can be charged with magical energy, making it unbreakable and potentially lethal to touch. She wraps the chain around her waist to avoid tripping over the excess. In addition to the knives, Lumi is able to use magic, but her power waxes and wanes with the phases of the moon. She is most powerful at night, regardless of the moon's phase. Though she has not spoken a word since she was a child, she uses sign language to communicate, a silver mist lingering around her hands and drawing pictures as she signs.

She also carries with her a tall, white staff carved by her own father. The length of the staff is laced in white-gold, the top of the staff set with an intricate orb that better absorbs and channels the energy she absorbs during the moon phases. It provides her with an extra supply of energy when the moon is nonexistent, or very very thin. An egret's flight feathers are attacked to white-gold chains that dangle from the orb at the top. In order to absorb the moon's energy, Lumi performs a one-man ceremony when she is out beneath a full moon. She dances, swinging the staff in high arches so that the energy can be efficiently and quickly absorbed.

History

Lumierre looked up into her mother’s eyes, barely able to stretch higher than the belt buckle on her mother’s slender waist, even on tiptoes. The beautiful woman bent down to cup her daughter’s chin in her hand, a smile on her thin lips as her silver hair formed a curtain around their faces.

“My child, you must never speak. Do you understand me? Never at all. Your voice is much too lovely. You will never be liked for who you truly are, so you must never speak. You wish to be honest, yes?”

The girl nodded, her young, dark eyes wide as she gazed into her mother’s face.

“I. . .” But her mother rudely slapped her across the cheek before the words could come out. Tears sprang to her eyes, slipping down the hot skin and off of her chin.

“What did I say, Lumi?” her mother demanded. The girl looked up at her in puzzlement, then down at her hands. Slowly, she formed the words she wanted to speak by forming the signs with her hands. A mist trailed from her fingertips, like smoke off of a fire.

“You speak this way from now on. No man shall ever hear your voice. Not ever.”

***

Born August 21, the princess Lumierre Lacopt became the first and only child of Driselda Lacopt and her deceased husband, King Faryn Lacopt of the Lunar Elf tribe. The child was doted upon from birth, raised in the traditional fashion that was to be expected of royalty. She was showered with finery, given maid servants as she grew older, and nannied until she was old enough to attend scholarly lessons. Her primary activities consisted of playing with other children of royal descent, reading ancient spell books that were given as gifts from her tutors, and practicing her innate magical capabilities.

As time passed, and the child grew to adolescence, it became apparent that the princess was far more talented than anyone could expect. Thoughts could produce action without her having to lift a finger, and the spells she uttered, even the more minor spells, proved to be far more powerful when she spoke them then when any other mage spoke the same spell. Her mother, Driselda, grew jealous of her only daughter, fearing that her power would lead her to attempt a takeover of the throne.

So the psychological abuse and manipulation began. Driselda slowly, steadily worked her way into the mind of her gentle daughter, feeding her lies about herself, promising that if she spoke aloud she would bring pain to those who heard her. It drove the child to a near-permanent refusal to speak to anyone with words. She adopted signing as her primary method of communication, and carried that later on into her young adulthood.

Her mother insisted that she begin training to be a soldier, so she sent Lumierre away to train with Aiden Sentilion, a half-breed who had been shamed by the clan for his origins. There she learned to fight, to use her magical capabilities without words, and steadily grew in power and maturity. When political unrest began to rear its ugly head, Aiden suggested that Lumi go away to learn more about the outside world, unwilling to tell her that her own mother was plotting her untimely demise.

So Lumi went, and found a friend in Drakus Flavaar, beginning an adventure unlike anything she’d ever thought she would experience.

Yet her mother will always hunt her.
