Probably one of those posts where I just have a bazillion tangents... sorry.
Aurora is a character I originally created for another story entirly. She was just a single character among many in a story which was far too crowded. She was my favorite of those and when I scraped that story I couldn't make myself throw here into the bin with everything else. So, she got transfered stories...
Light elf of the purest bread, she would be queen if there weren't such strict rules on who can inherit the crown. She's considered to be the shy beauty, golden blond hair, shinning blue eyes and gourgiously toned skin. She's very strong in music, being able to play the piano, harp, flute and sing.
Though born in the Eastern World she was raised from here twenty-third birthday to here eighty-second year in the Central World. Upon return to here home land she becomes Ralen's closest confident and the two fall in love and on Ralen's little becoming king day, they get married, as is tradition.
Now, if you've read the last post on the story of Audriel and Aberis you might feel confused. Ralen, being cursed to only father male children, and Aurora, cursed to only bear female children... well, naturally they cancel each other out, end up having 21 kids in their very long elven lives, 14 which are female and 7 male.
Aurora, shows up several times through the series, but only really has any importance in the first and last books.
Though she's the oldest character that I've created in the series I feel like I've poorly formed her character, and really could add more detail. [oldest as in she's existed in my mind for the longest]. That tends to be a flaw of mine. I create great and complexed characters, but the further back you go the more shallow and schetchy my characters get.
I have a feeling that Aurora is very wise though, beyond her years, even as an elf. Beauty and wisdom... that's what she is my dear reader... I should draw her some time...
