The Papers
History: Hundred or so years ago, bliss's mother, a pure elf gave birth to her in their cottage outside of the elven city, Aglar Arda. Bliss was named after a name that her mother had heard being used for children, and therefore, named her Bliss, Jocelyn after a storybook name she had been told of when she herself was a child. Bliss's father, Randar was a loyal father to his wife then, but when she began to become over-protective, smothering both him and Bliss, he began to teach his young daughter the ways of the elves, but also the humans, as their world began to crumple. Having been born during the wars, or so it felt like to young Bliss, she trained hard and learned exceptionally well from both her father and her mentor.
When Bliss was about 20 in elven years, making her appear about 10 in appearance, mind she was 20, but when that happened, Randar came home one day with a half-elven half-human infant girl in his arms. Surprised, her mother immediately began to claim he'd had an affair on her. Worried, Bliss tried to calm their emotions, her empathy for her parents overwhelming (not a power, just empathy young children tend to have sometimes). Crying, she asked why mother was angry with father, before Randar asked if they could raise her, having found the child outside of their city while he had been exploring. After this incident, Bliss was thrilled to have a younger sister, though just a few months later, both the young girl and her mother vansihed from both her and her father's lives.
Broken-hearted, Randar started up Bliss's training once more, using her elven speed and agility to her advantage in her fightiny style. She quickly adapted and made her own fighting style on top of the one her father and mentor had taught her. It's where she fights as if she's an animal. If she falls onto her hands and knees, she'll use her legs as if she were a cat and strike out at her opponent, then flip away to grab her weapon. She matured, and grew up from sticks to her infamous hand-knives she uses, as well as shruikans, which are really throwing-stars she uses to either clip someone, or pin them to something..or someone. Randar saw promise in his young daughter, but her emotions always toyed with her logic. If he asked her to do something that might cause someone else harm, she would rarely do it unless she had to chose between life or death.
Once Bliss became old enough, Randar gave her Hvitr, and that's when Bliss found out she could speak to Hvitr, and later on, Crimson Moon and Zodiac through a mind-link. Most elves had this in her family, and even outside of it. Zodiac was a cub when Bliss found her while out on a travel on Hvitr's back. The large stallion reared, but once Bliss found out what was causing his panic, she adopted the young cub into her life. As she traveled, maturing, learning and soon adopting Crimson Moon, she ran into her father in a human town, and she now lives with him, as he aids her once in awhile with the search for her younger half-sister which Randar had told her. He did have an affair with a human woman, and therefore, her younger half-sister, Elwing was born. Bliss won't give up searching for her, until the day she dies.

The Papers
History: Her history is long and horrible, and it started when her mother, a human named Helena Morgan fell for an elf that had been travelling through her town for a few days. The two immediately fell for each other, though after they slept together, Randar admits he was married, and his wife and child were back in Aglar Arda waiting for his return. Once he confided in her with that, Helena, the gorgeous blonde sought by many in her small village, felt rage, and fury towards this elf who had swooned her. Immediately, her magic sparked, and a fire consumed the house they'd been in together. Angry at his betrayal, she ran from him, and a few months later, found out she was pregnant. Hearing from Randar through letters, she never wrote back, heading to her sister's place in Anorith. Her sister, Levila happily took her younger sister in, and when her daughter was born, she immediately named her Elwing Lelanda, then gave her last name, Morgan, since she was her daughter and her father wasn't around.
Shortly thereafter, Helena vanished after a fight, and Randa reappeared, searching for the blonde infant. The young girl screamed when he took her from Levila's arms, though her aunt told him if he ever harmed her, then she would personally hunt him down and kill him herself with her bare hands. But, Levila, had a gift of her own - precognition. It was very weak, and came at random times, but she had had a vision about Randar's and Helena's daughter. She would be powerful, but she wouldn't know how to use the power. Rander took it to heart, though he, being a proud elven male hardly paid attention to the sister of his lover's child. Holding her gently, Elwing was taken to her step-mother, and she remembers Yunra's face when Randar admitted she was the love-child between him and a human woman.
Angerily, when Elwing was older, she had been playing with Bliss, her caring older sister, when Yunra asked her to come see her. Obediently, Elwing went to her mother, and looked up to her silently, before that's when she was taken away from everything she knew and loved. The young girl was taken to the human realm, and Yunra, disgusted with her husband's infidelity and his child with another woman, raised her herself in a cottage in nature. Elwing enjoyed being with her mother - or so she thought. She played everyday outside, and after dinnertime, Yunra would teach her different things, fighting, spells with potions, and basic elven things, as well as human things. Elwing knew she was different, when she was 8 or so, looking 8 as well, men came to their cottage.
Looking up from her studies, Elwing turned to her mother, blonde hair bouncing along her shoulders as she asked why they were here. Yunra, giving her a gentle smile told her they were going to be taking care of her for awhile. Yunra vanished, and Elwing was given to traders, slavers, what-ever they were when she was 8 up until just recently. She screamed and attempted to run, before they managed to grab ahold of her. Crying, the young girl sobbed as they stuffed her into a bag and onto a horse, and she woke up in a town she didn't recognize. Looking around in the town through the bag of what she could see, she wriggled, and bit, receiving a harsh slap in turn. The young girl cried softly, before being turned over to these men's boss. He was a gruff man, in his mid-to-late-twenties and handled her roughly along with the 15-year-old she was there with. They acted as his daughters in public, but in private, they were his slaves.
She was 10 when she was raped by the man who claimed he would never harm her. Elwing's trust shattered, and she had learned one could never trust men. They were vile creatures and they only lied to get what they wanted. She kept working, remembering the lessons Yunra had taught her when she was growing up, and the other slave girl, who was named Greenaropa (just typed letters, lawl), or Grena as she was usually called taught her things she knew too. Though, as Elwing grew, she was shipped to a "ranch" like area. Immediately, she cried every night almost, and then she began to experience interesting things when she was about 16.
The teenager finished her chores, and avoided the men best she could, as she then looked up, and when a man approached her, that look in his eyes, she immediately turned away, but when he grabbed her, she shoved him away, her anger rearing. When that happened, ice appeared from mid-air, and the guy then froze. Shocked, Elwing darted away as guys surrounded him, attempting to figure out what happened. She looked to her hands, and then, the water in a nearby vase floated in mid-air. Wide-eyed, she looked towards it, but when she moved her hand, it moved with it. Working with it, the blonde found out she could control water in air, solid and liquid form.
One night after a guy had her in bed with him, she was hand-cuffed to make sure she wouldn't run for the next day when the Commander of the "ranch" for horses came. Though, she managed to slice through it with force of water, and get away. Grabbing Grena during the middle of the night, they both ran into the nearby forest. After they entered another village nearby, Elwing stumbled into someone, a woman (Levila), who then said her name, Elwing. Worried, she asked how she knew, and the woman told her, she was her aunt, and she knew about her family. Grena vanished, saying she'd see her again some day. Levila revealed everything she could, that Elwing was half-human half-elf...that Levila was her mother's sister, and Randar was her real father, an elf.
Afterwards, Elwing remained with Levila for a few months as she regained turst in the woman, though none in men, especially Levila's honest son who remained away from Elwing after she told them her distrust in males of any race. Soon, Elwing discovered her ability of controlling fire, water, earth and air. Though, she has seemed to master water decently, she has earth down slightly, though air and fire are so unpredictable. Levila told her to be wary of who she uses her powers for, since some might want to take advantage of her. Wary, Elwing soon went into hiding, but still searches for her half-sister Levila told her, who was looking for her as well.
