Shianni

Shianni is an outspoken member of the elven community in Denerim as well as a cousin of the City Elf.
== Background ==
Shianni was born in a freehold beyond the Elven Alienage in Denerim. When her mother died of a fever when the girl was six, Shianni's uncle Cyrion Tabris came to take her there to live. She mourned her mother and dreamed of her father returning for her, imagining him as a Dalish warrior who would take her away and teach her how to be a true elf.
In time she grew to love the Denerim alienage, however, and even Hahren Valendrian, who initially frightened her. To help with her adjustment and fears about moving to the city, Cyrion gave her a stuffed mabari toy belonging to the City elf Warden when he brought her to Denerim.
Shianni did not appear to desire marriage, and a suitable spouse was never found. She did, however, come to love the alienage and its people, who became her new family and friends. The injustice and squalor of the city elves' lives also fueled her passion to improve their lot as well as sparking her confidence, and she refused to let herself or her loved ones be taken advantage of by humans or even other elves. Personal tragedies served only to strengthen her resolve, and never broke her spirit.
