==A Mage Apart==
===Personality===
:Lillian is emotionally fragile. She is upset quickly and is likely to react in one of two ways - break down, or break out. One the one hand, the offender will have a blubbering mess to contend with. And on the other hand, said offender would be running for cover from a violent mage. Only on these stolen occasions would she flex her true power in public.
===Appearance===
:Lillian is small and slender, with long curled locks of platinum hair and soft skin of a mildly tanned appearance. She has no set dress code, and wears whatever feels comfortable at the time.
===Skills and Abilities===
====Magic====
:Lillian is capable of wielding arcane pulses, which are visually disturbances of the air and not physically distinguishable, due to the nature of the Arcane not having a natural substance.
She is mildly able with fire spells, generally small bursts of fire - nothing powerful.
Her ability with ice magic is undeveloped and she generally does not use it.
:Arcane Blast: A compression blast that is capable of knocking a foe down or damaging armour.
:Portal: A rift in space-time that offers transit from one distant location to another.
:Teleport: A phase-shift in space-time that moves Lillian quickly a short distance, or with some time to concentrate, a more distant location.
:Fire Blast: A quick burst of fire, best used to disorient a foe or burn mildly.
====Armaments====
:Lillian is competent with a whip, but her weapons of choice lie in firearms.
=====Right Hip: Melee=====
:Wrench Worn on her toolbelt. Not normally used in a fight unless necessary.
:Bullwhip A simple leather corded bullwhip.
=====Left Hip: Small Arms=====
:Revolver Eight chamber long-barrel single-action steel revolver. Well-kept.
:Modified Pistol Revolver Mechanically altered double-action revolver, designed to hold ten rounds instead of eight.
:FASER Focused Arcanic Semi-Energetic Rectifier. Fires short pulses of energy that can briefly stun a target.
=====Back Sling: Rifle=====
:Shotgun Twelve-gauge, smooth-bore pump-action fowling piece, loaded with either double-aught buckshot or rifled slugs.
:Hunting Rifle .22 bore, lever-action rifle.
:Lillian always has her wrench, often has a shotgun, and sometimes keeps a small firearm on her person. Never more than one kind of weapon (such as two revolvers, or a shotgun and a rifle).
====Protection====
:Lillian relies on her guile and ability to move to prevent harm. As such, she does not have the raw power to her body to support heavy armour, and sticks to wearing lightweight cloth fabric.
====Engineer====
:Lillian is an Engineer! She has the ability to construct small explosives, tools, machines, trinkets and devices, as well as modifying existing machines. She excels at microengineering (fine electrics and electronics), and engine driven machines (anything motorized or powered).

== History ==
=== A Mage is Born: Year 600-618 ===
Lillian was born Ezra Leclaire, the daughter of a powerful Illusionist of the Kirin Tor. After her mother perished to the Scourge, it was determined they would come for the girl next. Her power was suppressed and she was sent to the Stormwind Orphanage, her papers identifying her only as "Lillian", without a last name.
:She was arranged with the Warren family living in Westfall, and her full name was given as Lillian Yvette. They never told her about her heritage - they never had a chance. The Defias swept through Westfall when she was only 6, and Lillian was discovered by a militia group.
She was returned to the Orphanage - where her magic began to assert itself. She was in danger of self-destruction, as her tender years didn't afford her the will to control any of it.
:A magister, Thaddius Monteagle, residing in Northshire took charge of her. He called her Liywar, a nickname that stood for her adoptive name - and it stuck. She spent her formative years in the Abbey, learning to harness her subdued magic.
She found herself having great difficulty fitting in with the other pupils. High class, noble blood and well-educated (as well as nearly all at least a decade older). They looked down on her, offended by what they saw as nothing but a commoner; a freak of nature farm girl who didn't deserve to weild the Arcane.
:Shortly after her 18th birthday, Magister Monteagle was struck with a fatal illness. She sat at his bedside in his final hours. After his death, she had nowhere to go. She left the Abbey.
=== The Scarlet Order: Year 618-622 ===
Her departure from the Abbey was bittersweet. It was best for her to see the open world, and be away from the place where her mentor had been laid to rest. She began to take on work in the surrounding cities and towns, serving tables or cleaning up the lodgings. She was guiding a horse-drawn cart of items from Stormwind to the neighbouring hamlet of Goldshire when she was accosted by thieves, demanding they turn over the items in exchange for her life.
:Her reaction was what drew the attention. She pulled a shotgun out of the cart and fired it into the air, staring down the head honcho.
:"Try it. Whoever lives gets to take the loot home with them."
They'd come looking for an easy swipe from a little girl such as she, and hadn't expected her to be toting a rifle. They left, resentfully. And from the shadows, stepped Rosemela. The encounter was enough for Rosemela to offer Lillian a place to hang her boots and relax among friends. And offer more than a simple job.
:It was then that her entry to the Scarlet Order had begun. Some time she spent amongst them, led by Semperius and his nobles - but things were about to change.
=== Slavery, and Sargeras: Year 622 ===
She was lulled into betraying Semperius and departing the Scarlet Order, drawn to the Eyes of Chaos. Though she would find herself as a pet of a lecherous man. Bound by a cult of Sargeras, SAEGOTHA, Lillian spent months in quiet service before interest in her was lost enough that she was able to slip away unnoticed. Her experience in slavery is best left undescribed.
=== For King and Country: Year 622 ===
Rosemela discovered Lillian a few weeks after her escape. She'd inebriated herself and collapsed against a fence, sobbing. Rosemela took her to shelter and promised to care for her. Her promise faltered, as Rosemela disappeared one day, leaving a title deed to the Scarlet Raven Tavern in Darkshire in Lillian's name, and Lillian was again, on her own.
:Finding no satisfaction on her own, and no excitement in day-to-day life to keep her from going insane, she joined the military and served in active combat roles in several engagements with Horde forces. She somehow managed to avoid ever going to Draenor during the campaign against the Burning Legion.
Lillian put two tours into the expedition into Northrend, earning a Medal of Valour and the Crusade's equivalent to the "Purple Heart", for being wounded in the siege of the Crusader's Pinnacle.
:And then she met the love of her life; or so she believed.
Her name was Lasaire. She was beautiful and made her smile always. They even married - thought it didn't last. Lasaire left her; even going so far as to demand back her ring.
On the offer to start a new life, with new friends, she resigned her commission with the Argent Crusade.
=== Love, Loss, and Languish: Year 624 ===
She met a few friends. The young warlock Kamaris Vargo, and the elegant, pale "Kal'Dorei" known as Thanatosa (it is now known that the Kal'Dorei appearance is not authentic). She took under her banner; The Shadow Song.
The Shadow Song was her port in the storm; so she thought. But with a new home came new challenges. She entered the sleepy town in a time of turbulence. Dangerous people sweeping down to knock the hamlet off the map.
:She became the object of a vicious man's eye. Glenn Darksoul. It wouldn't be long before his smug superiority and his confidence overrode his better judgment; one encounter with Lillian resulted in her becoming pregnant.
The pregnancy was short; five months. Lillian refused to have the baby killed, despite the danger it represented; a spawn of Glenn Darksoul, whose son, Drakion, swore revenge against.
:Lillian's tenure was pockmarked with hatred and pain. Villains, psychopaths, angry mobs, demons and killers. The only highlight was meeting a new woman. Dorithur Scythekiss, a brash Sin'Dorei wearing the arcanic disguise of a Night Elf. The two fell in love, and promised one day to marry.
And then the Ghola arrived. A race of engineered clones, from another world, descending to Azeroth to procure specimens, and lay waste to the rest. Among their targets, Lillian.
She was approached in the fields one night by a man, claiming to be a friend of Thanatosa. Before she knew it, she was tagged by a teleportation. Where she went, she will never say.
:A fascimile had taken her place, but was sniffed out, and executed. Lillian was eventually returned.
It was time to take action. With the help of her new friend, the portly, bearded Taal'ka Pythoon, sought out the vessel that brought the Ghola to Azeroth. Lillian was thought to have been killed when the vessel was destroyed, but she was discovered alive in an escape vehicle, in suspended animation, two months afterward.
:She returned to a casualty list. Friends were dead. Kamaris was gone. Thanatosa had left the order she created. Even Dorithur had given her up for dead.
By the end of the year, the Shadow Song was declared defunct and was disassembled. But Lillian wouldn't see the people she'd fought side by side with separated and spread out to die. She would act. That act became... the Nightfall Coalition. Cannibalizing the dispersed Shadow Song members, the finest she knew of, she formed her union, to continue the legacy of Shadow Song in her own way.
