Appearance: Sephynalek has the build of the average Blood Elf woman: slender, petite, exaggeratingly beautiful. There still remains to be a few things that allow her to stand out in a crowd. Her frame appears more full, volumptuous, and quite a bit paler than average, and through her shirt is a hint of muscularity. 
Behind her thick red bangs are glowing emerald eyes, slanted in their own exotic beauty. Two large earrings are pierced into her lobes. Sephynalek has high cheekbones and has an angular jaw, much being the same characteristic for the rest of her face. 
She walks with an air of charm and innocence, and she stands with a strong sense of firm foundation. Quite a bit fo the time, though, she seems to be in her own little world. 
At her waist are two daggers, both sharpened and appearing to have been dipped in some vile concoction, leaving a glistening green-tinted coating on the blades. Her clothes show signs of wear and various amounts of stitching and substitue-padding to cover the largest of many holes. 
Around her left wrist is a silver bracelet with a little red gem in the center that seems to have a faint pulsing glow of its own, and on her left finger is an intricate sparkling wedding band. 
== Personality == 
Despite being a pickpocket and an assassin, Iaakys is an altruist - as a principle, the welfare of others that she isn't after is above her own interests. She is a kind and loving person out of battle, especially to those she can recognize as acquaintances or a friend.
Iaakys is also steadfast in what she does and believes in: when it is between her and her loved ones, honesty, trust, and loyalty are few of the things that she builds her ties upon.
This rogue is also very courteous of others when she's being socially acceptable. In other words, it can keep her out of unwanted trouble.
Iaakys, being all of these, still has her curious, impuslive side. Though, her fortitude was built due to this. Trouble normally comes with a beating, of course. 
Iaakys is also musically-inclined. Once she's gotten into a song, it's difficult for her to stop.
Oh, yeah, and another thing: Arachniphobia. 'Nuff said.
== Background== 
For the longest time, Iaakys didn't know how she suddenly existed in this world.
The blood elf was found wandering around on an isolated road, her clothing in tatters and her pale skin cut as if by a sword. Her body was sickly thin from starvation, her body covered in muck and dirt. She was found crawling on all fours by a wandering cloaked human woman. The woman, scared of this non-human creature, prepared herself to slaughter Iaakys until she noticed one thing: the blood elf's eyes. Iaakys was crying with true fear in her eyes. Not fear of being killed - fear that she is forever going to wander the world without anyone to provide her the warmth and nurture that she obviously needed.
Heartfelt at this image of a creature this lonesome and neglected, the human woman brought Iaakys with her to the outskirts of Lordaeron, slowly nursing the blood elf back to health. During this time, Iaakys was referred to as 'Scarlet' by the human woman, because of the red in her dark hair. Of course, as the years went by, the human 'foster mother' was convinced that Iaakys had the mind of a child and had reached two conclusions: Iaakys was either mentally handicapped, or something trigger a severe regression that caused her to act like an infant.
Eventually, over sixty years passed, and the human grew whithered with age. She could no longer take care of Iaakys, and the blood elf discovered this. Once again, like sixty years ago, Iaakys was on her own. 
About a month passed after Iaakys's caregiver passed away. The blood elf wandered again on the outskirts of Lordaeron and soon quite a ways away, deep in Silverpine Forest. There, she was suddenly grabbed from behind and something hit her head, blacking her out. 
When she finally recovered, Iaakys found herself being hovered by a cloaked figure. When her hood was removed, it was another human woman, though an elder. She held a knife a Iaakys's throat, threatening to take her life for her acts, repeatedly calling her 'Sephynalek' vehemently. Iaakys quickly insisted that she wasn't who this human was assuming she was. Who was this 'Sephynalek' she spoke of? Her name was 'Scarlet'. When the woman finally discovered that Iaakys had no idea what she was talking about, she put the knife away and just stared at Iaakys for the longest time. Then the woman looked as if she suddenly recalled something. This she explained to the blood elf: 
Her real name was Iaakys, the elderly woman explained.
Around sixty-seventy years ago, this human's parents were slaughtered by a raging madwoman called 'Sephynalek' and a necromancer at her side. This woman and her younger sister tracked down the bloodthirsty elf and the magic-user and spied on them and watched a wild Sephynalek take the life of a baby girl they heard being called 'Iaakys Moonglade'. The necromancer, infuriated, took her soul, crushed it, and replaced the hollow shell of Sephynalek with the spirit of the baby girl. They saw the necromancer approach the newly-spirited body and lift its chin, muttering something to her and the words 'my daughter' was heard by the spying girls. 
The necromancer spotted the woman's little sister and used black magic to choke her.
This kind of stuff obviously took Iaakys quite a bit of time to let sink in. Her soul was in the body of a murderess. She hasn't killed one person! What is going to happen to her? 
Several years passed by. Iaakys was discovered again by an academic professor and he quickly placed her in an academy. There, she learned the ways of being a rogue. Being a rogue, she will learn to hide from those she did not want their eyes to look upon and attempt to kill her as well. 
During her time at the academy, she learned to speak Thalassian and Orcish, and she met a kind and loving blind priestess named Selyni Keengaze. They became best friends up until Selyni had to go away to train in a seperate location the ways of a priestess. Iaakys, for the longest time, was in a state of denial and abandonment. During this, she met with a paladin blood elf named Marrnel Lightheart. After much awkwardness and false accusations, they became well-acquainted. Years later, they finally found the heart to admit that they were in love with each other. From Marrnel, Iaakys learned how to have a heart of gold, or at least close to it. No longer was she incredibly untrusting, paranoid, and shadowy; it was like she became an entirely new person. 
A while after the end of their academy years, Iaakys and Marrnel were finally adults. They made arrangements to be wed and went to check and see if they were eligible for children - they both wanted several. Much to their dismay, Iaakys was diagnosed to be barren. Before they could even plan out the rest of their life from that obstacle, Marrnel was sent in to Outlands, leaving Iaakys worried back in Silvermoon. 
Then one day, Iaakys found herself with a letter in her hand, proclaiming Marrnel's death in Outlands. This tore her heart to pieces, and she ran to an alley to mourn. Suddenly, she discovered herself to be taken advantage of by a mysterious creature, one she could tell had skin that's rotted away and a horrid face that stared at her as she screamed while she was being ravished by this undeath. There, in the alley, the creature left her to weep. 
These sudden events forced Iaakys into a state of mind that included extreme pessimism, distrust, and loathing and fear of the world. Just in the outskirts of Silvermoon City, Iaakys was run into a training rogue by the name of Kalarisath Redhilt. There, she was angry that he would not leave her side. When he annoyed her enough, she finally admitted her reason for her attitude toward life due to the fact that her closest loved one was killed and that only moments later, she was raped. 
At some point, she found herself again lying on her back, but on a bed in one of the inns in Silvermoon. She couldn't remember a thing. Iaakys suddenly got up and was bright and cheery. Marrnel was going to return to her any day now, she just knew it! When she went outside of the city, there Kalarisath waited for her. After much confusion, Kalarisath managed to get her to remember him, even if only a little. Then he mentioned how he was the person who was going to protect her from then on. She was perplexed as to why. Kalarisath did not respond. 
Kalarisath was also the one who had to tell Iaakys (or remind her) that Marrnel was dead. This seemed to hit her like this was the first time she's ever heard this information. She broke down in tears, and Kalarisath was there to comfort her. 
Eventually, they became closer and closer as each day passed. Before she knew it, she was in love again. At the time of the Lunar Festival, Kalarisath finally asked her to marry him. She could not refuse. 
They married. And to this day, they can be seen battling creatures and monsters alike in combat side-by-side, the love remaining in their eyes to each other even as their blades meet flesh.
