Baroness **Halaena Bloodsong-Rimebinder** is a "Kaldorei" noblewoman who rules over a barony within Duskwood and owns land in Unincorporated Kul Tiras.

She is a Peace Seeker who longs for a change where all can be looked upon as equals. She thrives to assist those in need and welcomes them to a Sanctuary where they can feel at peace with other like minded individuals. Those in the City who are cast aside for beliefs, magic or conditions forced upon them are known to be welcomed as family alongside many others.

## Personality & Beliefs

Halaena is no stranger to being disgraced or looked down upon. She was hated for being a Kaldorei and liking things no other women among her kin held interest for. She found her place along side others after hardship and dedication where she has become the person she is today. She believes in looking at others with an open perspective into their life. To see past the rough or fearful shell and offer kind words or even a hand to hold for those that need it.

Halaena dedicates her life to the well being of others. Offering a home to feel accepted or company to those who need it. She follows laws where laws are needed but prefers to stand between the lines of good and evil as a bridge to pass between, seeing as even in dark places there are those who shine the brightest.

## Description

A Kaldorei woman in appearance, She has short pointed ears, Dark gray skin, and short horns that protrude from her head. Her hair is a dark blue but the tips can be seen to glow as if lit on fire. Her frame is thin but tall. Halaena's eyes are always covered with a thin cloth allowing her to see through but preventing others to meet her gaze.

In the mid of her back lays a dark purple Tattoo, twisted vines covered in thorns to make the shape of a withering Tree.

## Biography

Memory of her past was always difficult for her to remember. Her earliest memories began five years ago. Living in Northrend, a run down shack during the dead of winter with a few others. Kaldorei, human, and others all huddled to keep warm and scrounge for food. It was cold, chilled to the bone with their only salvation being the one they followed. He spoke of something better for them, they just needed to stay strong. That winter was difficult, painful, to which many didn't make it and those who did headed off as soon as they could to find their own life. Halaena was of the many that nearly died that winter but the one they followed saved her. From then she had dedicated her life to him, his name was Rancero.

When winter was finally over they took a ship to Stormwind to start a new life, it was only the two of them. She loved him and looked up to him, he kept her safe and taught her things she didn't understand. However she was unaware of the lies and trickery he had woven over her eyes. It was on a late night at the beginning of the summer. There were crimes occurring in the city, shady folks looked at with hatred and assumed to be of some evil being or part of some wicked group. Halaena didn't know people back then, she felt like an outcast in society. The night was young and so her adventurous thoughts carried her steps. It was in the cemetery when she met him, an unknown Knight laying in shambles looking to be in pain. She sought to help him, only for the stranger to disregard her as something dark. Even though reassuring the man that she was only there to help, he continued to berate her, call her names. Hated her for what she looked like.

There was a change in her that night. A change that set her on the course she's on today. A want to be seen and accepted as she is and deliver the same to others. Since then, she separated herself from Rancero's manipulation and found a family from the people she met with the same ideologies of acceptance and peace to any who may seek it.

## Relationships

When first brought to the City of Stormwind, Halaena found it uneasy to make friends. However it was during that struggle when she met others who also had difficulty with finding their place. That is when she decided to create **Midnight Repose.** A sanctuary for others who seek company or acceptance. During these years, she has formed many close friendships; some she even considers family due to their shared history and understanding.

Nivlac Blackthorn was the first of many to be part of her family, and the first Paladin to ever show kindness to her. They became the closest of friends before fully creating a family like bond. She sees him as an older brother figure.

Countess Tanila Dal'Aresh was taken into her family after a heroic mission where the **Midnight Repose** saved her from the grasp of Mantis warriors, and have since forged a strong sisterly bond that grows ever stronger..

Klimin Bloodsong-Rimebinder was found wandering Stormwind City when Halaena had invited him along on a merry Tavern hop. From there he told her many stories about the world, much of which Halaena had not known. They spent every day together and their bond only grew closer and closer as days went by. On June 20th, 634 KY, Klimin and Halaena were married. They now have a full household of many critters they hold dear.

A rescued creature named Goruu is both Klimin and Halaena's adopted Son. Alyreth Rimebinder, a young Kaldorei who Klimin took into his care years ago, is also their adopted daughter.
