Neyir

## **Neyir, Sky Queen**

Neyir's current body is a young eagle. Her true body is a small humanoid with curly blue hair. As an air elemental Neyir can control wind around her with great precision.

Before becoming The Queen of Skies Neyir used to annoy people in living in Mountains of Gale for fun. She had zero respect for others and felt no responsibility for her actions, but nonetheless she had some dignity, and never killed or purposefully endangered others. Taking the body of a bird and realizing that will die because she killed their mother changed her and Neyir learned to care about not only herself.

Neyir is an elemental and biologically has no gender. She uses female pronouns.

## **Story**

Power of lesser Eternal Ones may be weaker than power of true Gods or Demons, but limitation is the mother true creativity. While Demons can create a Body for themselves, elementals has to use more shady ways to get a physical vessel - steal it. Using a corpse is easy way, but they are also able to possess living beings if their Mind cannot withstand. Years ago lone air elemental Neyir was running for her life in Mountains of Gale. After causing a lot of destruction in small villages for her own amusement villagers hired actual demon hunter for who catching cocky elemental would be like walk in the park. In desperate attempt to escape, Neyir possessed a giant bird completely destroying bird's Mind to save time. She managed to flee, but had to stay in stolen body until demon hunter left the mountains. Having nothing better to do Neyir decided to browse the memories of her new host to discover painful truth - the bird was a mother going back to her nest. Neyir wasn't the nicest being on Greavesoyl but killing innocent bird was enough even for her. Feeling guilty elemental decided to stay in mountains as mother of nestling and raised them with care.

Through her stay in mountains as bird she has changed. Before this event Neyir was just selfish elemental caring only about herself, but raising three cute birds allowed her to learn what it means to love something. She kept bird's body and vowed to protect the mountains that gave her chance for redemption.

To this day large gray bird named by locals The Sky Queen protect animals and sometimes humans too from danger in their mountain habitat. She is worshiped almost as goddess by those who hated her before, and nobody knows that their protector is in reality just air elemental who wanted to fix her mistakes.

## **In-game**

Neyir is the worst nightmare of any ranged damage dealers. Her Nesting Storm blocks all of their damage and crowd control, while Pin the Prey renders their escape (in most cases) useless. With her full combo she can hold a target down for 5-6 seconds, and even with her abilities on cooldown she still can easily dodge their attacks thanks to her increased movement speed. Although her damage is relatively low, she is still able to win 1v1 against certain characters like Cremator or Eleya. She isn't nearly as strong against melee fighters or assassins, but there is no better pick when facing a team with multiple ranged characters.
