### Backstory

Adrel grew up in the small druid town of Daymere within the Wood Elf domain, here she was taught about the ways on nature and so grew a strong bond with the earth. Her community was very tight knit, sharing large communal spaces and doing many activities together, such as hunting. She was taught spellcasting and shape-shifting by the elders of her community. She grew to hold a particular interest in the equilibrium of the elements and started learning how to fight to try and help her community fight the cults of Elemental Evil. Adrel had often travelled with her mother, due to her mother being a highly trained healer, she had travelled to Tudia on a multitude of occasions.

When Adrel was 21 she travelled to Tudia to help her mother heal a rare disease, whilst running to buy supplies she ran into an off-duty knight, who offered to help her carry her many supplies. The knight was Erris and during her stay they grew to be close friends, so much so that she decided to stay a while longer and work in a small apothecary shop. Her and Erris developed a romantic relationship and when Adrel was 24, Erris proposed to her, which she accepted. At 28 Adrel, had Elqen and at 30 she had Ronan. Throughout, this time Adrel stayed in the city practising her spellcasting and shapeshifting and keeping her strong connection to the earth through making regular visits to Daymere. At 37, Erris had developed a short-term relationship with the Queen Briar, not long after she gave birth to Cairie and died shortly after. Rurik then requested for Erris to take care of Cairie, due to the danger hanging over her.

Due to this the Varo's were forced to relocate. Adrel suggested her hometown due to her certainty that they would be safe there. For the twelve years that Cairie lived with the Varo's they were safe and well taken care of. When Cairie was nearing her twelfth birthday King Rurik decided that it was safe for Cairie to return to the Capital and so she did, Adrel and Erris stayed in Daymere and stayed in regular contact with Cairie until she turned 17, and they sent a letter saying they were going to start travelling the continent. Adrel has not sent any form of contact since then.
