Skyra

**Voiced By:** | Ashleigh Ball

**Skyra** is a wind elf who resides in Elvendale. She, along with Emily, are the two guardians of the portal, and is one of the legendary Five Sisters.

## Official Biography

She is the Wind Elf of the mythological five sisters that brought magic into the Elven world.
* Personality: She is modest and a little sentimental because she misses her sisters. She tends to be controlled by her emotions: when she is happy, she is open and welcoming and even her castle lights up; when she is unhappy, everything shuts down and she will not listen to anyone. Because of her bond with Emily, she is willing to help the team a lot – but if she didn’t know them, she might not.
* Strengths: Her magic is incredibly strong but not as strong as her mind. She can do anything she sets her mind to and is very world wise. She is modest and hides how powerful and smart she really is. A very strategic thinker, but when emotions get in her way, a darker and more wicked side will show.
* Flaws: She is a bit too stubborn and if she is badly hurt, she will turn her back to the world and unintentionally seem mean (“evil”). Can be socially awkward.
* Skills: She is not one to show off, but her wisdom and magic powers are incredible. She is one of the oldest elves in the world – and perhaps the strongest.
* Favorite things: Golden Glow (her Pegasus), family, great heights, singing, everything white, riddles, staying at home, listening to stories.

## Personality

Skyra seems rather cold and heartless, but she really just misses her sister, Emily's grandmother. When given the chance, she is really kind and caring. Being one of the eldest in the world, she is very wise and can help others when she wants. But she almost always likes to have her way, and can be a little stubborn about it. She has few friends, but is always willing to help Farran Leafshade, Azari Firedancer, Aira Windwhistler, and Naida Riverheart, as they are friends of Emily. She is often imperious and scornful, but lenient toward Emily, her sister's granddaughter.

## Appearance

Most of Skyra’s lavender hair is worn up in a bun, with the exception of two spiraling tendrils on either side of her face. She also has deep-blue eyes, a light complexion, and a swirling gold crown on her forehead.

Skyra habitually wears a white, long-sleeved dress with swirling gold accents. A pair of golden wings extends from either side of her head, while voluminous tufts of white feathers adorn her shoulders.  Her ever-present gold staff is topped with a blue jewel. She also dons a long, deep-purple cape.

## Relationships

### Family

Emily's grandmother and Quartzine were her sisters, as well as unnamed fire and water elves.

Cronan is her nephew.

She is Emily and Sophie's great aunt.

Richard was her brother-in-law.

### Friends

Skyra is acquainted with Emily Jones, her grand-niece, as well as Azari Firedancer, Aira Windwhistler, Naida Riverheart and Farran Leafshade. She is on good terms with them, especially when they needed her help for the Elvendale Ball in "Hairy Styles."

Golden Glow and Nascha are Skyra’s animal companions.

## Trivia

* It can be argued that Skyra is the villain of Season 1, as she was originally cruel to Emily, condemning her to a life trapped in Elvendale. In the book "Quest for the Keys," Skyra actually attacks Emily and the elves with hurricanes. She also uses her wind powers to levitate vines in an attempt to attack them.
* Ashleigh Ball voices Emily, Aira, Skyra, and Mrs. Jones.
* Her name comes from the word "sky." According to some sources, "Skyra" means eternal life, strength, love and beauty, which could be referencing to her immortality, powerful wind magic, her love for her sisters and her young appearance despite her age.
