## History

### **PRE-SIABRAE WAR**

Loana originally hailed from the outskirts of Athawin Shallows within the seas. She is descended from a line of nomadic kinetic warriors, and the innate gift of elemental affinity courses through her blood as well. Life was relatively peaceful in Athawin, with Loana humbly honoring the way of life as an ascetic warrior, much like her ancestors before her, until the rise of the various extraplanar threats, blight included, that endangered the land and all of its people. The gravity of the situation had pushed her to venture forth to unlock greater potential within herself, so that she could protect the life and ones that she cared about. This is what initiated her path towards adventuring.

However, her journey of self improvement led her to realize there was a deeper history behind her ancestry that was shrouded in mystery. She learned that throughout the generations, each of her ancestors that came before her had found ways to surpass their predecessors, discovering more about their innate elemental gifts. As such, Loana found herself experimenting with elemental energies as a kineticist, until she unfolded the art of Elemental Ki.

Elemental Ki was the fusion of supernatural ki with a kineticist's innate elemental gifts merged into one power. Utilizing this, she ventured into uncharted territory to test its capabilities. Upon realizing its potency, she believed that teaching this art to others could be beneficial to the world. As such, she not only serves as an adventurer, but she wishes to become a grandmaster so that she can guide others, while sharing these mystical techniques she continues to develop to this day.

### **POST-SIABRAE WAR**

As the Athawin Shallows have returned to relative peace, new techniques and knowledge from Starshine City would be shared from the native Drow to the surface denizens and residents of the city, in order to secure the region from future assaults. Druids, Shifters, Kineticists and Elementalists alike have gathered to discuss methods to prevent another major threat from escalating out of control, should it happen again.

The result was the creation of the Symbiotic Predator. Martial artists who have bonded with the native plant spirits of the Starshine Wilds beneath Athawin that would bolster their capabilities to newfound heights. They serve as enforcers to protect the peace, and should a major threat rise again, the Symbiotic Predators will be ready to answer the call to bring nature’s justice.

With Loana being a native of Athawin herself, she has opted to pursue the path. For quite some time she was absent from the world's affairs, due to bonding with the nature spirits of Starshine Wilds. It was here that she would piece together the rest of her ancestry, and would finally re-emerge as a Symbiotic Predator herself.

## Personality

Loana tends to be a calm minded, gentle spirit. She is very easy to approach, and is graceful in actions of both body and mind. She is humble, empathic, and thanks to her upbringing in Athawin Shallows, she holds little to no racism towards the more questionable races (Drow, Dwarves, etc). To her, she has a much clearer goal in mind, and as such, she has little time for petty squabbling. However, like many elves, Loana worships Calistria as her primary deity. She is not fond towards slavers and tyrants, and may even seem vengeful against such folk, similarly to Calistria's dogma.
