Talindra Auroran

Talindra is the Mayor of Dath Coraar. She is beloved by her people and has proven herself to be a capable fighter, thanks to the sword of her ancestor.

## History

Talindra was born to the previous mayors of Dath Coraar, Taenya & Ruvyn Auroran. Her parents died when she was around 50 years old- seeing as she always helped her parents and they were beloved leaders, the people of Dath Coraar asked her to take over the position. It took some convincing, but she agreed to lead the people, as long as they hold her accountable for her actions.

When the Spellrot hit, she was quick to react. Designating quarantine zones and helping those who were infected together with Alto Seversword. She did as much as she could, which would prove to not be enough. Many people died in the Rot and even though she helped most people, she could not save everyone, which lead her towards a downward spiral. The thing that broke her out of her Spiral, was Father Gerons betrayal. After he set fire to the village, killing multiple people, she realised she could not just stand by and watch. She banished the Father and his followers of The Cleansing Flame and build a wall, together with the help of her people.

The wall was not meant to keep people out, but protect those within it's boundaries. She opened the gates to anyone willing to help rebuild the village and helped as many as she could. This was her way of trying to attone for not being able to save all of her people. She would question this decision sometimes, especially after the arrival of the Player Characters, which lead to some troubles, like the infiltration of Master Mia, a leader of the Thieves Guild. She got badly hurt through a trap set up by Mia, causing her to be in a coma for multiple weeks. In her absence, the Village Council was set up, due to the fact her next in command would be Father Geron, who the people still did not trust again.

## Abilities

### Leadership

Talindra is a natural leader, high in charisma and willpower. She is not afraid of doing what's right for her people, though sometimes she questions what is truly right. Together with her high sense of justice, she rules Dath Coraar with kindness, bravery and honesty. She's strict, but not unjust, and her people trust and believe in her. It is important to note that she is not afraid of admitting mistakes she's made, even going as far as pardoning Father Geron and his followers, and Violet Till, after deciding on their punishment.

### Fighting

Thanks to the sword of her Ancestor, Talindra has gained his abilities in combat. She's a skilled swordswoman, capable of holding her ground against Buddy Palsdaughter, though in the end Buddy would prove herself and defeat Talindra in their spar. She combines her fighting abilities, with those of her leadership, giving her people courage for fights and joining in on the front lines, even if others would prefer her to stay at the back.

## Items

### Sword of Auroran the First

Talindra wields the sword of her ancestor. Upon calling on his abilities, she gained him as a spiritual companion. He helps her train and guides her with his experience and wisdom. The sword itself is a powerful magical artifact, even allowing the spirit of Auroran the First to wield it and have it dance through the air. Furthermore, it seems that Auroran the First can take over Talindra's body, if she ever threatens to pass out. Through calling upon his power, she can summon a spectral armor that protects her from damage.
