Harai Anrar

**Harai Anrar**(eventually known as Harai Lynd) was an Angel belonging to the Angel Imperium and eventually the Angels of Allium.

## Biography

### Birth

Harai Anrar was one of two born to Aiphos and Anya Anrar(although it would eventually be revealed that Aiphos was not the mother) on the Angel city of Asthiel. Her twin sister was Lydia Anrar. At this point in time, both were favored equally and home life was excellent.

### Training

Harai and Lydia were raised as every Angel was at the time. Imperium history, warrior codes, and general combat training. Lydia excelled in this, but Harai fell behind and was punished for it. This continued as they aged, with the skill gap between the twins growing larger and larger. This culminated in the Wilderness Trials(both were 16), a series of escalating challenges every up and coming Angel warrior performs.

### The Wilderness Trials

Unbeknown to the twins, Aiphos told the Angel's involved in the Trials that the duo were traitors, invoking an overly hostile reaction during the final event. During this event, Lydia revealed her then unknown Arcane ability, completely defeating the twenty or so Angels involved with remarkable ease. Following Aiphos' re-involvement, the duo were saved and formerly welcomed into the Warrior caste, were Aiphos taking particular interest in Lydia's newfound strength.

### Crown Guard

With Lydia's insistence, the twins were formerly inducted into the Crown Guard, an organization dedicated to the protection of the Queen. After around a year of extra training, Aiphos decided that the two would the personal enforcers of her will. They quickly become renown for their absolute loyalty to the Queen and remarkable apathy towards those deemed insolent.

### A Crack in the Façade

After twelve years as the Queen's Enforcers, the two faced a great challenge. An Angel-led protest against the treatment of the Avelis of Ayliford. Queen Aiphos decided to confront the protest in person, but an assassination attempt by the Stolen Light caused the queen to free and the Enforcers to quell the chaos. Harai confronted the leader of the protest(and, unbeknown to her, the leader of the Stolen Light) Amadeus Asrn. Amadeus revealed her deception and attempted to lure Harai to her side with the 'truth'. Before she could make a decision(she was tempted), Lydia interfered and killed the traitor.

### Another Crack

Aiphos, enraged by the attempt on her life, ordered the Aveli-majority city of Ayliford be burnt to the ground. Anya talked her down, but she still ordered the town be partially razed. The two prepared, with Harai being more reluctant to do so. Lydia gave her some advice on killing people, and the two left with a Contingent of Angels. They arrived at Ayliford within a week, and the Razing of Ayliford began. Lydia took a small portion of the group to burn the southern areas, while Harai handled the north. Her distaste in the whole event led to her clashing with contingent Primerion Ares Naro. They fought over whether to kill a group fleeing the carnage, with Harai being soundly defeated by the single most skilled swordfighter in the Imperium. Before she could do any major damage, Lydia arrived and cooled tensions(by directly threatening Ares). Lydia chastised the both of them, then told them(and the accompanying contingent) that their duty was over.

### The Third Crack

Upon their return, and after Lydia debriefed the gathered(Queen Aiphos, Queen Consort Anya, a few Crown Guards), Aiphos asked Harai for her debrief(almost never asked). Harai lied about the events, and Aiphos brought out Ares(who was badly beaten to the point of barely being able to stand) and asked again. Harai told the truth, and was slapped for lying. Aiphos took her blade, cut the throat of Ares, and handed the blood stained blade back to Harai. As Ares died, Aiphos warned Harai of the consequences of lying. She then dismissed the twins.

### The Breaking Point

The two returned to their dorms, and Harai violently threw up. Lydia, enraged by the mistreatment of Harai, stormed back to the throne room with Harai on her heels. They found Anya being violently beat by Aiphos. They attempted to intervene, but were brought to their knees by Aiphos. She told them her reasoning and a dark truth. Aiphos was not their mother. After a argument ensued, Aiphos decided enough was enough. She drew her sword and beheaded Anya. She then ordered the twins be imprisoned. Shocked by the sudden death of their mama, they were imprisoned without resistance.

### Imprisonment

The twins spent four months in jail, before they decided to break out. In the process, both killed all who opposed them. Eventually, they made it to the edge of Asthiel. There, they were confronted by Aiphos and a majority of the Angel Army. Lydia sent off her twin before confronting her mother. Harai flew nonstop southeast, only stopping when she could fly no longer. She crashed on another floating city(Ayliford) before passing out of exhaustion. She was brought to safety by Ophelia Har.

## Personality and Traits

Harai was very empathetic and loyal to a T. This loyalty, however, dissolves when the person she pledges it to is an outright sociopathic monster. She was very for-the-people, making her quite approachable by both her foes and allies.

## Powers and Abilities

Unlike her sister, Harai was a competent swordfighter(compared to Lydia's great skill) and a barely capable Arcanist(compared to Lydia's record breaking Holy Magic). She did possess Holy Magic, allowing her to perform the usual abilities(Holy Sheathe in particular), but she could not perform any complex actions.

### Flight

Harai, being an Angel, has the ability to fly. She is quite adept at flying, and is able to fight in midair.

### Arcane

Harai's Arcane abilities, as previously mentioned, largely only involve Holy Sheathe and Holy Blast.

### Sword Fighting

Harai was decently competent at sword fighting.

## Equipment

Harai tended to wield the common armaments for an Imperium-era Angel. A Karakit and its accompanying Saradir made up her usual armament. As a Crown Guard, she at one point wielded a cermonial Ameryl Guardian Shield and a Meric Staff.
