**Kaylin Neya** is the main character in the series. She is a female Human, working as one of the Hawks out of the City of Elantra. As of 'Cast in Sorrow', she is 21 years old. She was born in the fief of Nightshade and spent her formative years there until the age of 13 when she ran away to the fief of Barren. After 6 months, she came into the City of Elantra where she joined the Hawks serving under the Hawklorde and enforcing the laws of the Dragon Emperor who rules the City of Elantra.

## Biography

Kaylin (born Elianne) lived her early years in the fief of Nightshade with her mother. She met Severn Handred when she was five and he was ten. He saved her from a Feral. Not long afterwards, Kaylin's mother died and Severn began taking care of her.

When Kaylin was eight, she adopted Steffi into their "family," and later Jade.

At the age of ten, the marks of the Chosen began to appear on her arms and legs. Six months later, Kaylin performed her first healing.

Three years after the marks appeared, Severn sent Kaylin out for food. When she came back, she found Steffi and Jade dead with Severn covered in blood. Kaylin fled from Severn.

Six months later found her way to the Hawks, where they adopted her and made her their mascot.

During a child prositution ring bust, Kaylin lost control of her power. She disintegrated one member of the ring and melted the skin off three others.

## Personality

It has been commented on more than one occasion that Kaylin's academic scores are very poor. In her mind, if it isn't practical to her work as a Hawk, it isn't worth knowing. Languages are her only academic gift. She knows seven different langauges, but only speaks four passably. She is observant and street smart when she wants to be. She has a soft spot for children and is fiercely protective of them. Kaylin rarely arrives to work on time, and is often teased about it.
