Estrana was born under unique and confusing circumstances. Her people were fleeing through dimensions from a world on the verge of instability and maybe even destruction; her egg was infused with volatile ley energy, unnoticed by others it cracked open before its time and released a surge of power that teleported her to some unknown location.

Found as an infant by a noble witch family, Estrana was raised in a world apart from her place of origin. Renowned for potent potions and poisons, the family took in Estrana and raised her along with three other siblings. Unburdened by expectations of achievement set for her siblings, she revealed and found herself embracing the passion for the natural and being able to interact closely with the ley energy that she could feel but not comprehend.

Estrana had a natural gift for ley energy manipulation in enhancing plant growth, an ability important in helping the family with their botanical business. Unlike her brothers and sisters who only dedicated their time to a few plants, Estrana believed that every type of flora was important. Therefore, she had to spend all her time investigating all of them and mastering the technique for cross-pollination.

However, on her seventeenth birthday, tragedy struck when her elder sister was killed. This event led Estrana to take a more serious role in her family. Thrust into a new role, she delved deep into the study of supernatural creatures, unveiling dark family secrets and becoming proficient in the use of ancient combat arts passed down through Ard'done generations.

The ongoing war was a turning point for Estrana. When her family allied themselves with the losing side,  Estrana eagerly joined, wielding her ley-based magic with lethal precision.

 However, things fell apart when they were betrayed in a devastating turn of events. The witch queen was murdered along with her trusted followers, including many in Ard'done family.

In the aftermath, with her family's estate burning and her father succumbing to the Commander, he placed the family grimoire into Estrana's hands, urging her to run. Alone, with her heritage in question and the grimoire as her only family heirloom.

Before sending her away he told her that she was different, a fact that did not come as a surprise to her. The magic the witches had wielded and hers were not alike.  

Reading through the grimoire, Estra soon discovered that she was found as a baby dragon hatchling.  Her mother had done endless research and testing. None of which she remembered. 

Determined to embrace her draconic heritage, Estrana had to learn how to shapeshift. It took months but she learned to channel ley energy through her body. Or that was what her mother had called the blue energy she had always been able to see.

Her dragon form was that of a white and ivory-scaled dragon, with azured eyes and cyan-tipped horns, beautiful but clumsy.

She had decided to stay in the forest for the next ten years, living as a dragon and mastering her powers in isolation.  She ventured to the ley line where she was found in an attempt to get answers to the past.

As the world evolved around her, it became harder to stay hidden in the forests due to humans. She decided to once again rejoin the world in her humanoid form in hopes of finding her way to her real home.
