Early Life

Sivana is an indigo blood troll who lives in the big city within her manor-like hive, specially designed to be spacious and large since she greatly dislikes small, crampt spaces. When she was younger, Sivana would recall seeing plenty of other trolls from varying castes react to her or speak to her in a way that told her they were making a slew of assumptions about her, good and bad. She consulted some highblood mutuals online about this and they all told her it was normal behavior and that she just had to assert herself as the dominant blood caste over those lower than her on the hemospectrum. However, Sivana privately called this into question, finding issue with how everyone was placed into a cookie-cutter box that held every caste back. For instance, she knew others of her caste could deck a seadweller if they so desired, but chose not to because of some ancient rules. She began to resent all the people who made assumptions about her, disliking the system that made everyone boring and reptitive. Sivana chose to live a life that defied the expectations of her caste by picking up meditation and therapeutic exercises that would allow her to keep her volatile highblood emotions in control. It wasn't a smart idea, nor was it one that would grant her any favors as an adult later on, but it was one she felt like leading to make an example out of how flawed Alternia's system was motivated purely out of spite and resentment.

Reunion

Shortly after Sivana became moirails with a cerulean troll named Ophela, she was confronted by four trolls, two of whom she used to auspisticze for to keep their kismesitude stable, and two who were their former matesrpties. They claimed that she had "forgotten" them and left them to ruin their relationships with the other quadrantmates. However, Sivana hadn’t forgotten about them, she just left them because after a few sweeps of being in the ashen quadrant with them, they seemed to consistently no longer require her help so she left, feeling unwanted. Sivana exaplined this to them, but the the four were too fed up with rage to listen, bringing out Ophela, who they had captured to attract Sivana to their location to teach her a lesson for leaving them. After some furious back and forth, the four trolls prepared to beat up Ophela, but were stopped when Sivana dropped her cool and attacked all four of them to protect Ophela. She culled the two former matesprites in her fury and barely kept the other two alive after taking pity on them the trolls she once cared deeply for. Sivana was horrified and ashamed for what she had done and left them all. Since then, Sivana has been much more paranoid of lashing out against others and has doubled down on her anger-management exercises. She keeps this fear secret from all but her moirail, trying to pretend the encounter didn’t happen.

Land of Gylphs and Mazes

Sivana’s land is the Land of Gylphs and Mazes (LoGaM). During the day, LoGaM is bright, hot, and harsh, something very familiar to Sivana. All the brown watersnake consorts, who are active at night to avoid the harsh day, live in sparse, rustic trading towns scattered across the desertous land that exists between the large, stone walls of the planet's maze. These walls rise up hundreds of feet into the blue sky and are engraved from top to bottom with various patterns, pictures, gylphs, and ancient writings that none of the consorts can translate. The ground inside and outside the maze that isn't covered in sand is dried-up, with almost no water to be seen anywhere. Despite how extreme and harsh this planet's living conditions sound, it's actually rumored that a long time ago, this planet used to be a wonderful oasis-like planet brimming with water and life, but that it lost that energy long ago. As the witch of mind in her sgrub session, it is Sivana's mission to use her abilities to decipher the old language, outsmart the shifting maze, and reach the center to reclaim the lost energy to save the decaying planet.
