About
Zharissa and her twin sister Vallinra grew up together on an island nation south of the mainland; they were part of a seafaring race of elves who worshipped numerous gods of the sea. On their sixteenth birthdays, they both were accepted as acolytes at the temple of Dawntrace. Studious and proud she worked tirelessly to assure she would be recognized and promoted. But as days turned to weeks and years, Vallinra watched her peers from noble houses rise through the ranks, not on the merits of their skills, but by how much gold their affluent families flaunted. Disillusioned, Vallinra fled the temple in search of other paths. It was not long after she found a new calling with a secretive sect of devotes who worshiped the "true" master of the sea, the Tide Lord, the Master of the Deep Places. They were known as the Dark Tide.
And unlike the unworthy acolytes of Dawntrace, Vallinra soon found new power, not power begged in prayer, but power taken by sacrifice. Vallinra reveled in this new found power and took pleasure in luring her former acolyte brethren to bloody deaths, in service to her new master. With each drop of blood spilled, the Tide Lord bestowed more power and slowly began transforming her body and mind. These transformations would allow Vallinra to serve her master directly beneath the waves for eternity. A far better prospect than the lesser gods had offered.
