Now, one perhaps is wondering who all the people are that seemed to
have come together rather unexpectedly before this elven audience. Frankly,
there are quiet a few out in that audience who wonder.
Well, here is a list of characters and just why they are here:
Ama'lis Silverheart - Used to call herself Frederigo D'Honaire,
back before the transformation from male human to female, blue haired fairy.
Had been on a quest to slay the Dragon of the Southern Caverns, but was
tricked by the Oracle of her world (a mysterious, powerful, mischievous
mage ) and was soon transformed into her current form. Initially less then
thrilled t be in a body that was something out of a storybook, the six
inch lass decided to at least see if she could draw upon her innate powers
and light the room. This was like throwing a match on gasoline and the
fey nature of all fairy kind flooded into her....and washed away all desire
to return to being a "hairy, crude man." She renamed herself Ama'lis Silverheart
in celebration of her transformation, and was looking forward to her new
life. The Oracle, however, had other, darker and humiliating plans for
her....and only the timely intervention of King Oberon, the leader of the
fairy race that Ama'lis now belong to......stopped it.
Oberon had been told by the highest officials in their religion that
this newest of fairies was, despite herself, not to stay within Oberon's
Court (the Seelie Court) for good reason. The most prominent being was
that she would not fit in having been converted at such a late date in
her life, being baptized in the name of a Being who'd name brought pain
to a fairy's ears, and other reasons not yet revealed. Basically, Ama'lis
just never could/would fit in (just too human) so Oberon followed the Prophetess'
Decree and ordered her to join another Court entirely (which turns out
to be Infinity Incorporated). Oberon magically teleported the befuddled
fairy lass away, and she ended up here, to meet the one person who'd help
her adjust and join her new Court.
Ia'adoire - Used to call herself Frederigo D'Honaire, back before
the transformation from male human to female, raven haired elfin beauty.
Had been on a quest to slay the Dragon of the Southern Caverns, but was
tricked by the Oracle of her world (a mysterious, powerful, mischievous
mage ) and was soon transformed into her current form. Initially, she'd
still been human (albeit a woman) when she'd chosen the skimpy Amazon costume
before meeting the transformed Astra Thessamer. The Oracle then whisked
them both away and plopped them down in front of an elfin audience to watch
from afar as the new elves (for that is what they were now) floundered
since they knew no lines of the play. Unanticipated, however, was the fact
that she and Astra, upon looking at each other in desperation....would
have their fey hearts cause them to fall permanently in love (and also
speed up their mental transformation from their old sex and race to their
new ones). Fred renamed herself Ia'adoire to reflect this new "self" and
celebrated within her heart the idea of forevermore being a partner to
her new found love.
Now, unknown to both Ia'adoire and her new elfin love was the fact that
they weren't like other elves of her world in as far as that she and her
love were Light Elves (something like a Germanic equivalent of the Seelie
Court on several other worlds). They would find there were several differences
between themselves and the rest of their new race....but the bottom line
was......they were now immortal.
Also, because of these differences, there wold be a change here in affairs
real soon.....
Lueoth - Used to be a red haired Amazonian warrior princess of
Aqaularia. Had also been on a quest to slay the Dragon (the Dragon of the
Northern Caverns by Aqualarian maps), when captured hours earlier and transformed
into a tall, handsome red haired man. Soon met Fred and was in the process
of getting to know her when she and he were transformed into Light Elves
and plunked down in front of an elfin audience.
His eyes met hers, and he fell in love with her and what he'd become,
instantly and permanently. Took up the name Lueoth to celebrate the change.
Now, unknown to both Lueoth and his new elfin love was the fact that
they weren't like other elves of her world in as far as that he and his
love were Light Elves (something like a Germanic equivalent of the Seelie
Court on several other worlds). They would find there were several differences
between themselves and the rest of their new race....but the bottom line
was......they were now immortal.
Dragon Synizn - This is a version of the dragon mage with the
same name who hales from a world called Earth Prime (a very close
version of Terra Prime). Dragon Synizn had been described thusly:
He's an ex-lycanthropic dragon who used to change into a werebear
every time the moon was full. He's been pissed off ever since. On his off-time
he swears like a sailor, drinks like a fish and wonders why God created
in the first place.
That had pretty much been true (except he'd wondered why Tiamat, the
goddess of dragons, and not God had ever created humans in the first
place) up until recently.
See, his dislike of human beings stems from the fact that he had discovered,
despite his best efforts to hold the mental transformation away, how "human"
in thought and mind he'd become. Despite being able, through his meditations,
being able to hold back the murderous impulses that his lycanthropy had,
he'd changed. Despite being able to hold back the final degradation of
his Matrix into that of a human being to the point of no return, he'd changed.
That frightened him, and he reacted violently against such a truth by
attempting to become so much the dracnic ideal he.....really became a real
pain in the ass.
Also, in as far as drinking like a fish....that only happened that one
night of the "Name Game." When he awoke the next morning (after swearing
to Probe upon seeing a Vision of what a jerk he'd been....amongst the visions
of the future), he had a four alarm headache.
Before, while living a life as a monk, he'd longed to be able to let
lose and do a little sinning. He'd been indulging in drink afterwards when
cured of his curse, but this dreaded hangover....will....mean...he....will.....never.......DRINK..
....AGAIN!!
He also had sworn, on his Hoard, to change for the better....and thus
he'd begun the process. He wasn't the same when he awoke the next morning......
That aside, his glimpse into the future warned of the danger that Zular
(who was still within an ebony griffin) would be. Ways were thought of
how to free Trilling Blackfeather from Zular, but nothing could be found.
Until Dragon Synizn fell upon a desperate plan.....
Oh, simply put Dragon Synizn sacrificed his entire (that which
he didn't give Earth Prime's Probe) Hoard through an arcane ritual that
only he and the now departed Sato knew in exchange for the Angels/Agents/Rules
for saving Trilling. Since the Hoard of a Dragon IS their lifeforce, he
basically was sacrificing his life. He didn't tell the others that, for
he knew what kind of response THAT would get.
Basically.
On a side note, one last thing I about what Dragon Synzin of Earth
Prime did. When he made that sacrifice, putting his life at risk....there
had been a small chance that....according to the notes of Sato....that
the Rules and Agents would take pity on him and remake him into a Servant
(i.e. a Champion). With that in mind, Synizn was hoping....and received
that one small chance.
Thus, after being told basically he'd be sent to elsewhere to aid in
an important quest....headed by a flame haired woman called Astra Thessamer
of Terra Prime, the dragon mage suddenly found himself here.

And as for
the "team leader"?
