Fynnien of the Meilyr

Fynnien (pronounced /'fənɪɛn/; Elvish for "daughter of the spring"), better known to her friends as 'Fyn', is a young Elf from Tirannwn. Fyn comes from the Meilyr clan, one of the smallest of the Elf clans; they are known as intrepid explorers and pioneering dungeoneers, and famed for their knowledge of plant-lore and potion-making.

Fyn has many of the typical Elven physical traits: she is of surpassing beauty and agile build. She has blue eyes and golden-blonde hair. She tends to dress in naturalistic woodland-greens and earth-browns, and usually wears a freshly-picked flower in her hair in a sylvan Elvish style fashionable in and around Lletya.

As a young Elf during the Elven Civil War, before the regrowing of Prifddinas, Fynnien grew up among a band of Elven rebels in the forests of Tirannwn. When she was old enough, she became apprenticed to a leading Meilyr herblorist, although she never completed her training; she was drawn away from Tirannwn with some years of her apprenticeship still to go, and while she was away, her master was murdered in an Iorwerth raid.

Chapter 1

Fyn left her homeland of Isafdar for good when she was still in her middle adolescence in order to seek out Tylluan Hen, a creature of immense wisdom from the Crystal Plane who took the form of a great owl, as she believed him to be in danger. It transpired that he had been captured by a Zamorakian sect, and Fyn determined to rescue him, a search which led her all across Gielinor, even as far as Morytania. Unfortunately this gradually led her into a personal conflict with the then Lord Iorwerth, and also drew her into first an elopement with and later earned her the undying hatred of a powerful Elf magician named Mathonwy, who imprisoned her on a splinter-plane for fifty years - although only a matter of weeks had passed in Gielinor by the time she was rescued.

With the start of the new God Wars but before the return of Seren, Fynnien based herself at a house in Taverley in a bid to teach Humans the Serenist philosophy, believing this would help to bring peace; but this ambition was short-lived, cut short by the destruction of her home by her old Zamorakian foes.

Chapter 2

Fyn had made no secret of her support for the rebel side in the Elven Civil War against the Iorwerth Clan, and was delighted at the news of Prifddinas's rebuilding; but she did not remain there very long, growing restless and wishing to be off. She returned to Kandarin, plying her trade, and eventually joined the Elven colony of Hailawen near Camelot as a field medic potionist in their elite guard. The job still permits her to travel widely, with the excuse of needing to collect rare supplies for her potions from far afield.
