Name:
Sara Merothi

Age:
Like all elven folk, Sara appears to be eternally young and beautiful – appearing to be around her early twenties, despite the fact she has lived for many hundreds of years. 

Race:
Elven

Appearance:
Sara carries herself in such a way that she is always alert and light on her feet, which gives her a somewhat tense and cautious appearance. She is rarely seen without being wrapped within her hooded cloak, seeming almost to be one with the shadows she frequently skulks through. Her long midnight black hair glistens somewhat and serves to contrast her slightly pale complexion, showing that she is more familiar with the darkness and shadows than daylight. Like most elves her face could be considered somewhat small and narrow, her features being defined and somewhat petite. Her eyes are a dark piercing green and seem to be one of the few sources of colour that emanate from the woman, the green being as lush and deep as the trees of Mirkwood. She regularly has an overtired appearance, making it seem like a good night’s sleep would benefit her greatly, however this is just a by-product of her over exertion and the magic which flows through her. When coupled with the almost constant scowling expression she has she can appear quite unfriendly indeed.

Personality:
Sara has become somewhat of a loner over the last several years, having spent much time traveling without any companions and with only herself for company. She would be considered by most as quite a bizarre individual, speaking as she thinks without considering how odd things may seem to others. She has a passion for knowledge and learning, something which has driven her for almost her entire life and this shows in her personality. She shares information with others regardless of if they have asked or shown any interest, assuming that they would want to know. She feels that anyone who is uninterested in learning and acquiring more knowledge is most bizarre and there must be something wrong with them. 

Sara considers evil to be an extreme inconvenience, seeing how it destroys and corrupts all it comes into contact with, and generally will attempt to vanquish darkness where she encounters it. 

Aside from that Sara could be considered somewhat selfish or just generally uninterested, showing an interest in only things that she personally cares about. She has no desire to meet or make new ‘friends’ and generally can be rude or dismissive. 

That being said she is not opposed to the idea of companionship, and if she comes into contact with the right individuals then she can become much more friendly and open. 

Biography:
Sara has lived her for many years as a wonderer, traveling the lands as she sees fit. Originally she hales from Mirkwood, and has spent a great many years amongst the trees with her kin as a scholar. Though with the darkening of the woods she decided to travel the lands to find a solution to this problem, or at least this is what she has always maintained. In reality this was only part of the reason for her leaving, as also a deep restlessness filled her.

She has travelled the many different regions of middle-earth, but recently has been traveling in the far east. In her travels she has seen and experienced much, most noteworthy of all was her discovery of what she strongly believes to the final resting place of one of the five Istari, judging by the state of the remains and the various items that she discovered. All that remained of one of the fabled blue wizards were several bone fragments and scraps of ragged and stained cloth, but most important of all were the several shards of what she now assumes was once his staff. Sensing the strange and magical energy within these few shards Sara decided to take them and put them to use, fashioning the shards into a makeshift pendant which now never leaves her neck. 

From that moment onwards Sara has felt different, imbued with whatever strange magical energy that the Istari staff fragments channel into her. Her own magical skills have grown immensely, giving her much more than her natural elven abilities ever could, though she frequently feels unwell after the use of magic and almost constantly feels drained and tired despite how much rest she has gotten. 

With the rising of the Easterling King Oldur, Sara has finally travelled back to her home to defend it however she can. She knows all too well the power of the Easterlings, having witnessed many of their internal conflicts and methods of conquest. She knows that all of the races of middle-earth are under threat from this rampaging threat, and that the men of Dale, the elves of Mirkwood and the Dwarves of Erebor will be the first to face this deadly horde.
