Lene: Yearning Dancer

A dancer and descendant of the high priest Bragi. She understands how the world works, but she doesn't let it get her down. Lene is the daughter of Silvia and the older sister of Coirpre. Sometime after the Battle of Belhalla, Lene and Coirpre were abandoned by Silvia at an orphanage in Dahna. Fifteen years later, Lene is working as a dancer in Dahna, where she meets and gets close to Ares. When Ares departs to fight for Javarro, Lene and Ares have a discussion, as she disapproves of Ares wanting to go to war and finds his grudge against Sigurd's descendant foolish. When Ares is far away, she refuses to become Bramsel's personal dancer, and she is thrown into the dungeon of Dahna's Castle. It is believed that she may have been further abused by him, but it's not fully clear. The castle in which she is held as a prisoner is eventually seized by the rebels, and she is freed from her cage by Seliph, or a member of his army. She later meets Ares again when he is subjected under the army of Seliph, and he asks if she is ok, she answers negatively but is relieved to see him alive and well. Later, Lene introduces herself to Seliph and is surprised when he flushes and acts flustered on her presence. She discovers that he never saw a dancer before, and she finds his awkwardness lovely. Lene later meets Coirpre for the first time in her life, although neither of them recognize each other. Coirpre reveals that he didn't think highly of dancers until he met Lene. Lene has a cheerful exterior but hides a more vulnerable and emotional side of herself deep within herself. This is attributed to the difficulties that she suffered after being abandoned by her mother. She wishes to find Silvia and became a self-taught dancer for that reason. Lene also has a very realistic world-view, as she is aware that certain things must be done in order to survive, even if a person doesn't like it. This causes her to be quite bitter about the world itself, though she hasn't lost her heart completely. Her profession is also shown the be the target of prejudice, as many people seem to objectify or overall look down to dancers.

Appearance

Lene has light, fair skin. Her hair is a vivid green, gathered into a high, voluminous ponytail tied with a large pink bow that has frilled white lace at its edges. Several loose strands frame the sides of her head, and the ponytail itself flares outward in a lively, sweeping shape. Her eyes are bright green, matching her hair. She wears a revealing dancer’s outfit in soft shades of pink. The top is a small, halter-style piece decorated with golden trim and ornamented with a central gem at the chest. Around her neck sits a thin necklace strung with multiple gold pieces and a pink gemstone centerpiece. Flowing from her arms are long, sheer red and deep-crimson sleeves, detached from her main outfit and adorned with gold rings, tassels, and dangling charms that sway along their length. Her midriff is bare, leading to a pink skirt made of layered, translucent fabric that parts at the sides. Gold embroidery decorates the edges of the fabric, with delicate dangling ornaments lining the hem. A dark green garter wraps around her upper thigh, set with a teal jewel and additional small gold accents. Her legs are mostly exposed except for intricate gold-strapped sandals that wind up toward her calves, finished with small decorative charms. Gold bands and bracelets circle her wrists, upper arms, and ankles, each detailed with tiny hanging pieces that match the rest of her ornate attire. Lene uses a sword. It is called Safeguard.

Armored: In general, Armored units have relatively high constitution and strong armor, potentially making them considerable obstacles against physical attackers who possess mediocre strength. Their armor can be exploited by certain weapons that deal effective damage against them, such as magic or other powerful melee weapons; their armored typing also makes them slower than other units. Cavalry: Fast units that attack while on horseback. They are very fast an can cover a lot of distance. Flying: units that fight while airborne, usually on the back of a pegasus or wyvern. They can fly over most obstacles. Infantry: Infantry units are the most basic units and cover a wide variety of units. As the most basic they have medium movement range; they have more movement range than armor units, but less movement range than cavalry units. Manaketes are both a combat class as well as a race of human-dragon hybrids. Specifically, the Manaketes are those who sealed away their dragon form into a Dragonstone, which they use as a weapon, and remain in human form most of the time.
