Inherited a soft glowing aura from her mother, though it is silver in sheen and hardly visible during the day.

Detailed Description
The eyes seem to deceive themselves when looking at Taivas. Her height is fairly average, but she appears large yet thin. Her bones give away distant draft lineage and stocky pony blood, but the flesh attached is far from a toned worker. If she had been raised as a machine of war, perhaps she would have rivaled a stallion in musculature. Due to her passive nature, she almost appears dainty and lithe, were it not for her short limbs. Instead, she is somewhere between, like an unfinished statue that was carved with intricacy but never polished.
The majority of her pelt is a pure white, mimicking, in many ways, the coloration of her mother. Around her face, chest, and flank, patches of a dull grey form, charring at the edges. These small glimpses reveal the other half of her lineage, one married with the night. Atop her back, large wings of white rise like masts of a ship, but turn grey and darken toward the edges. At night, her whole body appears to shimmer and glow with a cold silver light.
The depths of her eyes are like the ocean under a full moon. They are deep, glossy black that reflects much of the world around her. Embedded in their depths, bright blue shimmering flecks appear to break the darkness. One might call her quite literally starry-eyed.
Her mane starts a bright flaxen gold, breaking to a pristine ivory at the base of her neck. In the strands of her mane are braided several glass beads of various colors. The blue and red beads were inherited from her mother, supposedly created in the kingdom of Isilme long ago. A green bead symbolizes her initiation as a shaman in her former home, a healer of her kin. A turquoise bead was given to her upon learning to fly, a symbol of the heavens above the fields. When she had reached adulthood, she was given the final silver bead from her father; it was meant to symbolize her teachings as a starsinger before the raids had descended.

Brief Description
Pragmatic
Reserved
Gentle
Serene

Taivas rarely speaks without being addressed and rarely still does she share her feelings. She embodies a tranquil lake, outwardly calm even in the face of chaos. Because of this, she can be seen as aloof and detached, leading to her struggling with friendships. She is a flower on the ledge of a high mountain; one to be watched and admired, but a lonely flower all the same. The girl is kind and gentle, having been raised from birth as a healing spirit.

I was born under the dying light of the sun and a blanket of stars.

Mother always hated the night, though she never told me why. Father sang ballads to the moon and stars, making them seem to dance and sparkle. We were happy in the beginning. I expect most are.

I grew up listening to sky ballads and healing chants, basking in the glow of the sun during the day, feeling the wind's fingers rush through my mane. The tall grass held us safely and the sky watched over her children. These days passed slowly and sweetly, but all good things come to an end.

The raids started abruptly, with little warning. We, a peaceful tribe, could never resist the warriors which flooded our lands, pilfered our children, and forced our services to heal wounds of the unworthy. My father stopped singing, and my mother began to fear the day more than the night.

My options were limited to poor choices.
So, I left.

Sent on a mission by my mother to find her former home of Helovia, I flew west until something odd happened. I ended up here, in the Rift.

The earth mourned the life it lost, as the poison crept through the land.
