==General History== | |||
Slyphian 19th, 111 MA - Solaria is advised by Freya, the only mother she had know, that she was adopted by Bragon and herself. Her real mother died when Solaria was around the age of 3, to an illness that could not be cured and had plagued her mother since Solaria's birth. This was after the destruction of the priests, to explain to Solaria that her mother had hoped she'd bring back the glory days of the Priests. Obviously, this did not happen. But it added to the fury Solaria had towards Sahmie and Rahn for the destruction of the only tie she had to her mother. She knew that Lord Lanos brought this truth to her. | |||
Midsummer 5th, 122 MA - Solaria has by now calmed her life down some, settled down into marriage with Resiak and has a son named Alexander. She had dated several men and lived a lot of rebellious years up until this point. She receives a letter, from her birth father, advising her to come soon as he is dying. Her father moved to Ulangi years ago with her birth mother, and he had remained there after her death. Solaria left Alexander with Yilien, a protector from Arion, and took the first boat over. She had to remain there for two years. Once she returned, however, Resiak divorced her and explained that Alexander had died while she was gone. Grief stricken, Solaria abandoned Lord Arion - blaming Him for not protecting her son. She rushed into Ashtan and started her path of destruction once again. | |||
After her move to Ashtan, she dated several men that meant the world to her. First, Adia - a husband that adopted her first child with and fell into slumber. This left her even more heartbroken than before, but Lleis found her and tried to bring her hope. This brought some happiness to her, but Murad completed that happiness. Unfortunately, Lleis hated this man - told Solaria to either choose Her or choose Murad. Solaria chose Murad, being branded personally by Lleis with a tattoo that would always burn as a reminder of what she gave up. Once Murad finally had Solaria to himself, she mattered no more and he gave her up. | |||
This being the last straw to Solaria, she went to see Utansi. He and Zahmekoses had long offered for her to join the blooded ranks if she chose. She took them up on their offer, was sired by Sura, and lived out several years serving the blood before her body collapsed and she went into a deep slumber for roughly thirty or more years. | |||
When she awoke, Resiak found her - disoriented and bloodthirty. He could not believe what she had become, hating her deeply for it. He forced her into his house and made her his slave with no possible escape. Luckily, after a year of this torture, Ikne spotted her and managed to break her free. Her disdain for the living was only deepened by Resiak's actions. So, she found her bloodline house and joined it along with Bloodloch. | |||
She eventually became Mazhar and Overlord through many trials and troubles. She went insane because of Lleis, returning to the life to break the curse She had placed on Solaria. She returned back to the blood not long after, working hard as a servant for Dhaivol. Finally, after years of being a hermit beyond all the work she had done, she found Lord Damariel had Lanos' essence within Him. Knowing this was the calling she needed to break free of all that had now come to only bring pain to her, she was cured once again and moved to Enorian. She joined the Luminaries, and lived out many happy years there. She married Xon and had three children with him - Brayden, Alexandria, and Maia. She eventually followed Xon to Duiran to retire, but as life knows how she is - she eventually gave all that up to move to Spinesreach. She joined the Rout and battled between there and being in Duiran for many years. Spinesreach brought out the worst in her - causing her to do many things she increasingly regretted. The worst of all was killing her two youngest children on accident when they came to the city to gather intel. | |||
She has finally resigned to living in Duiran completely, becoming a Shaman. She does this to honor her fallen children, dedicating her life to the spirits and the balance of the cycle. | |||

This is the official discussion page for the entire wiki. Here, you can find out how to contribute to the wiki, or chip in on any wiki-related talk.
- Q: How do I create a new topic?
- A: Next to the "edit" tab at the top of the page is a '+' symbol. Click that to get a form that will let you fill out a new topic.
- Q: How do I respond to something?
- A: Click the "[edit]" on the right side of a topic's header. Once there, you may post a response by adding a new line beneath the line you wish to answer. Please indent your answer using a colon. Example:
Hi guys, this is a post on the community discussion page! {{User:Lin/sig}}
:Well ah do reckon it's a mighty fancy privilege, bein' able to talk to you an' all. ~~~~
- When you've posted something on here, please sign your post, so we know who you're talking about! The easiest way to sign your post is to simply type ~~~~, which will append your name to your post. You can also add a fancy signature in one of two ways; find out here.
Ways to Help
If you have free time and would like to help out, here's a list of things that can be done:
- Check the list of wanted articles. This is automatically generated when two or more pages contain links to a page that doesn't yet exist.
- Categorize articles. We have a list of existing categories and a list of uncategorized articles. To add an article to a category, click that page's edit link and at the bottom of the entry, type [[Category:Category Name]] (Where "Category Name" is the relevant approved, existing category) and click "Save Page". E-points if you mention what categories you added in the summary box.
- Expand on stubs. Stubs are articles that are far too short, and require more information. If you are feeling lazy, be sure to also mark short articles as stubs as well! You can do this by inserting {{Stub}} at the bottom of the article, above the categorization if applicable. Adding the Stub template will also automatically put that article in the Stub category. Note that creating just stubs (that is, a new page with maybe one line and {{Stub}} ) is not really any better than just leaving it blank.
- Expand on articles that were either copied from the game, or are poorly written.
- Add images to articles.
- Eliminate dead-end pages by adding links to other articles.
- Priority pages: Sidebar!
- The sidebar pages are the most visible and will probably be the first any new player will access. It is imperative that these contain useful articles.
Community Talk
ohai dere
This wiki seems to lack a generic community page on the sidebar, so I figured I would use this.
To the other people who Galleus is paying to help update the wiki: So, what do? What should we focus on first? I've been updating skill tables and the like, and I wanted to handle lore-related stuff, but unfortunately I'm largely ignorant of game events at large. I'd like to get any recommendations and insight from you. lin 
- And then it turned out there wasn't anyone else. Now to cope with my fear of abandonment. lin
- Where do I start? :D - Tahl
- Wherever you want! We have some pretty outdated skill pages, for instance, which people have been working on, and articles like Zsarachnor have like, a single sentence of information. Anything you want, really. lin
- Also, for signatures you're thinking of {{User|Tahl}}.
- Wherever you want! We have some pretty outdated skill pages, for instance, which people have been working on, and articles like Zsarachnor have like, a single sentence of information. Anything you want, really. lin
Where?
Where/From whom did you get that awesome logo! It's really cool! - Erion
- That's actually my artwork. Just wanted something flashy to put there for now, since I'm jelly of the other IRE wikis. lin
- I figured that 'cause you didn't credit it, it was yours, but wasn't sure. That's really awesome. Erion
Guild Pages
For the many instances in which the guild and class share a name, I've created a disambiguation page to differentiate between the two. It seems silly, but ideally we ought not be linking directly to the disambiguations themselves. Remember, you can create a more specific link by doing: [[Syssin (Guild)|Syssin]]. lin
Pimp yourself out
Don't forget you can make your own fancy, silly user pages! I'm working on a badge system, like they have at Ankyrean Archives, so we can be dorky and show everyone how cool we are. lin
Aha! I managed to make my own page. I feel so pleased right now I think I could burst! - Teani
Hello guys!
Hello to the new team! I don't have to feel so alooooooone! This page is a good place to discuss where to take the wiki, and other discussion, although naturally the in-game news board is good too. lin
New thing to look out for
I have made an important template, called "skill." You should use this to link to the pages of individual skills (because Aetolia's vocabulary is a little weird, a skill refers to the individual abilities in a skillset). The reason we use a template is so that (1) skills will stand out and provide easy reference for players wanting to find information on them, and (2) any change made to the template will apply itself to every skill link on the wiki, no matter how many.
Usage:
{{skill|Phase}}
{{skill|Crosscut}}

Background
Born as a Mhun in the lands on the Aalen to a small family, Solaria was raised a devout believer in hope and in the will to help others. Her father was a devout priest and began her training in the ways of the priest at an early age. She enjoyed every day of it and was happy.
Many years down the road, her father, Bragon, took the chance and was embraced by the most feared of priests, a consanguine. This caused her bond with him to break, but with the glory of hope, she hoped to cure him.
At the age of 18, she joined the priest guild to help seek a cure for the horrid embrace. She still seeks this every day by reading everything she can and asking what she can. She hopes to someday cure him and restore her bond with her father.
General History
Slyphian 19th, 111 MA - Solaria is advised by Freya, the only mother she had know, that she was adopted by Bragon and herself. Her real mother died when Solaria was around the age of 3, to an illness that could not be cured and had plagued her mother since Solaria's birth.

Midsummer 5th, 122 MA - Solaria has by now calmed her life down some, settled down into marriage with Resiak and has a son named Alexander. She had dated several men and lived a lot of rebellious years up until this point. She receives a letter, from her birth father, advising her to come soon as he is dying. Her father moved to Ulangi years ago with her birth mother, and he had remained there after her death. Solaria left Alexander with Yilien, a protector from Arion, and took the first boat over.
