Early Life
Born and raised in the bizarrely colorful lands of Fairy's Rest along her brother. Both insatiably curious, they felt trapped within the island and looked to travel the world they had been closed off from. Her father, Ivellios Nailo, is a calm and collected man whose adamant and reserved nature sometimes makes him seem cold; he is very traditional and obsessed with knowledge of his people — rumors amidst the common folk say his bloodline is deeply connected to the fragment Nimrodel, though there is no real proof of this. Her mother, Althaea Nailo, has a fiery spirit and charismatic nature, always looking for amusement, and shares her husband's thirst for knowledge though she's more interested in the workings of the world and its nature. Her brother, Zaarx Nailo, excelled in combat skills such as archery and swordsmanship, though his ability to connect with people was lackluster — Alxana and their parents were the only ones he could speak to properly. He is dead. Before leaving Fairy's Rest, Alxana spent years practicing her swordsmanship under her father; when she wasn't training she spent her time exploring the lands she lived in.
Inciting Incident
- What Happened: One day her brother went missing for a worrying amount of time. He'd usually go out to the forest and roam while Alxana trained with their father, but this day he didn't return.
