The Seekers

The Seekers 

The greatest adventuring group of Aeriador in the Second Age. The primary members of the group are Ithryn Emrais, Aerena Nightstar, Idhassi Silvertongue, Turin Turandal, and Iraborn Alathilis, also known as Skarsen. There are other secondary members that have aided the group at various times including, Atoir the Wizard, Mira Alathilis and her twin sister Melina Alathilis. Allies of the group include the Hierophants of the Cabal; Aeredhel, High Princess of the Tel'Lasien elves; Elenyë Neylis, also known as Tyrea, of the Fochlucan College of Bards; the Druids of Annun; the Rangers of the North; Sophie Seasilver; Syvis Silvermoon, and many others.

No greater allies exist to the group than the Six, the Creators and Guardians of Aeriador, and those of the Six that have provided the greatest effort in aid are Zemira, Queen of Light, Celeborn the Stalwart, and Finduilen, Lord of the Seas. 

The Seekers are responsible for ending the threat of Lamashtu who intended to destroy the gods of Aeriador and plunge the world into darkness and remake it as a home to her monsters. It was only through the foresight of Aerendyl who placed a spark of power designed to slay a god  in his daughter Aerena that she was able to overcome Lamashtu and utterly destroy her.

Aerena Nightstar

Aerena Nightstar is the central figure and a leader within the Seekers. She is the daughter of no less than two of the Aratar, the Greater Gods of Aeriador; Aerendyl Nightstar and Amara Nightwater. Given a spark of power from her father Aerendyl, she used her power to defeat in combat the Mother of Monsters, the Goddess Lamashtu. Aerena is a powerful Magus and Psion, arguably the greatest mind in all of Aeriador.  She is an exceptional combatant with blade, spell, and psionics. She is also an academic of high repute in Dol Amroth and her knowledge spans virtually all areas and topics. A Tel'Celien (Silver Elf) by race, she is tall (5'10") and, like her mother is exceptionally beautiful with few equals, and she is counted among the most beautiful of the children of elves or men. She has dark hair with dark green overtones, violet eyes and fair skin. 

Ithryn Emrais

Ithryn is one of the central figures and leaders within the Seekers. He is the son of Caldorin Ambrose and Elwing Elutar and his lineage marks him as one of the greatest elves of Aeriador in the Second Age. From both noble and royal houses of the elves and men does he descend, and he is directly descended from Eärmin of the Third Celestial Bloodline, the third of the three great bloodlines descended from the Taurethar in Aeriador. He is the among the wisest and strongest of both elves and men in all of Aeriador. Ithryn is the Great Druid of the North and a Ranger of great renown, and he is counted as one of the greatest and most valiant warriors of the Second Age. Ithryn is Tel'Danien (half-elven) Fey'ri (of celestial descent). He is tall, standing 6'8", a Lord among Elves, and in him is the bearing and likeness of the great Princes of the First Age. He has dark hair, emerald green eyes, and the fair skin of his elven kin.

Iraborn Alathilis

The Lord Iraborn is the Celestial Son and third born of two of the greatest of the Taurethar, Zemira, Goddess of Light and High Queen of the Taurethar, and Celeborn, God of Justice and Strength. Iraborn is the strongest and greatest in might of the Lesser Taurethar, the Celestials, and only Celeborn and Finduilen exceed him in strength. Iraborn is a mighty magus, a combatant of both spell and blade, and he wields the two-handed blade Azurewrath. Iraborn is tall, standing 6'5", and has the countenance of the Lords of the Tel'Laurien (Gold Elves) of ages past. His hair is golden blonde and his golden eyes burn with the fire of Zemira. As Chief and mightiest of the Lesser Taurethar, Iraborn is their Herald and Banner Bearer.

Turin Turandal

Turin is the son of Hathol of House Belor and Zimraphel of House Marach of the Danemar. He was dedicated to the service of Tyr on his birth and later became the Chosen of Tyr. Turin is the mightiest and most valiant of the Paladins of Gondolin and the strongest of those knights. He is a Knight of Dane, an elite knighthood of the Danemar, and is the founder and leader of the Knights of the Golden Flower. Upon the death of Tyr during the Scourge of Lamashtu, the Knights of Dane and the Church of Tyr became the Church of Celeborn, and the Knights of Dane now revere the Aratar Celeborn and Zemira. The Knights of the Golden Flower were created by Turin in honor of those two Aratar. A Captain of Gondolin, he is the youngest Knight to achieve that rank, and the House of his father has been greatly elevated from it. Turin was among those who slew the goddess Lamashtu before she enslaved the world of Aeriador, and because of his strength and accomplishments, he has been granted the title of Grand Duke of Gondolin and land given to his family. Turin is tall, standing 6'6" and near-herculean in physique. He has the blonde hair notable among the Danemar and crystal blue eyes. 

Idhassi Silvertongue

Idhassi is the catfolk thief of the Seekers. Mysterious and deadly, she is an expert assassin and unparalleled thief. She is as famous for her deadly use of her twin daggers as she is for her love of sausage. She is the author of the Book of Proverbs and Wisdom of Idhassi and her love of sausages is only exceeded by her love of gold, trinkets, and artifacts. She is, without question, the greatest thief in all of Aeriador. Her wealth is unknown, but some rumors suggest that it is as vast as a kingdom. Idhassi is now starting the pre-eminent thieves guild in Dol Amroth called the Cat's Claw. Idhassi is of average height, standing 5'4" tall with chestnut brown hair and hazel eyes. She is remarkably attractive and perhaps the most lithe being in Aeriador.
