About her powers:
Yulandra was born with the unique trait of being connected to multiple tendrils of psionic energy connecting individuals of the omniverse. While this 'connection' does not in any way allow Yulandra to infiltrate, read, or even feel someone's mind [ and 'vice versa'], it does allow her to feed on a type of energy that leaks from it. Some call this energy glamour, the power of 'belief', theorized in some cultures to be the energy that allows for the creation and destruction of Changeling. It is the 'stuff' that dreams are made from, creativity. Some think it to arise from hope and faith, and is in constant war with the energy of banality or ''disbelief'. What it is exactly, is uncertain, but Yulandra has the innate ability to harvest it through intricate tendrils from multiple universes, giving her the amazing psionic potential to create, change, and destroy. She can mold the energy and use its potency to make her dreams and thoughts materialize, and alter and destroy existing things.
The power itself is overwhelming and Yulandra does not have the capability to severe the tendrils other than to kill herself. It conjures an eternal war between Yulandra's desire not to materialize unwanted thoughts such as malice or murder and the potency of the energy itself within a single vessel. In one such scenario, she lost a battle and gave up hope, leading to the destruction of her village or possibly the entire realm before she was imprisoned by powerful elves to a spiritual realm between life and death for 90 years. During this time, Yulandra's negative creative energy combined with the powerful malevolent spirits of the realm and created a fearsome beast that threatened to destroy the multiverse using the very tendrils of Yulandra's mind. With the help of her friends Jericho and Ther'rah, and forces beyond her, the beast was killed. But the war within Yulandra will forever continue.
~Personality~
Yulandra’s personality is much undefined. Some view her as very wise, others view her has extremely dense. While her body language often holds a seductive nature, her verbal actions indicate detachment. While she’s childish in a sense of carefree and dreamy behavior, she’s very mature in a sense of decisions. Yulandra also seems to hold a unfathomable sorrow within her. A lot of people are baffled by her personality.
~Character’s History~
Mistress Yulandra’s history is quite a mystery to even herself. While she remembers her life, she is so confused whether her past is an illusion or not that she refuses to accept it. 244 years ago, she was born within the elven lands of a realm undiscovered by most entities. By the time Yulandra was ten, she was already an outcast among her other elves—speaking in words and phrases they didn’t understand and going into trance like states in the middle of conversations. Yulandra had created her own world within her mind, a world that literally separated her from reality. Eventually it was discovered that Yulandra’s perspective on the world was so abstract that the elder elves suspected that she was connected to parallel worlds within the omniverse—connected to the threads of reality themselves.
As she grew, the day dreams started to materialize from her body and affect people around her. They would start to see and live within her illusions and fantasy worlds. By the time she was twenty, it started to get out of control—the entire village began to live within her fantasy, living her euphoria and sharing her nightmares—her first victims being the children of the villages who bullied and teased her. The children were caught within the illusion of pain, cast within the painful damnation of being burned, drowned, lacerated, or suffocated. It wasn’t until the wisest of the elder elves broke the illusion that the village returned to normal and Yulandra was forced into an incapacitated state. Keeping Yulandra sedated, the elders discussed what to do to with the young elf. Her unexplainable tie to the Omni-verse was threatening yet intriguing to the elders—they didn’t want to destroy her for a gift that could be helpful. The elder decided that Yulandra needed to build her psionic energy in order to control such an amazing bond with the tendrils of reality—thus they placed a seal upon her forehead. This seal would subdue her mind and not allow her to lose control immediately. It was meant to fragment the power and thus give Yulandra the chance to tame it. But to the elf...it felt like terrible imprisonment of who she was.
It took Yulandra 134yrs of harnessing this seal to develop enough psionic control to be able to stop the illusions from taking over on a frequent basis—the only thing that kept her so dedicated was the fear of being controlled by her own mind. But the poor elf was shunned by her village. They thought of her as a time bomb ready to explode, her episodes blackening their hearts and stealing any type of sympathy for the imprisoned woman. Yulandra's strange behavior only amplified their fear and hatred of her. Even after her training and massive build up of psionic power, her illusions made her completely dreamy and lack capability of social activity. Abstract, incoherent, and often in a trance, Yulandra often used her illusions to communicate with people. When she did speak, she spoke in riddles and rhymes, usually not understood by normal people.
As time passed, the whipping malice Yulandra felt against her back was too much to bear. The seal upon her stopped her negative thoughts from immediately sprouting, but they did not destroy them. The negative energy of over a century of hatred build inside of her, coiling up like a spring until her power was simply too great for the seal to hold anymore. Yulandra gave up hope, her strength and desire to protect the world sapped from her despair, and the energy broke the seal, overwhelming her and the village. Hate materialized, and endless blood spread as horrific creatures were weaved into reality and slaughtered the villages, sometime the energy even turning the people themselves into gruesome beasts of murderous melancholy. The darkness was spread for a few days before the Wise Ones of her elven culture brok the illusion with their combined power and sealed Yulandra once more.
This time her crime was unacceptable, she could have destroyed the world. The Wise Ones believed Yulandra could not help herself, but even they could not save her. It was decided that an ancient seal would be placed on her, one that would separate her mind and her body, but imprison them both. Her mind would be cast within isolation inside a realm called Wisp's Domain. The realm was a place for lost souls to roam, silently, and endlessly. Her body would remain in the slaughtered village, preserved and frozen in time forever. It was destined to remain this way until the time that someone would be able to break the powerful seal and release her once more. That person, in their minds, would be the one that could tame the beast within. 90yrs of darkness, sorrow, unthinkable occurrences, and rigid isolation passed. Yulandra was never freed, and eventually forgotten...
It was on the 91st year that Yulandra was finally able to open up the doors of one tendril, and extend her psionic reach into the world of Valucre.
There, she would dare to hope once more.
~Past Threads~
A Shy One
-Since reaching out from her imprisonment, Yulandra finds psionic array limited within the confines of the Altus Arcantium Grasslands. There she meets two warriors by the names of Laexan and Jericho. Desperate to ease her isolation, she travels with them into a pocket dimension within the grasslands and help Laexan find an item meant to save a woman he loved. Unknown to her though, Jericho would be one the one to change her life forever. After explaining, with a certain degree of vagueness, the details of her imprisonment, Jericho promises to free her.
Journey to the Unknown
- This is a thread that is very long and I cannot possibly describe all that happens.
-Yulandra takes Jericho into her realm, it is there that he goes through a long and strenuous journey to keep his promise to free her from her isolation. He encounters many things from dragons, sirens, shadows wolves, to soul eating creatures. It is when he stabs himself in the heart with a mystical weapon called the Wisp's Dagger and transported into Wisp's Domain, that he learns Yulandra's true purpose of desiring freedom. In her isolation, her sorrow and powerful energy gathered over the years, merged with vengeful spirits of the world and manifested a Beast of unbelievable vigor. The Beast desired to break the seal itself and use Yulandra's mind to spread havoc throughout the multi-verse. Jericho discovers the key to the seal, breaks it and frees Yulandra before the Beast can. But they had to face the Beast itself.
It is an overwhelming battle that asks too much of anyone. In the end, Yulandra calls upon forces beyond her control and utilizes her freed powers to wish death upon the Beast and for it to never return again. Draining all her hope and strength into her wish, desiring nothing more than to repent for the endless crimes of her life, her wish is granted...but not without the price of losing her own life. Yulandra dies, never knowing the true taste of freedom, and never being able to tell the man who risked everything to save her and the multi-verse how she had fallen in love with him.
But even in death her powers thrived. Clinging onto the desire for freedom, Yulandra's mind never passes on, and is left drifting in an endless void. It is the deity of her realm that saves her, granting her life once more under the promise and condition that she would never seek Jericho again.
