Xanaphie Anamoria

Xanaphie Anamoria is a 115 year old Wood Elven Druid (Circle of Wildfire) and a member of the Hunter's Guild in Teneros.


 * Wood elf grew up in a wood elf village in the woods
 * Was a village tradition of druidry that was passed down unto her
 * Very much a “alright guys time to go to church” and then your whole town shows up to church because you’re all catcholic, except you’re not all catholic and you spend a lot of time sitting in circles praying for the trees or some shit
 * Was around 50 yo when she started to accompany the older elves on outings to big druid meetings with different circles
 * It was in these outings that she was exposed to a lot of the different ways of thinking when it came to druids, as well as the types of people outside her woodland community of wood elf druids.
 * Her village was probably a bunch of circle of the land druids or something
 * She particularly took an interest in the philosophy of the druids of the circle of wildfire and whilst most druids understand that life and death are both part of the same circle that all natural beings tend to succumb to. She appreciated these new druids in their willingness to put such a direct hand in the circle. Controlled death so that it might bring new life.
 * And so she began to hang around this kinda crowd as she got older. Tending to leave her village more and more to spend more time with other druids, though namely the wildfire ones.
 * Her parents were probably disappointed and lightly worried for her: “why couldn’t you just be a nice land druid like your father and i” “yeah, or one of those circle of dreams druids. I hear they’re awfully nice.”
 * Xanaphie however was full of spite and did not like that her parents were not as supportive of her decisions as they could have been. And so she went to the Wildfire druids to induct herself as one of their own.
 * The process involved bonding one’s soul to an elemental: A primal wildfire spirit.
 * And while this was something she had been considering for quite some time, it was a sort of thing that did not seem reversible.
 * And thus, at around 96, she became a druid of the circle of wildfire. It wasn’t until she was 100 that she truly left home for good, not because she wanted to distance herself from her family, but because she desired to see the way other people worship nature.
 * All the different philosophies and the different ways that people pay tribute to the world around them.
 * It was also a quest of other philosophies as well. To see the various types of people in the world and the ways they lived their lives, revering of nature or not.
 * This is why she adventures. It also is a good way to channel the ideology of ‘burning something to the ground, so that something better may take its place’
