Ellyria Falthrien was born to Lorathien and Sylieria Falthrien 3783 years ago, the second and last child in the family. Growing up on Sunstrider Isle as the daughter of the famous scholar Lorathien, who founded Falthrien Academy, she was doted upon. However, Ellyria was a serious, mature child who took her studies seriously, quickly advancing through her levels at Falthrien Academy. At age 31, young for an elf, she married Berneolas Thornhand, a paladin trainee in Silvermoon City who Ellyria met during a trip into the capital.
