Kelryn is a water genasi, descended from both human and elemental water ancestry. Her aquatic heritage manifests in her ability to breathe underwater and her resistance to cold damage.
Kelryn is a paladin, sworn to uphold the virtues of honor, courage, and protection. She wields a magical trident in battle, channeling the power of her water genasi lineage.
Kelryn Knightmane cuts an striking figure, with deep blue skin reminiscent of the ocean depths and long, flowing hair the color of seafoam. Her eyes are a piercing aquamarine, and small fins protrude from her arms and the backs of her calves, evidence of her aquatic heritage. Despite her exotic appearance, Kelryn carries herself with the poise and nobility of a knight, her movements graceful yet purposeful.
Beneath her courteous demeanor lies a fierce determination and unwavering sense of justice. Kelryn is a passionate defender of the downtrodden, ever vigilant against the forces of evil and oppression. Her trident, a relic passed down through generations of her lineage, crackles with elemental power when she calls upon it in battle. Though Kelryn prefers to resolve conflicts through diplomacy when possible, she is a formidable warrior when diplomacy fails, her mastery of martial combat complemented by her ability to summon forth torrents of water to sweep away her foes.
The coastal kingdom of Alaundria had long been protected by an elite order of paladins known as the Waveguard Knights. Sworn to defend the realm from threats on land and at sea, these noble warriors drew their power from the very tides themselves. Among their ranks was Sir Aralan Knightmane, a venerated knight whose bravery and devotion were unmatched.
It was on one ill-fated patrol that Sir Aralan's life took an unexpected turn. His ship was set upon by a mighty kelpie - a fabled shape-shifting water spirit. Though his crew was no match for the kelpie's magic, Aralan fought valiantly, his enchanted trident clashing against the creature's powerful jaws. Just when all seemed lost, a miraculous intervention occurred - a shimmering kirin, an eastern spirit guide, appeared and aided Aralan, its horn piercing the kelpie's hide.
In those final moments before the kelpie retreated, Aralan locked eyes with the noble kirin. An inexplicable energy passed between them, altering his very essence. He emerged from the battle unscathed but forever changed, his blood intermingling with the primordial waters. Thus was the first water genasi of the Knightmane line born.
Aralan returned a hero but also an outsider, his newfound aquatic abilities and striking appearance setting him apart. He persevered through the difficulties, raising a family and passing on his Waveguard teachings and treasured trident to his only daughter, Kelryn.
From a young age, Kelryn was regaled with tales of her father's fabled encounter and embraced her dual human and water genasi heritage. She excelled in her paladin training, quickly mastering not only martial combat but the power to control the tides. Her determination and courage were unparalleled, as was her dedication to the Waveguard's virtues.
Now a full-fledged knight herself, Kelryn proudly carries on her family's noble legacy, her enchanted trident at the ready to defend the innocent and battle any evil that threatens the seas and shores. With the spirit of the kirin imbued within her, Kelryn is a force as resilient and unyielding as the tides themselves.
