So friendly, so kind, so affectionate- Yet always in the same way one would treat a child, or a pet.

The Lampengräfin views every creature weaker than her as "cute" - and she is so confident in her own power that this includes nearly everyone.

She adores keeping pets, and takes rather good care of them. Her protéges, the vaguely antropomorphic woodland animals inhabiting her domain, adore her for their good treatment.

Every now and then, the Lampengräfin wishes to visit a different sphere and find a new adorable pet to play with- until she grows bored of it again, that is

One day, the pet she collected was a young forest gnome wishing to learn magic- A wish the Lampengräfin promised to fulfill.

She taught her new protégé many things, even considered setting up a warlock contract-

As a child, dreamed to learn magic-

So when she met a mysterious stranger in the woods promising to teach her, of course the child was only too happy to take this marvelous opportunity, and follow the stranger to her shire.

Alune spent a wonderful time learning spells, before realising that she was about to be late to dinner- her birthday dinner! So despite her teacher's insistence that the day was not over yet, Alune went on her way back home.

Her family's den, however, were empty and abandonded. Alune's distress caught the attention of a group of a few patrolling Goblins, who informed her the den had already been abandonded for decades. Her family was gone. How much time had passed in her teacher's shire...?

The goblins were kind to take her in, teaching her many things; after a few months, however, Alune began to change. Antlers began growing on the back of her head... The goblins grew terrified. Horned Beasts were what drove them out of their former home, after all!

The leader of the wood elves came to realise that something about the child was off. She was touched by something that elves could innately feel in their ancestry. Alune had been influenced by the feywild.

Alune decided to lave them in peace, and came across wood elven rangers she begged for shelter. It was here that Alune would begin her training to become a ranger as well.

As the leader knew that their little group were not prepared to properly train her in this direction, she decided to contact an old friend and send the child to the prestigious Academy Town of Demia, where Alune would be able to continue her developing.
