#sylvok

Rhoda has some really unique features because she's half-Auriok, half-Sylvok, while Neris is fully Sylvok. Rhoda never excelled in druidic magic, but Neris was something of a prodigy, and was studying under Benzir with the Temple of Might from an early age. When Benzir betrayed their village to the Vicious Swarm, Neris used her magic to make a distraction that allowed her sister and a few other Sylvok to escape, but she was left in Benzir's clutches. She was infected by Benzir and Glissa personally, and they would have started the process of compleation if an intruding Mirran rebel hadn't snuck in and tried to plant a spellbomb just then. She managed to escape, and was rescued by Ezuri's forces, who managed to slow the progress of her phyresis by providing her with some blinkmoth serum they managed to secure from some other refugees, in exchange for her using her magic to assist in their efforts. She nearly succumbed to Phyresis, delirious and weak, but was saved at nearly the last moment by her sister and Melira, who managed to cure her in time.
