Editing Campaign:SUNSHINE AND DECAY/jammy (section)

=== Background ===
West of the town of Thorns is an island, upon which the Dragon lines converge densely enough that it wasn't long before even mortals came to this place to feel the overwhelming aura that surrounded it. All the trees on the island leaned slightly towards one spot, their leaves developing odd circular patterns. The currents diverge and the fires flicker harder the closer they get to the one odd spot where the air feels thick and mystical. Soon an enlightened one came to the place and set up a small, humble temple, and all day he would meditate in it. Soon others flocked to the place to watch this godlike figure glow. Energy pulsed around him in waves that matched radiant camp fires shimmering around his small temple. People set up their own small shrines around his, eventually annexing their own little buildings onto his, and soon these offshoot temples began to coalesce into larger structures. All of this centered around one magnificently glowing man whose aura was said to light up the night sky like it were day time.

His following was immense, and people would sit around him in concentric circles just to feel the aura, the ebb and flow of the trees, the dance of the fire, the soothing song of the far off ocean, the pitter-patter of leaves sweeping along the ground in the cross wind, and they were at peace. Their mish-mash of shrines slowly bent itself into a functioning building. Their enlightened one meditating in the center of some sort of grand hall, the room always a brilliant ball of light. The building formed into a massive room with five long corridors around it, each representing a specific element. The light danced on the leaves of the trees and cast a gentle shimmer over the ocean, outshining any fire. And so, as their massive building grew more and more alive, so did the power of their enlightened one. One morning, those that came from sleep or meditation found their idol gone. Though his spot was empty and his light departed, they did not despair, for they knew that like him, they too must go out and spread the vigil of peace and enlightenment. And so they did; some stayed to maintain his temple and tried to reach a higher plane like their icon, but most went out to tell of his glory. Those that reached enlightenment like him were set as examples and put out into the real world with haste, to showcase what enlightenment and the way of life these people had carved out can do. Though the message these days is old and convoluted some people still hold to it, though even that devotion gets weaker by the generation.

Born within the fire branch of her pentagonal home, Radiant Shimmers of the Moonbeam, or Shim as her friends and family know her, is a good example of the type of child that the island would produce. She’s slightly short for her age and has long black hair that seems to braid itself from time to time. She’s a little spaced out and can get lost staring at things for hours, eventually coming to some very shallow and silly conclusion that seems almost mystical in the way that she says it. She’s generally very lax, cohesive and kind, if not a bit slow to act; she’s not forceful in what she does and seems to shy away from conflict. She’s of a very carefree attitude that can almost seem harshly indifferent at times. However when provoked she’s quick to snap and rather abrasive, until she’s melted back to her calm and cute demeanor.

Upon her exaltation she was sent out into the world and word was passed around that an immaculate from a small island was heading inland. Her hype preceded her, to some extent, and her services were quickly snapped up by The Guild; she found herself contracted to them, and her story begins here.
