lore wip

- a member of the Red Mage's Guild, and one of the only original members still left in the Forest
- after Serpent's Crossing finally gained a foothold in the forest against the spirits that roamed through it, she perfected a way to guard one's self against possession from them and from the souls of the dead (who for some reason also became trapped in the Forest, even after their deaths.) Unfortunately, this meant losing her ability to do magic, which was shocking and unwelcome at first. She knows now why it happened, and she's happy to perform the service for others who need it. She's done it for numerous Guardians and others who are menaced by spirits.
- since she can't do magic naturally anymore, she uses magical artifacts to produce the effects she needs
- one of the only dragons who has ever been inside the workshop under the town, and one of the few with whom Sky and his team have spoken candidly. She knows that they are responsible for so many dragons becoming trapped here, but it doesn't necessarily bother her. They're working on getting everyone back to where they came from, and can she honestly blame them for messing with things they shouldn't have been? She'd be a hypocrite if she did.
- absolutely fascinated by the arcane engine that brought everyone here. It's the most interesting thing she's seen in a long time, and she's spent a long time talking to Merlin and Morgana about it. She's also spoken with Sunny a lot about his and his mentor's work, and it kills her that she and Athanasius are from different dimensions and thus will probably never meet, because she would LOVE to pick his brain about summoning ghosts and trapping them in vessels.

- had a..."romance" of sorts with a strange vampire butler from her hometown before she was trapped here along with the rest of the guild. It was entirely one sided, as Dicendra didn't really have feelings of any kind, but she didn't mind. She enjoyed the thrill of it, given that Dicen could and would kill her at any time if she revealed that he was a vampire to anyone. If pressed, she would claim that she was merely interested in him as an undead creature outside of the realm of ghosts and other phantoms and nothing more, but she can't deny her fondness for him.
