Thea Elandon

Thea Elandon is a moon elf cleric of the goddess Selûne. She is accompanied in her travels by the half-orc Gell.

Background
Thea spent much of her youth in training as a cleric of Selûne, assisting her cousin Bethrynna. Her family spent time providing healing for the Harpers, and maintains their ties to several members and former members. While helping her cousin as she assisted Locke Farguard in clearing out orc raiding parties, Thea found an abandoned half-orc child, Gell. Once finished with her assignment, Thea took leave to raise Gell. For the last ten years the two have lived in seclusion, providing occasional healing services to travelers along the road. Now, with Gell having reached adulthood and Thea approaching her 100th birthday, it's time for her to rejoin the world.

Personality
Thea is practical and serious. She is still quite young by elf standards and works hard to be taken seriously, which may account for her lack of humor. Her life has been entirely devoted to protecting others, and she can occasionally be so focused on this goal that she disregards her own safety.

Thea is very protective of Gell, who she thinks of as family. Though she originally intended to part ways with the half-orc once he achieved maturity, she continues to travel with him and is secretly relieved that he has chosen to travel by her side as well.

Disappearance
Following an unpleasant encounter with residue from a Chaos Stone, Thea found herself psychically linked in some way to a malevolent otherworldly power. Shaken and looking for answers, she went with Gell to the local temple of Selûne. There, the two of them were ambushed by the Best Friends Gang, who managed to escape with Thea and deliver her to cultists of the demon Zixael. Zixael entranced Thea and installed her as its mouthpiece, hoping to more firmly entrench itself on the material plane. Thea's fellow adventurers fought to free her, but she disappeared along with Zixael when the demon's summoning orb was destroyed. It was later revealed to the heroes that the goddess Selûne intervened in Thea's fate, welcoming her to the celestial plane where she now rests at her patron's side.
