Dathala Highmoon: Worshipper of Shadow
Dathala Highmoon (pronounced Da-THA-la) is a young practitioner and follower of Shadows. She is a proud student of the dark path and makes no attempts to hide her calling. She can most often be seen cloaked in the embrace of her Protectors, walking the world in Shadowform. A history of strewn with loss, confusion, abandonment and pain have lead her to embrace the path of Shadow and take great joy and pleasure in its rewards. Although she travels the world in search of power she can most commonly be found in Stormwind and its surrounding lands as well as the floating city of Dalaran.

Description
A feminine contour, slightly more than six feet in height, possessing long swept ears rests within swirling shadow. Robed and armed with an elegant quarterstaff and dagger she stands with arms tucked with her sleeves.

Upon closer inspection it is revealed that within the shadow is an uncharacteristically full figured Kaldorei woman whose form is draped in elegant robes of uncommon design. Sweeping long hair might either be worn beneath priestly hats or styled in whatever style suits her for the day. Her lips are painted the deep and rich color of the night sky while blemish-less skin carries a soft lavender hue marked only by the Darnassian symbol of the crane painted about her eyes.

Despite the robes, she is quite shapely, exquisitely proportioned, graced with an undeniable aesthetic beauty and symmetry to her features. Her voice strong yet feminine and when speaking Common, carries with it a thick Darnassian accent.

In her hands are clutched small prayer beads that dangle about her right wrist. She rubs them often, fingering the crescent moon symbol that dangles at its end. About her neck, she carries a brightly shimmering crystal in the shape of an triangle. Within its center is etched the Eye of Dalaran. Upon her hip rests a small bag that jingles as if filled with tiny baubles.

Personality
Dathala is young by Kaldorei standards, no more than a young adult teenager by human standards. This in combination with her dark powers and harsh, tumultuous past have combined to form a unsettling and often unpredictably violent personality akin to a calm before the storm. She is cunning, patient, confident and predatory. However despite these silent traits, she remains composed, calm, poised and elegant.

Whether striding about as a being of living shadow, hovering silently, suspended by darkness or dispersing her very essence into a sentient cloud dark energies to emerge bearing weapons and draped in robes she had not worn moments ago, Dathala has proven to exhibit a flair for the dramatic.

"They Who Protect Me" Dathala's Protectors
Hers was not always a path of darkness and only a handful of individuals know of the moment in her life that ultimately shattered her faith in Elune and set her on her dark path. However she looks upon that one night with great gladness. For without it she would have remained blinded by the light she so devoutly believed in and would have never heard the beckoning of the entities she has come to refer to as They Who Protect Me.

She has also been known to call them simply her Protectors as well. The truth of what They are is unknown to all but two individuals. What is know by all however is that Dathala is unfailingly devoted to them and the powers they grant and will do all she can to carry out their will along her path.

Disciple of Darkness . Bender of The Light
Although her will forever strength lay in the mastery of the gifts bestowed upon her by her Protectors, Dathala understands that the Light has many uses. She holds nothing but utter disdain for the Holy path and considers herself a 'bender' of the Light. One who through disciplined, rigorous, meditation, has learned to mold and form the Light to her will.
