Appearance and Personality
Celienna is a tall, slender, female Night Elf with glowing silver eyes and long silver hair. She is exotic in her features and considered attractive, even fo a Night Elf. Her movements are graceful and often serpentine. She is causal around aquiantances and friends, honorable around those of respect, and diligent around enemies. Se veiws leaders only with the respect that they deserve. She has a light-hearted sense of humor and can oftn have a quick tongue. But more often than not, she keeps her fstrations to herself, sharing them only with Clovis or a select few others. Celienna is never far from her faithful pet, Clovis, a male Moonsaber, that bonded with her shortly after coming to Azeroth.

Biography
In Draeneic,"Celienna" is said to mean "Daughter of the Moon" or "Goddess of the Moon." When Celienna was born to her parents in Telaar, in Nagrand a rare eclipse occurred, some saying that her birth was prophetic and that she would go on to serve as a important individual to her people. Her parents, named her Celienna A' Orinia. While on Draenor, Celienna had a chance to learn of some shamanistic ways before moving on to study in Shattrath City. She fostered a strong devotion to the Light and has since been very empathetic to those in distress. Celienna has acted as a strong diplomat to the Alliance, especially the Night Elves and the Druids of the Cenerion Circle. Through her service to the Alliance, she has gained much respect with her comrades-at-arms. Celienna spent much time with the Druids and fostered a close relationship with nature that has served her well.

Celienna enlisted to fight for the Alliance shortly after arriving on Azeroth on the Exodar. From Azuremyst Isle to the Eastern Kingdoms, Celienna trained and fought, often against the Horde, but more against any enemy that crossed her path. She gladly returned to Outland in order to assist her people and the Alliance in liberating her homelands from Illidan Stormrage. And once that was complete, she quickly joined the Alliance on the frigid continent of Northrend.

During the build-up of forces in Northrend, Celienna was assigned to the frontlines with her fellow guildmates. At the battle of Scourgeholme, Celienna was gravely injured during a Cult of the Damned incursion. Her dear friend, Mahla Swiftwind, tended to her wounds, but found her druidic healing to be ineffective against the grievous injuries. Praying to Elune, Mahla pleaded for Celienna's life. Elune, honoring Celienna's service and sacrfices, bathed the young Draenei in brilliant moonlight, breaking through the clouds on the battlefield. When the light faded, a young, female Night Elf lay before Mahla. Celienna, blessed by the goddess of her recently chosen religion, had been reborn in a new form, that of a Night Elf, in order to serve the Alliance further.

Celienna knew that she was to be a messenger of good to the Alliance. Her hopes were that she could further strengthen the relationships between the Humans, Night Elves, Draenei, Dwarves, and Gnomes. She was quckly adopted into Graydon Shadowblade's house upon her transformation into a Night Elf, which she responded to by taking the last name of Shadowblade. She still loves the Exodar as her native home, but has taken to Darnasus with exuberance.

Combat Style
While Celienna has often concerned herself on being a crack marksman, she has turned to Survival as her prefered style. Celienna has come to rely on more explosive attacks then a well placed arrow or bullet. She has no qualms about closing the gap with an enemy and "cutting them down to size", but she prefers attacking at range in order to take out a foe.

Celienna is quite fond of ambush tactics also. As a Night Elf, she lays in wait, hiding in the shadows for her target. Clovis is often by her side, prowling in the shadows, waiting to attack at his companion's command.

Celienna is well versed in different forms of combat. She is just as quick with a bow as she is with a rifle. Celienna is very proficent with daggers, swords, axes, and polearms. Whichever is in her hands means that her enemies will taste her cold steel.

Companions
Celienna is never anywhere in her travels without Clovis by her side. She has also adopted a Worg which she calls Paco, in rememberance to an old friend's pet dog. Together with her companions, Celienna races into combat, assured of a friend to watch her back. Celienna has befriended many animals throughout Azeroth and Outland during her travels. The Frostsaber Mount, Emerald, is also a constant in her journeys as is the Gryphon mount, Zerkses.

Her efforts in Northrend have had Celienna working closely with the Wyrmrest Accord, which has seen her ally with the Bronze Drake, Nydromo. The two are often found flying into battle together or traveling the forzen continent on Alliance matters of interest.

Friends and Allies
Celienna holds the Druid, Mahla Swiftwind, as her closest friend. The inside joke between them is that Mahla is really another animal companion for Celienna. Graydon Shadowblade, a young Night Elf Warrior, has adopted Celienna into his house, to which Celienna considers the act a great honor. Celienna has taken on a motherly role with the young human Paladin, Rashara "Valkirye" Damodred. Celienna and Rashara's guardian, Aferia Ravenholdt, traveled exstenively together during Celienna's rise through the Alliance ranks. But they have grown distant since her adventures in Northrend and Celienna has taken to guiding Rashara in Aferia's absence.

Celienna can be found riding with a Human warrior, called Hurtcules, often. She is also good friends with the SI: 7 member, Sareyna. There are a hostof others that she calls friends, which she is never far off if th ever need help.

Rivals
The Blood Elf Rogue, Mareena Bloodrayne, has been a thorn in Celienna's side for some time. They both hold a healthy respect for each other, but attempt to foil the other any time an opportunity presents its' self. Celienna respects the Blood Elves and their struggles, but sees them as a enemy, none the less. She is not above flirting with male Blood Elves just to try and enflame Bloodrayne and draw the male off-balance before she strikes.

Celienna has also started a fierce rivalry with the Death Knight, Bloodbath. It remains to be seen if this will turn into more than a grudge or an all-out-war.
