Alustriel Silverhand

Lady Alustriel Silverhand (known as Elué Dualen to the elves) is a human, the former ruler of Silverymoon and is currently the High Lady of the League of the Silver Marches, a confederation of various states in the areas around Silverymoon (Mithral Hall, Everlund, Citadel Adbar to name a few).

She is a powerful mage, being one of the Chosen of Mystra and one of the Seven Sisters. She is known for her love and devotion to her people, something really unusual for many people who hold political power. Therefore, she is extremely popular in Silverymoon, and most of her subjects would do anything in their power to prevent any harm from happening to her. She is considered a wise and fair ruler, but she does not hesitate to be ruthless when needed (i.e. in diplomacy).

As of the events of the Spellplague, Alustriel, along with four of the other chosen seven sisters of Mystra have vanished. They are presumed deceased, minus The Simbul, now much diminished and under an assumed name and Qilue Veladorn who is known to be dead.

Appearance
Apart from being an intelligent, wise, and charismatic leader, she is also very beautiful. She has warm and compassionate eyes and a flawless face.

Relatives
In addition to her siblings, the other six of the Seven Sisters, Alustriel has 12 male children, all with the surname of Aerasumé. Their names are (alphabetically) Andelver, Boesild, Dolthauvin, Elinthalar, Ghaelryss, Inthylyn, Lilinthar Aerasumé, Methrammar, Naerond, Raerilarr, Tarthilmor, and Uoundeld. She also has female children that have never appeared in realmslore..

Aims
She always sought to create a realm that would radiate glory and culture, much like the elven kingdom of Myth Drannor. Despite her desires, she knows that sometimes another course of action may be appropriate, such as when she once denied the dark elf ranger Drizzt Do'Urden entry to the city in order to maintain good relations with nearby Nesmé.

Eventually, as Drizzt became more accepted in the general area (and regarded as a hero by many), he has since been allowed into Silverymoon by Alustriel. They became friends over the years, where she and Drizzt (along with Drizzt’s pet Guenhwyvar) had repeatedly spent time alone together in Alustriel’s home.

Speculation
Given her part in Khelben "Blackstaff" Arunsun's goal in creating a city safe from the outside world and his inevitable sacrifice, Alustriel may have stayed in the city created to help her recently widowed sister, Larael, raise the twins she is pregnant with. After Mystra's fall the chosen would be hunted and this city would be the safest place to go since it was created before the spell plague and survived the instability of the weave.
