Gwynharwyf

Gwynharwyf, known as the Whirling Fury and the Veiled, was consort and champion of Queen Morwel and a celestial paragon of the Court of Stars of the eladrin. While a bralani, one of the lesser eladrin, she was considered a princess among the tulani nobles and patron of good barbarians, acting as an example of how righteous anger can be tempered with goodness. Her endless crusade against evil served as an inspiration for all eladrin peoples.

Description
Gwynharwyf appeared elf-like with wild, silver-white hair, tanned skin, and eyes the color of jade. She was somewhat short and stocky as were most bralani.

Abilities
Gwynharwyf was a barbarian warrior unrivaled in her ferocity in battle. She never tired, even after exerting herself in a fit of rage, and no one could succeed in flanking her. She had an uncanny ability to dodge dangers before most would even be able to sense them.

As a bralani eladrin, Gwynharwyf could take the form of a whirlwind of sparkling, stinging sand. She had all the inherent magical powers of her kind, including the ability to see in darkness and low light, strong resistance to magic spells, several immunities, and many spell-like powers. She could only be harmed by the most powerful of mundane weapons, but she could be injured by cold iron or weapons wielded by truly evil beings. Additionally, Gwynharwyf's beautiful voice had all the powers of bardic magic.

She was at all times surrounded by a magical aura of goodness and light that resisted evil and protected against weaker magical spells and effects.

Gwynharwyf could magically speak and understand any tongue.

Possessions
Gwynharwyf fought with a pair of scimitars that gleamed with every color of the rainbow. One of these holy blades could banish enemies that it injured.

Activities
When not attending to Queen Morwel's needs, Gwynharwyf was found leading armies of champions into battle against fiendish forces.

Gwynharwyf did not make a permanent abode but could be found wandering the elven realm of Arvandor or the Gates of the Moon.

Relationships
Queen Morwel showed great affection for Gwynharwyf and relied heavily on her advice. Gwynharwyf herself was served by a bralani champion named Sirocco, who was charming and mischievous in his behavior but fully loyal to her.

History
Throughout history, Gwynharwyf was responsible for the downfall of many of the most powerful of wicked entities. She slew the mortal Kostchtchie and crushed the magic, gem-containing skull where he had stored his hateful soul, sending him to the Abyss. (It was only later that he returned a demigod.)

Demogorgon once allied with Ilsidahur of the barlguras to re-open the portal known as the Shining Vortex of Mesnar from the Abyssal forest of Morathkian to Arborea. Through it, the two demon lords led an army in revenge against the eladrin's ancient invasion of the Abyss. Gwynharwyf's armies pushed the fiendish forces back to the Abyss, but in order to seal the portal, she had to sacrifice herself and remained trapped there. Gwynharwyf was taken prisoner, but the two demon lords could not agree on the best way to torture and kill the bralani princess, and Morwel sent a force of her own to free her cherished consort from their hands.
