Lady Alustriel Silverhand, once known to the elves as Elué Dualen, was a human wizard[48] who served for many years as the ruler of the open city of Silverymoon[8][49] and, later, as the High Lady of the League of the Silver Marches, a confederation of various settlements across the untamed North (Mithral Hall, Everlund, and Citadel Adbar, to name a few).[50]

The Shining Lady was incredibly skilled in the use of magic, being one of the Chosen of Mystra and the Seven Sisters.[11][47][44] Her name was known anywhere north of the nation of Tethyr and the Living City of Ravens Bluff,[32] and she was renowned for her love and devotion to her people. As a ruler, she was wise and fair, but knew to be ruthless when certain diplomatic endeavors demanded it.[3][12][49] For this reason, and many more, Lady Hope was extremely popular in Silverymoon, and most of her subjects would do anything in their power to prevent any harm from happening to her.[44]

Better to show forth soft words than swagger the steel hidden beneath.
— A personal saying of Alustriel's.[22]

Description[]

Apart from being an intelligent, wise, and charismatic leader, Alustriel was also incredibly beautiful, so much so that it was said those who gazed upon her immediately fell in love. Certain bards even refuse to write about her, claiming that nothing they could pen would truly live up to her beauty.[49] She had warm and compassionate eyes that sparkled like a sun-dappled river and a flawless, warm face.[49][51] She was 5 ft 11 in (180 cm) tall[29][49][note 2] and graceful,[49] possessing the slender figure,[49][52] long silver hair,[49][52][44][53] and everlasting youth common to the rest of her sisters.[11][49][54] Most frequently, she wore monochromatic robes of grey or white,[52][44] of full length[52] and simple cut, exchanging them for darker-colored[44] gowns during more formal circumstances, and carried her unicorn-headed staff of Silverymoon.[52]

Personality[]

Stormy weather is always with us, somewhere in Faerûn. Beneath it, all too often, swords are out, the hand that wields one seeking to bury it in the body that wields another. Part of the way of things as the gods order, perhaps—or just the way of all of us flawed beings who walk this world. I fear I'll never see a day when no swords will be drawn—or needed. But then, perhaps my sight fails too soon.
— Alustriel, as quoted in one publication of To Harp and to Help.[55][note 3]

In her attempts to ensure peace, Alustriel preferred to rely on the skills she developed as a master diplomat, alongside her inborn grace and kindness,[6][8][10][53] and only rarely employed her magic.[3][12][49] Over her many years, she was recognized as a very astute ruler, always judging wisely and honorably. She held to the tenets of Silverymoon even among strangers, behaving with them as she did among friends: with open arms and little suspicion. This attitude, though it seemed outwardly carefree, hid the fact that Alustriel recognized and accepted the burden that was her duty to the Silvaeren, one that she did not take lightly. When dealing with politics, she revealed a kind of clever legislative aptitude, and bargained only after carefully assessing both sides. It was said only a woman like Alustriel, not only intelligent and kind but also capable and inspiring, could make her dreams of a civilized North possible.[49]

Good-hearted as she was,[47] Alustriel did her best to veer conflicts away from violent resolution[52] and was tranquil and restrained enough to consider it only when all other options had been exhausted.[29] She knew all too well, however, that combat was always a possibility and was therefore prepared to engage into magical combat with her full, unrestrained capabilities.[29][52]

Abilities[]

As a Chosen of Mystra, Alustriel was well-regarded as a highly-capable and naturally-talented spellcaster,[10] so much so that even the Time of Troubles had no effect on her nor her sisters.[11] Such a status bestowed many unique abilities, making a death from old age impossible, allowing her the use of silver fire, and the capacity to hear every time her name or titles were uttered, among many other strange powers.[56] Due not only to her prodigious skill but also her many years of study, she was able to recognize and cast nearly any spell.[47] As of the Year of the Banner, 1368 DR,[57] the Shining Lady even had access to a variety of rarely-known spells, including Khelben's dweomerdoom,[58] which she cast with an amulet of moonstone carrying her symbol,[59] Laeral's crowning touch,[59][60] and those she created herself, but she preferred relying on more common ones when possible.[61] She was also one of the only three people who were thought to know the spells capable of recharging spellstars,[62] and one of the few Harpers experienced enough to be able to create a scroll of the Harpers.[63]

Despite all these inborn gifts for magic, more often than not, she did away with any violent or combat-oriented spells,[47][49] attesting that her Spellguard were enough to protect her.[49] Instead, Alustriel prepared those that helped facilitate her knowledge-gathering or caused little outward destruction,[47][49] such as unseen servant, tongues, legend lore, or foresight, among many others.[47] She might humbly cast teleport to visit a favored grove on a beautifully moonlight occasion, to free herself of her bodyguards for a while, or even to help someone late to an important meeting, sparing them any embarassment. These meetings she might bolster through the use of Mordenkainen's magnificent mansion, but not to gain any favor over those she sat across. Fly was a favorite spell of hers, but it was shapechange that she favored most of all, which she enjoyed as a way to learn about how the world might seem from the perspective of another.[49]

Given the centuries she ruled the city, Alustriel became supremely knowledgeable on the magical wards of Silverymoon, and was, during her time as the city's ruler, one of the few people allowed to cast spells within the city's High Palace, the others being the Spellguard, Silverymoon's peacekeeping wizards.[36]

Her intelligence, however, did not extend merely to spellcasting. Alustriel had a gifted memory, remembering a variety of minor details about other people or their lives with little difficulty, and furthermore, she was capable of bringing all such knowledge together to make educated, useful decisions. Her planning was never some magical divining, but rather a calculated and well-founded notion, making her one of Toril's formost strategists and foretellers. Whether juggling the responsibilities of several trade disputes or monster attacks, Alustriel was rarely overwhelmed. She shared very little of this information except with those trusted agents such as capable Harpers or her sons. On occasion, however, some parts would find their way into offhanded comments made in the presence of adventurers, who would then go on to, unwittingly, pursue the goals of the High Lady.[29]

During her adventuring days, she also developed a keen eye for gems and other jewels, able to identify them even after such changes of color or shape.[29]

Possessions[]

Alustriel, during her many years as the ruler of Silverymoon, had access to any and all of the city's many resources. Though this included standard equipment, she rarely had a need for it, instead utilizing some of the magic items the Gem of the North had collected,[47] including a variety of wands, rings, rods, or staffs,[64] most notable of all being her staff of Silverymoon.[47][62] Those she collected or created herself, she tended to give away for those who greater needed them,[49] preferring instead to carry only a few magic items, especially those small enough to be worn.[65] These included bracers of defense,[29][47][49] made to resemble gold bracelets,[29][49] an amulet of proof against detection and location, and a ring of protection +2.[29][47][49] To ensure her own safety,[66] the Shining Lady did also carry a wand of illumination on her person,[47][66][49] as well as an elixir of health and three potions of extra-healing[47][66], all in metal vials along her belt.[66] Furthermore, Alustriel often wore boots of elvenkind with their matching cloak of elvenkind.[29][47][49] She also used one Alustriel's sword pendant,[47][67] a silver item that never took on rust and carried many magical properties,[65] and, on occasions where she met with the public, would additionally wear an ironguard ring.[68]

As of the Year of the Prince, 1357 DR,[69] Alustriel had been gifted one of Savengriff's original wands of banishment by the mage himself, for her work as part of the Harpers.[4][70] At some point, she also utilized a Grimwald's dagger, becoming the first to popularize the use of such a weapon.[71][72]

Alustriel's gift to Bruenor

The locket would prove useful to the Companions of the Hall many times over their years of adventure.

Of note, in a more intimate capacity, around 1356 DR, Alustriel made for herself a locket, heart-shaped and carried on a golden chain, which contained a picture of Drizzt Do'Urden. The locket warmed whenever it neared the drow himself, and though she claimed it was only to better know when he, alongside the other Companions of the Hall, returned to Silverymoon, it held a unique significance to the Bright Lady. Sheepish as she was to reveal the magic item, she bestowed it upon Bruenor Battlehammer so that he could more easily track down his allies during their voyage to Calimshan.[73][74] As a gift to Catti-brie, Alustriel also gave her a Cat's Eye circlet before the fighter went down into Menzoberranzan.[75][76]

Later, a few months before she gave up the title of High Mage, she also made the Mythanthar's Orb that could be used to seal Hellgate Keep once more.[77] Alustriel is also the one who created the lesser staffs of Silverymoon.[78]

Activities[]

As a senior Harper of the North,[44] Alustriel worked to safeguard its people from the threats they faced from both within and without the Savage Frontier.[10][43] During her time as the High Mage of Silverymoon, the city itself became a haven for Harpers and acted as an extension of her dedication to the cause.[15][79][80] For many years, she worked against the forces of Hellgate Keep.[10] So too did her rulership of Silverymoon make Alustriel a part of the Lords' Alliance, meaning she participated in its council meetings and forums.[81] She was generally regarded as the most pensive of her sisters, and, for most of her life, preferred to work towards her goals of peace and prosperity from a stable, public position as ruler, rather than as a nomadic adventurer,[44][11] and frequently took walks across her fair city, engaging her citizens in pleasant conversation.[44] In large part, this method of rulership also enabled her to keep Silverymoon as a beautiful bastion of knowledge.[11] This did not mean she was passive, however, as it was with her help, as well as that of the Mistmaster, that Silverymoon's military, the Knights in Silver, wrenched many spectacular victories from the jaws of defeat.[53]

In what little spare time she had, Alustriel also penned a small number of texts over her years, including A Harper's Guide in 1264 DR,[82][83] To Harp and to Help in 1271 DR,[55][82][83] and, twenty-three years later, To Harp and to Help-An Addendum.[82][note 4]

Aims[]

All that I ask you to understand is that, as leader of my city, I am forced at times to act for the overall good, whatever the cost to an individual.
— Alustriel, speaking to herself as well as to Drizzt, during her apology to the ranger.[84][85]

Ever the utopic visionary, Alustriel always sought to create a peaceful realm, one that would cultivate love, harmony, and glory, much like the elven kingdom of Myth Drannor.[12][53][49][86] It was only due to these lofty ideals and her fair rulership that the North began to shift from an untamed, violent wilderness to a land amenable to such civilization.[44] So much did she do for the cultured peoples of the North that a saying came to be known, describing how anyone who wished to truly understand the splendors of humanity would visit the Gem of the North, knowing that any true splendor arose thanks to her. The true and earnest goodness of her character earned her the reverence of not only humans but demihumans as well, whom she uplifted just as much.[22]

Despite her desires, she knew that sometimes another course of action would 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.[87] This kind of situation, the sort where she must knowingly treat someone unjustly, where one of the few things that deeply upset the unflappable Alustriel.[29][84] Eventually, as Drizzt became more accepted in the general area (and regarded as a hero by many), he was allowed into Silverymoon by Alustriel. They became friends over the years, where she and Drizzt (along with Drizzt's companion, Guenhwyvar) repeatedly spent time alone together in Alustriel's home.[88]

Relationships[]

There are some who hold that the High Lady of Silverymoon is a deluded dreamer, doomed to fail in her fair craftings because she thinks too highly of the good in folk, and too little of the evil that lurks always near at hand. I am not one of those.

Family[]

In addition to her siblings, the other six of the Seven Sisters,[49] Alustriel's family included her many children. Most of these had different fathers, but twelve males, all half-elves with the surname of Aerasumé (elven for silver-moon [of the evening]), had the same one, a tall elven lord who helped Alustriel gain elven support for the expansion of Silverymoon but was thereafter killed by orcs. These sons' names were Andelver, Boesild,[89] Dolthauvin, Elinthalar, Ghaelryss, Inthylyn, Lilinthar, Methrammar,[90] Naerond, Raerilarr, Tarthilmor, and Uoundeld. Collectively, these boys were known as The Tall Ones and were all warriors of some skill.[33][52] However, not much is conclusively known of any of Alustriel's progeny beyond the Aerasumé.

For a few years in the late 1340's and early 1350's, Alustriel took in Perendra Raslemtar, then fourteen, after Mirt brought her to Silverymoon. The Shining Lady fostered the girl within the High Palace and raised her to maturity, both in her age and in her magical potential. Only a handful of years before 1357 DR did Perendra leave her foster mother, electing to join the Harpers after departing on good and loving terms with Alustriel.[35]

Allies[]

In her own court, Alustriel could count many close allies, none moreso than Taern "Thunderspell" Hornblade,[52][91] a long-time advisor of hers and, during her years as the High Mage, the commander of her Spellguard.[91] She was also aided by Phlynk, a doppelganger. Having saved his life at some point, he began to serve her not only dutifully but also lovingly, using his shapeshifting capabilities to patrol the whole of Silverymoon.[52] At any moment, she could call upon two dozen Harpers, or half that number in apprentices, as well as six other mages of varying ability, not to mention the large majority of the Silvaeren people, who would gladly accept any duty she asked of them.[61]

Alustriel meets Drizzt

Alustriel as she appeared the first time she met Drizzt Do'Urden, who would go on to become a close friend of the High Lady.

She, being one of them, was a close ally to other Chosen of Mystra such as Elminster,[92] even aprenticing under him for a time,[93] and was also a known member of the Harpers alongside the Chosen Khelben Arunsun,[1][10][46][79][80][94][95][96] which earned her much respect among the people of the North, even with certain Uthgardt tribes.[79] In particular, she formed a strong bond with the Tree Ghost tribe,[97][98] to the point that their warriors were ready to lay down their lives for her,[97] but after the rediscovery of their treasured Grandfather Tree in 1368 DR, they turned their focus instead towards the arakhor's protection, a duty Alustriel vocally supported, even going as far as gifting the tribe some supplies they sorely required while they settled their town.[99] Even in Tethyr, which often distrusted the Harpers, Alustriel's name was respected.[100]

Given her kind and understanding manner, Alustriel had many friends and allies across the North and beyond. In the lands of northern Faerûn, to protect the sage Esklindrar Iol and his rich knowledge, Alustriel cast a set of protective spells upon his person, as well as on the treasured tomes he sold.[8][91][101][102] She also befriended Elsura Dauniir upon her return to Silverymoon and encouraged her to hone her magical skills by learning from the Harpers,[103] a group that counted Asilther Graelor, another commonly-known friend of Alustriel, among their ranks.[104] The peace of Silverymoon and the nearby lands was not only due to her connections to the Those Who Harp, however, but also the influence of the Shadowcloak and the Mistmaster, two local spellcasters of great capabilities.[105] The dragon Deszeldaryndun Silverwing was often a close ally to Alustriel, to the point where he was given permission to take her name and form when magically disguising himself, a role he played perfectly.[106][107][108][109]

In the Sword Coast, the elderly she-dragon, Amaeraszantha, considered her a friend,[110] as did Amelior Amanitas of Secomber.[111] Farther away, in Cormyr, Alustriel also developed a working relationship with Myschanta Halarra of Arabel, a well-regarded mage-for hire. Since sometime around 1336 DR, Myschanta was called upon for aid in times of need, and, in turn, the sorceress trusted the Shining Lady well enough to have her body transported directly to Alustriel through a contingency spell should she be killed or severely wounded. Though this rarely occurred over the years of their friendship, it shocked the Silvaeren court every time.[112]

Apprentices[]

Alustriel had many fledgling mages learning the intricacies of the Art under her eye, and many more whom she taught only ocasionally.[113] One such wizard was the young Shandril Shessair's lover, Narm Tamaraith,[114] but as of the late 14th-century DR, the ranks of Alustriel's apprentices also included the reverent Jemmethra Halatorn, the blunt Narandar Torstin, and the playful Zelauma Telthornstars.[113]

The first, Alustriel met by happenstance on the moonlit streets of Silverymoon, accepting Jemmethra as an apprentice then and there without knowing how the woman would become her handmaiden, of sorts, and one of her most passionate worshipers. Zelauma, too, came to be an apprentice by chance. When her habits of climbing the roofs and spires of Silverymoon came to the attention of the Spellguard, it was Alustriel who listened in to their report to Taern, her interest piqued. Ultimately, the High Lady of Silverymoon had the same effect on her half-elven apprentice as she did on most people, causing Zelauma to fall head-over-heels in love with her tutor.[113]

Though he was second in rank, below Jemmethra but above Zelauma, Narandar did not outwardly worship the Bright Lady as much as the others. He did look up to her, and Alustriel was aware of it, but their relationship seemed much more akin to an ordinary friendship than anything else, with the pair frequently joking or critiquing each other in a way they could not with anyone else. He also served as her personal dresser, managing any of her garment-related duties. When he came to Silverymoon with a cache of his father's stolen spellbooks, wishing both to return them and to be taught under their original owners, it was Alustriel who offered an apprenticeship, and such was an opportunity he could not refuse.[113]

Alustriel was also always happy to impart the knowledge of spellcasting onto anyone who pleased her. The streets of Silverymoon were full of such people, commonfolk who delighted her in one way or another and so earned themselves the ability to cast one or two spells, a privilege extended even to travelers new to the city. In the case of newcomers, however, both to those interesting enough to catch her attention as well as those being initiated into the Spellguard, their apprenticeship served as bait. To ensure that they had no evil intentions or dark ties, Taern and other Spellguard, or sometimes Laeral, helped Alustriel test their character, with a spell waiting for them at the end as a reward for good behavior.[113]

Enemies[]

It was rare for Alustriel to have any truly personal foes, as even those who wished to bring down Silverymoon would not dare to attack so widely beloved a woman as she.[52] The most notable exception was also once one of her many lovers, that being Sammaster, an ex-Chosen of Mystra and later the founder of the Cult of the Dragon. Their relationship fell into a one-sided obsession and ultimately resulted in Alustriel nearly perishing by his hand before the other Chosen rescued her and put an end to him.[115][116] Even so, for centuries later, Alustriel held onto the belief that it was not luck that kept her from dying before the other Chosen appeared, but rather some still-human part of Sammaster. The same part, she thought, that took over his faculties in their battle's final moments, choosing to lose after recognizing the error of his ways.[117]

As of 1370 DR,[118] Sammaster's dracolich legacy had spawned Daurgothoth, the Creeping Doom. Though she, and the other Chosen of Mystra, knew well Daurgothoth's endeavours, she was stopped from intervening because of the way that his experiments ultimately fomented the growth of magic itself, as was Mystra's own goal.[119] She did her best, however, to combat the threat of his descendant Cult, and was often the target of their attacks in turn, as most continued their attempts to avenge Sammaster on her.[45]

As uncommon as it was, Alustriel occassionally displeased certain individuals over her many years of life. As far away as Daggerford, the silent Maranta refused to acknowledge those who had heard Alustriel's hypothesis that her curse was due to Malar,[120] and, similarly, the dwarven wizard Behring rejected the Lady's suggestion that his magical affinities came from some human blood in his lineage.[121]

History[]

Early Years[]

Born Endué Alustriel Silverhand in the Year of the Snow Sword, 762 DR, Endué Alustriel was the second child of Elué Shundar, a half-elven sorceress, and Dornal Silverhand, a land-ruling human nobleman somewhere near Neverwinter. Her childhood in Silverhand Tower was peaceful enough, but only for her first five years. It was in 767 DR that her father began to notice his wife's deteriorating state and, thinking her possessed, he killed the woman he loved. The goddess of magic, Mystra, revealed herself to him as the true mother to his daughters, having shared Elué's body so that she might better guide the creation of her blessed Chosen, but this was little comfort to the grieving Dornal and he left her, Endué, and the rest of his daughters behind.[25] Now orphaned, the Silverhand girls needed new homes.[30]

Endué Alustriel and her eldest sister, Anastra Syluné, she took to Bluetower, the home of a Harper, the strict Thamator the Old. Mystra persuaded him that the two girls were, in fact, his nieces, whom he thought had recently died with his younger brother and sister-in-law. Thamator had hoped to train them both as rangers and groom them for a future with the Harpers, but unfortunately for him, neither girl took to such a lifestyle, and soon enough Endué's older sister manifested her natural talent for magic and was apprenticed to a master, leaving Alustriel alone, her miserable youth spent letting down her foster-father. Only once he saw her own gift for the Art, defending herself from the unwanted advances of a pigheaded young man, was Thamator finally satisfied. She had finally shown herself an asset to Those Who Harp,[30] and so he assigned a Harper mage in his household to serve as her tutor.[15]

Alustriel sigil

Alustriel's personal mage sigil.

The hardship of her childhood taught her, most of all, that happiness was not something that would simply happen to her. She had to chase it, and she would have to share it.[29] For this reason, Alustriel took to adventuring early in her life, unquestionably talented with magic. Soon enough, the young wizard found herself with abilities beyond even those of the mages teaching her, finding that she could innately connect to the very foundation of her spellcasting. She did not bend magic to her will, but rather worked alongside it, becoming an extension of of the Art just as it extended through her.[49] Her strong ideas about fostering peace between all races, promoting the arts, these overcame her, and so Alustriel abandoned her wanderings early to travel to Silverymoon and see her ideas realized.[29][49]

Time as Elué Dualen[]

She traveled in disguise in the Year of the Heavy Heart, 815 DR to that fair city, taking the name Elué Dualen,[122] after her mother,[123] and demonstrating a prowess with her magic that far surpassed what her apparent age suggested. Soon enough, she was a close confidante, a friend, to Amaara Nharimlur, the High Mage at the time, as well as her sister, Lynnàsha "Lynx" Nharimlur. Only a few years later, in the Year of the Firewall, 821 DR, Elué opened the Lady's College with Lynnàsha, notable for its unique method of payment which saw apprentice mages working as part of Silverymoon's defences for the same amount of time they studied at the College. The white-haired Elué, furthermore, built upon the Silver Lady's Library, another first for the city. Then, in 843 DR, she, Lynx, Amaara, the sisters' mother, High Mistress Élenaril, as well as three more mages worked in tandem to weave a spell powerful enough to create Silverymoon's famous Moonbridge in the place of the original stone one.[122] It was during the same year that the wizard mythal sustaining Silverymoon's wards was established, created by Élue alongside a cabal of other mages.[124] Slightly over a decade later, when Amaara and her mother left for Evermeet in the Year of Forgotten Fame, 857 DR, Elué was named the next High Mage of the city.[37][123]

In 861 DR, Alustriel met, and fell for, a fellow Chosen of Mystra named Sammaster.[125][123] He saw in her a beauty he had not seen since gazing upon the goddess of magic herself, and so too was Alustriel pulled to him in turn, resulting in the couple whiling away much of their time, together, in the Gem of the North. The High Mage's thoughtful nature soothed much of Sammaster's idiosyncracies and grief, but she was unable to curb his penchant for obsession. Just as her beauty dominated him, he wanted to dominate her, but Alustriel was not eager to bow to his control and evaded any attempts to turn their relationship into a game he could manipulate. His continued necromantic studies only served to further trouble her. Only three years after their meeting, in 864 DR,[125] they were forced to split, a motion that left Alustriel filled with regret,[123] but served only to push Sammaster deeper down his dark path.[116][123][125]

Nearly a decade later, sometime in the Year of the Stricken Star, 875 DR,[116][126][127] Alustriel was returning to Silverymoon from diplomatic duties in the west. She had set up camp in the Evermoors[126] when she felt, due to their shared status as Mystra's Chosen, that Sammaster, of all people, was approaching her tent. She exited her tent to meet with the gifted, if overzealous, mage she remembered,[128] but was instead greeted by a trembling, weeping shell of a man.[129] He had bitten his tongue and cheeks so desperately[126] that blood flowed unbidden out of his mouth as he began to yell, crying out all the angry delusions he had harbored since the two last saw one another. Alustriel's utter surprise at his state of being left her vulnerable, and his first srike of silver fire badly wounded her before she could even recover. Though she had not expected the attack, a battle ensued. Throughout it, Alustriel continued her attempts to appeal to his humanity, but her care for him, genuine as it was, only fed the flames of Sammaster's hatred, and she was injured once more. His newfound strength, compounded by the vulnerable sincerity he brought out of her, began to turn the duel to Sammaster's favor. Though she did not want to, knowing it would likely spell a violent death for the man she once loved, Alustriel was forced to call upon two other Chosen,[127][128] Laeral and Elminster,[116][note 5] who immediately appeared at her side to help. The battle only intensified from then on, with the four Chosen's powers so immense that they temporarily blinded one Algashon Nathaire, the hidden, onlooking priest who had orchestrated Sammaster's corruption.[128]

The battle ultimately ended in Alustriel's favor, with the maddened Sammaster beaten.[116][128] The three surviving Chosen came together to comfort one another and heal the injuries inflicted upon the High Mage, but soon after, a manifestation of Azuth took shape among them.[130] The god, in the form of a blazing blue hand, imparted his praise unto the three, not only for their courage in facing such a threat but also their self-control in avoiding Sammaster's death.[117] They watched as Azuth, calling out to Mystra, stripped the broken man of his rank as one of her Chosen.[116][117] A star of silver came from the skies above to rest over Sammaster's body, absorbing his silver fire out through his many injuries and causing the man to raise himself up and scream, only returning his back to the ground after it was done. With the star gone and Azuth decreeing that the man's body needed to remain where it laid as part of his final punishment, Alustriel and her companions returned to Silverymoon. Though she knew it had to be done, she, once more, felt the grief of losing Sammaster.[117]

With little forewarning, the High Lady Mage left Silverymoon a year later in 876 DR, taking Lynnàsha,[37] Lynnàsha's lover Tulrun, and all of their apprentices to the Outer Planes to battle a tanar'ri lord with designs on the North, leaving a council behind to pick her successor.[36] Rather than work towards the betterment of all of Silverymoon as Elué did, however, these councilors fought amongst themselves for power. This ultimately left them vulnerable to one of their own, Warlord Lashtor, the commander of the city's army, who slew the rest of his fellows and, by Ches of the same year, forcefully took control over the Gem of the North. Lynnàsha died in the fighting and Tulrun disappeared. A year after, Elué's most prodigious apprentice, Tanalanthara "She-Wolf" Mytersaal, returned to the city and deposed the tyrant, publicly executing him and becoming High Mage herself.[36][37]

Return to the North[]

A decade after her departure, in the Year of the Fell Firebreak, 886 DR, Alustriel yet again fought against rampaging tanar'ri. Stationed out of Hellgate Keep, their corruptive influence was felt throughout the North, particularly the Far Forest and the woods of Upvale, and so the Bright Lady worked together with a variety of other powerful wizards, like her sister Laeral, Ymlar of Silverymoon, Elminster, Nyaalsir the Stareye, and Khelben Blackstaff among other mages and Harpers to push back the evil. The fighting reached its zenith on Midsummer of the same year, and while some of the spellcasters died in the combat, the others used the time they had to establish potent wards throughout the Keep's lands.[131]

In the Year of the Black Horde, 1235 DR, Alustriel's beloved Silverymoon was yet again at risk of again coming under the sway of evil. Orcs sieged the Gem of the North, enabling the Warlord Khallos Shieldsunder to wrest control of the city from the Silvermayor, Theomel Scalson, but Shieldsunder underestimated the horde and fell to their blades soon after. This instability allowed the orcs to pierce Silverymoon's walls, a nightmare the Silvaeren had not had to experience in six hundred years. Though the Silvermayor held out as long as he could, standing under siege for a month with thousands of orcs outside his walls, he was again usurped, this time by the captain of his nascent Spellguard, Shaloss Ethenfrost. After two more months of defense against the Black Horde, Alustriel returned, backed by her sister, Storm, as the two headed a Harper army directly against Silverymoon's orcish invaders. Only once the sisters and their allies broke through into the city proper and began restoring its defenses did High Mage Ethenfrost reveal himself, attacking Alustriel with his magic. He could already tell that she commanded the Silvaeren's respect and wanted to quickly eliminate her as a political rival, but Alustriel was not so easily defeated. As the fighting raged on against the orcs, later known as the Battle of Tumbleskulls, the Shining Lady embroiled herself in a fierce spellbattle against Ethenfrost and his pair of apprentices, ultimately defeating all three single-handedly. After such a display, having rescued the city from threats both within and without its walls, every one of Silverymoon's residents elected her as their next High Mage, marking the beginning of Alustriel's ladyship.[20][38]

High Mage of Silverymoon[]

Alustriel in shadows

Whatever I may have done in what you have seen was not done alone. You are thanking me for the work of many. I accept on their behalf.
— Alustriel, in response to Elminster complimenting her for Silverymoon's beauty.[132]

Alustriel ruled Silverymoon as High Mage, no longer disguised, for nearly a century-and-a-half, rising to become widely heralded as the most beloved ruler in all Faerûn. She continued to personally sponsor the Lady's College[133] which she'd originally established during her time as Elué,[122] and was generally very supportive of the importance it placed on the history of magic, rather than only the present.[134] Early in her second career as the High Mage, in the Year of the Tressym, 1263 DR, the people of Silverymoon were shocked to find more than a hundred tressym nesting on their roofs for about a tenday, something that Alustriel did little to remedy. She pointed to the prophecies of Alaundo as proof that the creatures' presence was fated and, though most did move on of their own accord, quite a few remained in the the city and made their homes there.[38]

Some time around 1338 DR, a legendary blade of the North known as Susk, or the Silent Sword, was seen in Alustriel's court. It was wielded by Abadda Moonglamaer, who was challenged by Distyl of Nesmé, there and then, to a duel, one that ended with the swordsman's death and Distyl's subsequent claim over Susk.[5][135][136]

When the Nameless Dungeon was discovered by adventurers in the Year of the Crown, 1351 DR,[137] it caused an uproar in the North's elven population. The discussion surrounding it was so fervent that Alustriel was even visited by a diplomat from Evermeet asking her to make outlaws out of those who had plundered its ancient halls,[138] a request she modestly acquiesed to. The elven guard established around the Nameless Dungeon was bolstered by some of Silverymoon's soldiers and successfully kept out any trespassers, only allowing those with special tokens, bestowed solely by the High Lady herself, to pass through. She only rarely granted these and, even then, they were largely given to scholars and historians.[137]

When the news of Syluné's passing reached Silverymoon, Alustriel bore her grief heavily, a state reflected by her city. She established a tenday period of mourning across the entire Gem of the North, but the High Lady personally maintained it for almost an entire year.[38]

Alustriel awoken by Bruenor

Ever graceful, even when so suddenly awakened by King Bruenor Battlehammer in the wee hours of the night.

In 1357 DR, Alustriel allied with Khelben once more to break Laeral out of the influence of the Crown of Horns, restoring her sister's humanity for the first time since she'd put on the Crown twenty years before.[139][140][141][note 6] It was during this year Alustriel also established one of her most important political alliances, that with Mithral Hall, when she aided its newly-established King Battlehammer against drow incursions, particularly from House Baenre.[38]

Around 20 years after the mage Nchaser's disappearance, Alustriel briefly came to possess his spellbook, Nchaser's Eiyromancia. She gifted it to a dwarf from Citadel Adbar, but lost track of it after that same dwarf, too, disappeared.[142][143][144]

In mid-Kythorn of the Year of Shadows, 1358 DR,[145] when Mystra was destroyed during the Time of Troubles, Alustriel was in her chambers within the High Palace of Silverymoon. Nearby, a hidden doorway connected her to Taern, her closest guard and confidant, while her magic connected her mind to his disconcerted one. He was praying. Though he felt the effects of Mystra's passing, the root cause was not yet clear to him in the way that it was to Alustriel.[22][146] Some time earlier in the year, when the goddess shared her Power among her Chosen, a portion of it went to the High Lady of Silverymoon,[147][148] enough that Alustriel's body — her hair, eyes, hands, all — glowed with a blue-white aura. Enough that her magic, stronger than ever, could be felt with just a touch. Though she tried her best to comfort Taern, even Alustriel could not ignore the severity of the situation, finding that tears had begun to stream down her face and grief choked her words. She joined him in prayer, no longer directed to her mother but to Azuth, so that the god might guide Elminster[22][146] and Midnight. They would surely face many hardships as parts of Mystra's plan. This did little to soothe Alustriel or Taern, however, and so she brought her lips to his forehead, reading his anxious thoughts instinctively through the magnitude of her new Art. She read them even as they shifted from the affairs of the gods to Alustriel herself, and all the love Taern felt for her. With a quiet touch and a gaze, Alustriel seemed to return the sentiment.[22][149]

During this same period of unstable magic, Alustriel attempted to light her way through a dark cellar in Silverymoon. The spell she casted, otherwise simple, instead surprised her by bringing down the whole of the tower that rested above her.[147]

In Uktar of the same year, Alustriel went on a trip with one of her sisters, Dove, to Waterdeep, where the two visited the home of Amelior Amanitas. His absence meant the pair let themselves in and made a mess, and their attempts to clean up only made it worse, so Alustriel left him a gift to make up for it.[138]

At some point during or just prior to 1360 DR, Alustriel participated in a meeting of senior Harpers, once more alongside Dove as well as her husband, Florin Falconhand, Elminster, Mourngrym Amcathra, and a man known only as Urso. The discussion centered around the growing Zhentarim presence in the Anauroch[13] and resulted in Lander, then a newcomer, vowing to put an end to it.[150] It was during this same year that Alustriel received Myschanta's burned corpse, thanks to the latter's contingency, after the Night Parade killed her during their infiltration of Arabel. The High Lady worked to have the woman resurrected after only a few tendays,[151] and, once Arabel was saved, the wizard was already alive and well while she recovered in Silverymoon.[152]

At some point prior to 1361 DR, Alustriel was informed of the debt that she, and the whole of Silverymoon, owed to the family of Margie MacLickel. To pay this, Margie and her husband, Argint "Mac" MacLickel were given the Queen of the Rivers, an enchanted trading ship whose creation was overseen by the Bright Lady after she accompanied the couple, married in Silverymoon only a little while prior, to Teshendale.[153]

When her elder sister, Syluné, was thought to have returned sometime in the Year of Maidens, 1361 DR, Alustriel met with the rest of the Seven in a cottage outside of Shadowdale to discuss their next course of action. Though the Bright Lady seemed hopeful that Syluné truly had returned to life,[154] her sisters were not so confident,[155] and so she ultimately assented to Qilué's plan of sending her daughter, Alustriel's niece, Ysolde Veladorn to deal with the false Sister, who was in fact the drow, Liriel Baenre.[156] It was during this same year that Alustriel was goaded out of the wards of her city by members of the Cult of the Dragon, four archmages who casted spells just outside Silverymoon's walls. Half of their number were quickly eliminated by the Bright Lady, working in cooperation with Taern Hornblade, but after he and the Spellguard were called to deal with a dracolich on the city's southern wall, she was left vulnerable. One more enemy archmage fell before the fourth and final one gained the upper hand on Alustriel, but, thankfully, her life was saved by the sudden appearance of Laeral and Khelben Arunsun.[38][157]

At some point in the Year of the Banner, 1368 DR, Alustriel requested that Elminster put together a guide to the Unapproachable East for the Harpers — a task he readily passed onto his assistant and scribe, Lhaeo.[158] Around the middle of the same year, Lhaeo, having now returned to his identity as Haedrak III, reunited Alustriel with her foster daughter, Perendra, in Silverymoon, as part of a plan to put an end to the Reclamation Wars in Tethyr.[100]

The next year,[159] Alustriel was a guest at Haedrak's wedding on the 30th of Kythorn. Her gift took the form of magical wards at his Royal Palace, Faerntarn, as well as installing stones from Syluné's cottage into the castle's own floor, allowing the woman to manifest within its halls.[160] She, alongside Elminster, also enchanted both his and his wife's state crowns with a variety of magical effects.[161]

Later in the year, sometime in the summer, Alustriel would yet again have to face the evil brewing in Hellgate Keep after Tanta Hagara rallied her forces into hordes that caused chaos across the North, including the lands near Silverymoon. The High Lady defended her city personally, weaving powerful spells against the raiding demons,[162] and eventually they were all successfully pushed back with help from the Harpers and the Mistmaster.[163] Though most attributed it to the treant Turlang,[41] it was rumored by some that it was Alustriel's doing that caused the avalanche that blocked Turnstone Pass, and Upvale with it,[164] as a way to protect Sundabar and Citadel Felbarr from those demons that had fled the Keep's downfall. Though members of her very own Spellguard corroborated this course of events, she refused to confirm it.[165] Some time after these events, the High Lady sent a troop of her Silvaeren guards to investigate why trolls had been venturing further from the Evermoors since the last year, which was found to be due to a group of around twenty fog giants of friendly disposition, who had made their home in the trolls' former habitat.[41] Given the instability of the time, Alustriel also decreed that, for the time being, each of her patrol of Knights be accompanied by a pair of Spellguards riding with them.[53]

Among everything else that demanded the Lady Hope's attention, rumors arose that a man fitting the description of Orjalun, a previous High Mage who mysteriously disappeared centuries ago, was seeking The Arbatel. Alustriel herself was very curious about the truth of this information, asking those who had heard the rumors for further news.[8] Thinking him long dead, she did not believe him to have truly returned, instead supposing his ghost had returned to bring the tome back to the Gem of the North.[166]

Alustriel was awoken, alongside others faithful of Mystra like Laeral,[167] in the early hours of Highharvestide[168] by Halaster Blackcloak's desperate message.[169]

One of her last acts as the High Mage was to encourage Arkhen of Arkhen's Invocatorium to leave his institute and collaborate with her idea for a unified school of magic, later known as the Conclave of Silverymoon, an idea that would also benefit the husk of Fochlucan. Though it was only in Marpenoth of the Year of the Gauntlet, 1369 DR that the University was publicly established, The Harper Myrthos Shyllantham inquired to see if Alustriel could not finance the reclamation of the once-presitigious bard school, having been shut since the orc siege that prompted the Lady Hope's return, especially since she had always refused to tear down the building. Though no one had stepped in to restore its halls as she'd hoped, it was suggested the Conclave might have a use for its legacy.[39]

Birth of a New Alliance[]

Alustriel Soars

Why clear your head with a walk when your staff allows you to fly?

At some point afterwards, in the late autumn or winter of the same year, Alustriel brought together the leaders of various cities and towns across the North in Silverymoon, holding a meeting where she discussed their shared safety in the face of recent events. Despite all the hard work it took to reclaim Citadel Felbarr from orcs and destroy Hellgate Keep, the Savage Frontier was still just that: a dangerous, savage expanse. Among other things, the Bright Lady also announced that her Spellguard had prophesied an even bigger threat, that of dragons arriving to the whole of the Moonlands as well as the Nether Mountains. It took three entire days for this conference to debate on how they might all deal with these troubles, but their conclusion was surprisingly unanimous, as the leaders agreed it stood in their best interests to unite as common countrymen and women. Despite the support her people had for her, Alustriel did not speak up to try and take the nation's leadership herself, letting Harbromm, Emerus Warcrown, and Helm Dwarf-Friend quarrel amongst themselves for it. These arguments continued for a tenday. Ultimately, they concluded that, to best work in unison, they needed a leader all of their nation's citizens and leaders could respect, a sentiment that only Alustriel could inspire. She herself needed a further tenday to ponder accepting such a decision, and even when she did, it was with great honor as well as great trepidation.[40]

Her first, and most direct, decision once the Alliance of Silverymoon was founded had been simply to step down from her position as the ruler of Silverymoon,[41] bestowing the title unto Taern Hornblade so that she might better focus on bringing peace to the whole of the North,[39][40] a project that would eventually become the League of the Silver Marches.[26] In turn, she passed on Taern's title as the commander of the Spellguard to his half-elf nephew, Jorus Azuremantle.[40]

Knowing that her Knights in Silver could not possibly patrol the whole of the North with their forces, her simple request to the gathered leaders was that they might unify portions of their lands' soldiers into a single, unified force. She, in Silverymoon's name, vowed two hundred of her troops to this new alliance, and named her third-eldest son, Methrammar Aerasumé, as its leader. Afterwards, when the meeting finally ended, the members scheduled their next discussion to be in six months or, if called once more by Alustriel, earlier than even that. One of the many points of discussion they were all left on was the name of the country under whose banner they now all stood under, though the Shining Lady, yet again, remained impartial in every direction. Taern proposed Alustryl after her, while others variously suggested the Shining Lands,[40] the High Lands, New Delzoun, and even Luruar. Though there was much to talk about, Alustriel swore that by Midsummer of the next year, their nation would have its name.[170]

High Lady of the Silver Marches[]

Hellgate Keep as an organized satellite of villainy is no more. Despite our best hopes, however, the evil was not eradicated utterly, and that which was once contained therein now may have gained egress to the realms beyond the Upvale. The corruption should end with its passing, for I have no wish to see my people nor my realm suffer the fates that befell Ascalhorn or Eaerlann. I beseech those who take the mantle of heroes to stand forth and prevent such depredations from spreading further than the wards that once penned them in. For doing this, ye shall receive my blessings and those of the people, and perhaps even those of the five goddesses of Luruar.
— Alustriel, as the Lady Hope of Luruar in 1370 DR, calling for the aid of adventurers in dealing with Hellgate Keep.[171]

Though she was no longer the High Mage of Silverymoon, Alustriel's first few years as the leader of a blossoming Northern confederation were not easy. She still ruled from the High Palace of Silverymoon, for example, but it had not been built with the space to permit two governing bodies, meaning she had to share the space with Taern, her successor. Once construction began around spring of the Year of the Tankard, 1370 DR, the city's eastern walls, alongside the guarrisons and the Palace itself, expanded, but it was estimated it could take up to a year before full completion was achieved.[172] She needed sufficient space, given her plans to host a Council of Twelve Peers to aid her during her rule, as well as the help of the Heralds of Faerûn and their historical insights.[40]

The High Lady's Palace

The Brothers of Helm, led by Erssler Thamm out of their temple at the House Invincible were eager to help, giving over certain quarters and offices, as well as the smaller of their chapels, as an assembly hall for the nation's fledgling army. It seemed the god approved of her work, and, since she did not even need demand it of them, the Shining Lady was only more deeply appreciative.[172] In addition to those of Helm, she also spoke to certain clergy of Selûne, those of the Temple of Silver Stars, with the hope that they might venture into the northern countryside, mapping territory with Harpers and even priests of Deneir.[134]

The work of Turlang was, by now, of concern to Alustriel, as his expansions could potentially reach Everlund. She planned to have a mediating discussion with the treant, only should he push too close, alongside a recent friend and Chosen of Mielikki, Jeryth Phaulkon, who was of Everlund herself.[165]

Around the same time[171], Hellgate Keep was still a problem, and though her forces were working to keep the Keep's corruption at bay, she required the aid of capable adventurers.[173] She knew well the threat it posed, but she did not quell any of the wide-spread, exagerrated rumors that spread, to ensure that only the brave and capable would have to face Hellgate Keep.[174] She met them in her personal wing of the High Palace of Silverymoon, within the newly-added Peers' Hall. Alongside her were a few members of her court and, importantly, King Harbromm of Citadel Adbar, one of her Peers on Luruar's council, and there she bestowed upon the adventurers a variety of magical items to help them in their duty. One was a Mythanthar's Orb, which served to seal the evil beneath Hellgate Keep, as well as an amulet each, shaped like the head of a unicorn. These, if the command word, "Lurue", was spoken and the amulet pulled off of its chain, teleported their user directly outside of Silverymoon's Hunters' Gate. Despite the importance of the task, she did not wish her agents any undue harm, and so was ready to pay them handsomely for any recovered artifacts, information, or maps they made, duties beyond just slaying monsters.[173]

The fledgling Luruar demanded so much of her attention that, on Tarsakh 22 of the same year, Alustriel resigned her position as a Harper. Through a small, illusiory copy of herself, carried atop a disk, she announced to her fellow Master Harpers, while they met in Twilight Hall, that being a member would conflict with her responsibilities to the people of the North and demoted herself to, at most, an ally of Those Who Harp.[175] Her departure only worsened the chaos of the Harper Schism.[176]

Alustriel fullbody

Over her many years, Alustriel's gaze never stopped watching over all of the North's civilized peoples.

Later in the year, as of the 30th of Nightal, she was already known as the Lady Hope of Luruar and as its Queen.[17] A few months prior, she asked Drizzt Do'Urden to compile a thorough report on the Underdark,[82] not only to gather information on Blingdenstone and whether it could potentially become a member of the Alliance of Silverymoon,[17] a proposition brought forth by the dwarven Peers which Alustriel cautiously supported,[177] but also to track the dangers that festered below the lands of the North.[17]

At some point in the Year of Wild Magic, 1372 DR,[145] visions interrupted Alustriel's bath, causing her to shoot up in pain and Taern in alarm.[178] Though she soon calmed down and returned to the pool's depths, Alustriel had seen her own memories, those of her prayer alongside Taern on the night that Mystra was destroyed, as well as those of others, all from that same period in time.[147]

During the final Rage of Dragons of 1373 DR, Alustriel was directly involved in the defense of her Silver Marches. When the Song dragon Taraunramorlamurla succumbed to the thrall of the Dracorage on her way to Silverymoon, it was the Bright Lady who returned her to her home in Waterdeep. From there, the pair worked alongside Laeral to retrieve other Waterdhavian dragons, and though they failed to save a handful of wyrms, most were brought back with only minor consequences, which put them all into the two Sisters' debt.[179] In the Marches proper, Alustriel intervened when Deszeldaryndun Silverwing and his mate, Valamaradace, turned their violence onto eachother, an act that earned her their fealty when they both swore to protect the nation of Luruar.[180][181] Though she kept it from the dragon, the Lady Hope later made Valamaradace her heir.[181]

After the Spellplague[]

It was believed that Alustriel died at some point following the Spellplague,[182] but, in fact, she and Laeral hid among the monks of Candlekeep to prepare for the destruction of the library's wards. In doing so, they were attempting to prevent anyone from utilizing them to wrest control over the Weave.[183]

In 1487 DR, Larloch foiled their plans and absorbed the wards.[184] Shortly thereafter, Alustriel, Laeral, Elminster, and the Srinshee prevented Larloch's ascension to godhood.[185] This group, without the Shrinshee but with the addition of Storm and Amarune Whitewave, later encountered the restored Mystra as her Chosen.[28]

In the time after her reappearance and the Second Sundering, Alustriel did not contact Silverymoon. Even her son, and current High Mage of the City, Lord Methrammar Aerasumé, did not hear from her, despite the rumors that began to reach the city of the former High Lady's activities in the Southern Lands.[186]

Rumors & Legends[]

Few details were known about Alustriel and the other Chosens' combat against Sammaster, known as the Battle of the Chosen, purely due to the sheer scope of their conflicting powers.[128] As of 1370 DR,[118] Alustriel had suggested that some of the Evermoors' barren hills were caused by their fight, and it was rumored that, even then, at least one of the Chosen must have actively concentrated on weakening the battle's effect on the Weave and the land itself. It is suspected, due to her injured state and her love for the North, that this was Alustriel's role.[128]

Though the full extent of her age was not public knowledge, as of 1365 DR, it was rumored that Alustriel must have been centuries old,[110] and only five years later, it was known she was of at least two-hundred years old.[91] Similarly, though it was Elué who was credited with inventing the Moonbridge of Silverymoon, certain people believed that Alustriel was inspired by the ghostly, magical bridges of Dawngleam to create it.[187] It was also once rumored that the half-elf Fetitia Ledora of Everlund, one of the two founders of the second Sisterhood of the Silver Fire, was her daughter, which would have made her the eldest known of Alustriel's children.[34]

Despite the threat posed to the North by the dragon Klauth, certain rumors suggested that he chose to trade information to Alustriel rather than face her directly, and, in exchange, they struck a bargain to mutually leave one another undisturbed.[109][188][189][190] However, during the early period of Luruar's creation in 1370 DR,[118] it was believed that another dragon, the dracolich Saurglyce, planned to work alongside the Cult of the Dragon to assassinate the Lady Hope or threaten her fledgling settlements.[191]

In sharp contrast to her general reputation, among people who distrusted magic and those who wielded it by extension, it was ignorantly thought that Lady Hope, alongside other powerful mages such as Khelben Blackstaff and Elminster, would gather at Ironfang Keep to decide the fate of all Faerûn.[192]

Notes[]

  1. Page 114 of "A Grand Tour of the Realms" writes instead that Alustriel is a 22nd-level Mage, as do pages 22 of the City of Splendors "Campaign Guide" and 56 of Hall of Heroes. Given that most sources, as cited, corroborate the higher level, this is the one displayed.
  2. In Starless Night, Alustriel is instead described as being half a foot taller that Catti-brie on p. 67, making the Bright Lady 6 ft 0 in (180 cm). However, later mention on p. 101 of The Orc King again says that Alustriel is only nearly six feet tall, as does page 16 of the Heroes' Lorebook, corroborating the slightly-lesser height.
  3. Though Crown of Fire claims To Harp and to Help was written in the Year of the Deep Moon, that being 1294 DR, the Candlekeep Collection suggests instead a writing date of 1271 DR, with the latter year being when Alustriel wrote her addendum to the original book.
  4. Spellfire, on page 198 of chapter 11, also attributed A Harper's Song to Alustriel, and set its publication in 1284 DR. However, the later-published The Leaves of Learning and Candlekeep Collection suggested instead that it was written by her sister, Storm, and that it was unknown which year the book was penned.
  5. Page 15 of the Cult of the Dragon sourcebook says instead that it was Khelben who aided Alustriel alongside Laeral.
  6. Page 34 of The Code of the Harpers instead suggests that Alustriel was preoccupied with her duties in the North when Laeral was broken free from the Crown of Horns' control. However, it intimates that this was because she and Storm were rescuing Silverymoon from Shallos Ethenfrost and the orc horde, an event that had already taken place nearly one-hundred years prior.
