![[ThorneSilverstar.png]] # Thorne Silverstar _Eladrin Archmage | [[Sharandar]]_ ## Summary An eladrin archmage and [[Yesqarin]]'s former mentor who teleported to the [[Red Wizards]]' excavation site and attempted to claim the [[Mythallar]] for [[Sharandar]]. [[Faevynn Moonflower]] reasserted her authority with [[Petra]]'s help. Later joined the alliance against the [[Dread Ring]], though his burning grief over adopted son [[Eilif Summerwind]]'s death—transformed into a wight by [[Red Wizards]] before being mercy-killed—has hardened into something dangerous. %% ## At a Glance Tall and regal with silver hair that catches impossible summer sunlight even in darkness. Luxurious robes of purple and gold shimmer with subtle patterns of flowering vines. His piercing blue eyes hold the wild intensity of a Feywild summer storm. ## Personality Cultured speech with the rhythmic quality of Summer Court poetry. Maintains perfect etiquette even when discussing inflammatory topics. Outwardly charming; privately calculating with summer's burning intensity. [[Eilif Summerwind]]'s death has shattered his faith in cooperation with lesser races. ## Quote _"We bore summer's light into winter's shadow, and yet here we stand, watching lesser beings build hovels in our twilight."_ ## Background **The Exodus:** One of the mages who created the portal to the [[Feywild]] during Iliyanbruen's fall. His best friend Caelindril Summerwind died protecting [[Sharandar]], leaving Thorne to raise infant [[Eilif Summerwind]]. **The Son:** Over centuries, Eilif grew to embody both fathers—Caelindril's bravery and Thorne's wisdom. His diplomatic nature tempered Thorne's fury at seeing human cities built atop elven ruins. **The Death:** Eilif died investigating [[Red Wizards|Red Wizard]] activities, transformed into a wight before being mercy-killed. This desecration shattered Thorne's remaining faith in cooperation. He now secretly leads the Restorationists, a movement dedicated to reclaiming elven supremacy. ## Stats **Archmage** (MM 342) with Fey Ancestry and seasonal magic themed around summer/growth. %%
