Eslyn Ambertail
(Eslyn - Concept art)
A beautiful woman with a calm, intellectual impression.
She has short, wavy, light-brown bobbed hair and wears light makeup. She possesses curves that contrast with her slender shoulders and waist.
Her ceremonial attire as a retainer of Goldenhaven is an orange dress with a golden sheen. During this time, she holds a staff carved with the fox emblem of House Ambertail. Hidden inside the staff is a sword used to wield her family's secret sword techniques.
Following the elven assault, she discards her dress and changes into combat attire — a nimble outfit designed to maximize mobility, consisting of a tight-fitting romper and lace-up long boots. For weaponry, she equips the rapier hidden inside her staff, alongside a hand crossbow.
The Past and Present of the Ambertails
The Fall of the House
Eslyn is the only daughter of House Ambertail, which once ruled Amber Coast as its domain.
Thirty years ago, unable to withstand the overwhelming onslaught of beasts, House Ambertail ultimately abandoned Amber Coast and sought refuge with House Harborwell in Goldenhaven.
After fleeing to Goldenhaven, her father drowned his sorrows in liquor, lamenting his wretched fate. Her mother, consumed by the paranoid belief that everyone despised her, threw violent tantrums as she abused Eslyn.
Amidst her parents' neglect and abuse, Eslyn endured by training alone, honing the family's secret sword techniques that her father passed down to her a little at a time whenever he briefly sobered up.
Eslyn refused to break even under the weight of her crushing reality, and the one who took notice of this unyielding persistence and grit was Valdemar Harborwell, the Grand Lord of Goldenhaven.
Eslyn the Aide
Under Valdemar's patronage, Eslyn developed her talents and rose to become the Lord's Aide at a young age.
She made her name known throughout the land thanks to her brilliant resourcefulness, assisting Lord Harborwell in crushing the conspiracies of neighboring grand lords.
The sudden death of Valdemar Harborwell, whom she had looked up to as a father figure, shocked her deeply and planted a deep resentment toward the elves within her.
As an exceptional warrior capable of wielding both a rapier and a crossbow, she suppresses her grief as she spearheads the succession ceremony of the new lord, Leopold, and prepares Goldenhaven for a new era.
Bloodied Succession Ceremony
On that day, even the youngest member of the family returned after many years away from Goldenhaven for a grand succession ceremony. That was you. However, it became the day everything collapsed.
The elf Bella had severed Leopold's head, and Eslyn would have met the same fate, her life already in Bella's hands. At that critical moment, you rescued her.
Eslyn had lost every lord she had ever sworn loyalty to. Yet you, the last surviving member of the Harborwell bloodline, helped her back to her feet.
Harboring a deep-seated resentment toward the elves, Eslyn begins the fight to rebuild the House alongside you.
