Author's Foreword: This profile will be updated as Esmira's story continues to unfold and she develops relationships with more characters. I recommend that while you look over her profile you listen to some of the music that has been provided. Just look for the music notes! Also, I would provide an in-game image of her character model, but my PC has horrible graphics and it really isn't worth the hassle. Critique is welcome on what has been written, as well as any suggestions you may have about how I can develop her further. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Esmira is a deeply spiritual and emotionally intuitive woman. She is somewhat of a breathing paradox in that she is a "people person" who doesn't care for the company of most people. Indeed, Esmira tends to be very selective in her choice of friends, although this has resulted in the perception of her as shy or socially inept by most about Elden Root. When it comes to those whom Esmira does deem worthy of friendship, she is a fiercely loyal companion who will go out of her way to encourage and support. Some of the time, Esmira may do this in ways that they may not like or understand.
Although she tends to be reticent in larger groups, she can be quite the conversationalist when given the chance to talk with someone alone. She enjoys dry, ironic, and satirical humour—usually aimed at the Altmer of Summerset. Esmira holds fond memories of a childhood where one of her favorite jests was to march about imperialistically while proclaiming each of her friends to be uncivilized and savage. Most of the Bosmeri children understood this to be a farcical presentation of Altmer demeanor. Just as much as her personality is characterized by the need to socialize with certain individuals, she also is prone to isolating herself from others during times of emotional unease.
Using her own personal system of values and morals, Esmira navigates through her everyday issues, usually prioritizing the protection of her homeland, culture, and family in all things. Like most of the Bosmeri, one of Esmira's most defining personality traits is her remarkable connection to the natural world. However, the manner in which this trait manifests differs somewhat due to the fact that Esmira tends to be much more militant in her belief. She is intensely suspicious of the other races' motives to point that she straddles the line between suspicion and racism.
A Bosmeri traditionalist, Esmira prefers to stray from the touch of the outside world, which she considers toxic to the Bosmer's fundamental values. In this regard, she finds the Aldmeri Dominion somewhat distasteful, although she has concealed it well enough.
Esmira is a fairly thin woman, standing 5'4" at full height. She is willow-like with lithe appendages yet a sturdy axial frame. Sporting an hour-glass figure, Esmira's body is desirable by most standards. Her hips are rather wide, and she has trained her waist through the use of corsets to be more slightly more compact than it would be naturally, which only makes her hips appear larger through contrast. Her breasts are well-balanced, although they would appear lacking on another woman's body. On Esmira, they tend to be ample considering her smaller frame.
Her facial shape is that characteristic of the Bosmeri people: slightly angular, high cheekbones, and curved eyes. Even for a Bosmer, however, Esmira's chin is exceptionally pointed, and her eyes are of a dark green variant. This, in addition to her auburn hair, makes her exceptionally exotic among the Wood Elves. Her facial features most likely would not be considered desirable by human standards, yet many men among the Bosmeri have sought her hand to no avail.
Masser and Secunda were perched peacefully above the night that Esmira Oakenwreath was born, a child with bright aspirations destined for a dark path. In the tree tops of Elden Root, Esmira was received by a starry-eyed Bosmeri couple, Thanoril and Sehanin. The first child was always an exciting milestone, and the pair was more than overjoyed to begin this new chapter in their life.
Evening Star, and many more months in quick succession, drew to swift closes. Growing up, Esmira was a normal and happy child by most standards. She enjoyed exploring the forests around Elden Root, playing games with the other children, and pestering drunkards as they went to and fro on their path to the tavern. Quickly, she revealed herself to be a mischevious and adroit child, often playing pranks on her peers.
She held certain privileges over other village children, hailing from the House Oakenwreath, one of the noble houses that acted as advisors to King Camoran Aeradan. Living on the uppermost platforms of the Elden Root graht-oak, Esmira grew up alongside people who were to become the founders and facilitators of the Aldmeri Dominion. For a long time, Thanoril tried to induct Esmira into the world of the politics, but conversing with dull dignitaries and appeasing arid ambassadors simply did not appeal to the girl.
Instead, Esmira became increasingly insular, attempting to retain the ideals and virtues she thought her people had destroyed in the creation of the Aldmeri Dominion. While in her adolescence, Esmira began to frequently venture out into the Green unaccompanied. Even if her father insisted that she take along a ranger for protection, the girl would inevitably slip away if a close eye was not kept. The Green was the only place that Esmira felt some sense of freedom, away from the politics and banter of Elden Root.
Once, while out on one of these many sojourns in the Green, Esmira stumbled out of a thicket into the midst of a field of Spriggans. Although she had always held a deep love for the forest, Esmira had yet to encounter any actual spirits. She instantly fell to her knees, paralyzed in fear. Their emerald eyes shining delightedly at the sight of the young girl, the spriggans began to gather round the terrified girl.
For a moment, there was speculation as to the girl's intentions, but it became immediately clear that she was a non-threatening and wayward soul. Sensing her deep connection to the Green, the spriggans whispered soft and sweet things into the girl's pointed ears. Eventually, they assuaged Esmira's fears and the young Elf left the grove in a calm, yet timely, manner. However, she was to return... many times in fact.
Once more, the hands of time raced wildly across the book of life, sliding its thumb along the outer edge to feel the vastness of the pages and words within. It all raced by with the speed of a hummingbird's wing.
Sidra Dawnshade
History: Esmira and Sidra grew up alongside one another in Elden Root. Coming from similarly privileged and noble backgrounds, the girls became fast friends after being introduced by their fathers. They were particularly close while the pair were children. They have maintained a friendship over the years, growing closer as Esmira has dealt with emotional strife as of late.
