Lashana
(Shana)
Halfblood daughter of V'kass Dyran Lord Hernalth and his human concubine, Serina Death; a fiery-haired girl of both beauty and a formidable magical potential ( inherited after her father), a natural born leader. Her mother died during delivery and she was fostered by Alamarana, brought up and educated with the dragon's son - Kemanorel.
During her teens she was expelled from the Lair because of her attack on one of the Kin - Rovylern, who many times bullied Keman. She met a trade caravan led by Kel Rosten and became the property of Lord Berenel; bought by two wizards (see Rennis Draythorn, Zed) during a slave auction, she was taken to the Citadel, where she became a student of master Denelor. Due to her lack of caution while transporting herself and friends to the Citadel, she let the elves discover the building's location and thus contributed to the outbreak of the Second Wizard War.

Yet, according to Kalamadea - Father Dragon, elves, not Ander, should be blamed for the creation of this particular disease.

He escaped with Sheyrena when, after Myrenateli spread a gossip that it was Valyn, not his servant Mero, who truly was halfblood, the Council began to successively check the young elven lords by casting at them illusion-dissipating spells. With his sister he joined Lashana, with whom he fell in love, and her companions. House crest: moonbird

Maegwyn Karan

magical abilities, inheriting of
It should be noted that, apart from the fact that the human and elven magic is not similar, the inheritance of magical abilities in these two races is also considerably different.
Elven parents of poor magical ability give birth to offspring of equally feeble magic. The same rule can be applied when both parents are powerful mages. Children who have a powerful father and a mother that is poorly endowed with magical abilities (or vice-versa) are usually average mages.
For humans, on the other hand, the inheritance of magical abilities is totally random. Power may deteriorate or vanish in one generation, to return in full strength in another.
Children of mixed, elven-human parentage ( the halfbloods) are always more powerful than either parent and can wield magic associated with both races.
