RP Hooks

Magisters: Did your character go to mage school with Coriene? Are they magisters together?

Silvermoon Nobility: Sin'dorei nobility is a social game, so anyone from a major or minor house may have encountered Cori at any number of social gatherings. Nobles of other species may also have made contact with her - she likes wide networks.

Arcane: Cori would not let politics prevent her from consulting with other mages on something arcane and interesting.

Appearance

Coriene Bloodsong has long, flowing red hair, eyes with the usual green glow of the sin'dorei, and fair skin. She's considered to be beautiful by many of her peers, and she knows it.

Coriene moves with a quiet confidence that is just as comfortable with praise as it is with fading into the background. She pays attention to fashion without being particularly flashy, and keeps herself perfectly groomed at all times.

Personality

Proud - Nerdy - Ambitious - Introverted

Coriene is highly aware of her societal standing and her family's prestige. She's accustomed to getting what she wants, and she typically knows what strings to pull or favors to call in to make something happen. She's as social as she needs to be to get things done, and generally does not prefer to be the center of attention. She is very difficult to shock.

On the professional side, she is very serious about her arcane studies, and is prone to getting intensely absorbed into her current focus. She enjoys working in solitude - other people do not make her nervous, exactly, but they can be so exhausting.

This character can be romanced.

+ Romancing Cori

Coriene can be interested in any gender, but is unlikely to be interested in non-sin'dorei partners unless they have something aside from affection to offer her. She can be romanced casually or seriously.

Casually, Coriene is a little more discreet about liaisons than some sin'dorei nobility, but she does engage in discreet casual hookups. She's unlikely to confide much of herself, her life or her feelings in a casual lover, and might come across as a little cold. She is most likely to engage in casual relationships to extract something (e.g. information) from the other person.

In terms of serious romance, she is still likely to come across as a little cold and calculating, but it's a shell covering softer feelings. In serious romance, she is very likely to fall for a person who is not strategically advantageous and then try to make up reasons for herself why they actually are. She would seek monogamy emotionally and physically. She is attracted to people who are principled, confident, physically strong, independent and unambitious. She is unlikely be attracted to people who are strategic-minded, charismatic, mercurial or unkind.

History

Coriene Bloodsong is the oldest daughter of a long-established noble house in Silvermoon. Her parents, and their parents, and their parents were in the Magisters organization, and so is Coriene. She took to arcane studies with a natural talent that has seen her through to earning the title of Magistrix, and she has at this point surpassed her parents' reputation in the organization. This may in part be due to the fact that she is deeply interested in power, arcane or otherwise, and she does not neglect the part that can come from a well-cultivated social network. She is also a member of the Crimson Coterie, which she sees as yet another avenue towards power.

In her personal life, Coriene has not been so lucky in recent years. Her parents survived the Third War, but her father came dangerously close to becoming Wretched. Her mother largely retreated from public life to help him and keep it from becoming a scandal, and they left the leadership of the House to Cori. Her little sister Elivia, once an embarrassing smudge on the family name, recently became a blood knight and then was killed in action in the Plaguelands. Coriene is determined that the family will survive these minor setbacks and thrive in the cutthroat game of sin'dorei noble houses.

During the campaign in Northrend, Coriene was frustrated by the political orchestrations that led Quel'thalas to take part. She ultimately went to Dalaran to work alongside the Kirin Tor, with the intention of keeping an eye on the Sunreavers situation on behalf of the Magisters of Silvermoon. She took part in various military actions with the Kirin Tor, including the fight against Malygos and the Old God in Ulduar.

Now that the war against the Lich King is concluded, she is once more based in Silvermoon, though she is attempting to keep the links established during the war open. She is deeply frustrated by the recent behavior of the orcs and the forsaken, and regrets that Quel'thalas is bound by their reliance on the other Horde nations.

Relationships

Colleagues

Archmage Harrow

Archmage Harrow A quel'dorei mage in the Kirin Tor. Coriene does not think poorly of her.

Spellbond

Spellbond A blind human mage in the Kirin Tor. She may have interesting books in her library.

Lady Aro'Ephel

Lady Aro'Ephel Coriene joined her mercenary company. It seemed to be rising in prestige, and it's good to get into these things early.

Gethennis

Gethennis Coriene finds him charming, but also a little too strict in his views of magic for her tastes.

Telemancer Whittle

Telemancer Whittle A bright human mage in the Kirin Tor. Someone who is likely worth working with, though she seems a little timid to Coriene's sensibilities.

Useful and Interesting

Roper

Roper Syarra's partner death knight. He's wary, but Coriene is confident she can use him and Syarra to turn the Ebon Blade into more reliable allies for the Magisters.

Sunstrike the Deader

Sunstrike the Deader The older Sunstrike girl, now a death knight. Coriene feels confident she can maneuver Syarra into making death knights more reliable allies for the Magisters.

Interesting

Sunstrike the Smaller

Sunstrike the Smaller This was Coriene's little sister's best friend. She was a bad influence. Now she is a demon hunter, but she is being annoyingly resistant to letting Coriene learn about it.

Briyanthe

Briyanthe A noble girl, but from a declining house. Very cute, though, and so earnest.

Caelidhra

Caelidhra A very talented mage, but hard to track down. Really, one can only speak with her when she chooses to appear.

Ephemel

Ephemel Coriene went to school with her before she decided to become a warlock, for whatever reason.

Ranneowyn

Ranneowyn Coriene gets a sense of opportunity concerning the talented dancer. It would require more study.
