Early Life

Born in Cormen Calacoirëa, (lit. Place of Living Light), Alassë has the distinction, along with many of her kin, of being born on two worlds, as the city is present both on the surface of Arda (Earth) and on Eärendil (Venus), although at the time of her birth the Venus location of the city was protected by a thick glass dome to protect it from the planet's atmosphere. Her older sister Thindamallë proceeded her and her childhood was largely without incident.

Artificer

Alassë achieved some noteriety as an artificer particularly in the traditional Noldorin craft of jewelsmithing, this craft uses both natural mined gems and synthetic ones of various sorts, of these one of the best known is Laën, a substance composed of a single string crystalline lattice that grows harder the hotter it is but can be worked like metal at ultra-cool temperatures. Considered a difficult field to master this traditional crafting technique involves both physical crafting and enchantment.

Military Career

Due to the Ardan conflicts caused by the Morgothic crisis, Alassë enlisted in the Menelmacari Imperial Defense Forces (MIDF) a career with the final rank of Roquen, broadly equivalent to an air-force captain in most militaries, and served in multiple roles, most directly as a pilot of Loki-gunships including bombing missions during Operation Roundhammer and transport and firefighting missions during Operation Iesus Christi Patriot Support.

Explorer

After the Ardan conflicts ended and the size of the MIDF was downscaled, Alassë decided to put her new skills to use in a side-business, and travelled to the Revenant Worlds within the Great Civilization of the C'tan to study the artefacts of the ruined cultures there. During this time she became the de-facto leader of a fellowship of explorers.
