Edæa Æðelynnymya (born Edæa Syrel, 17.01.1993) is a Kouralian adventurer, priestess, and monster hunter who joined the Order of Vigilants of Mystria during it's 2019 recruitment drive.
Early Life
Edæa was born to a joiner and his unemployed partner in the Southern Kouralian city of Vyſægher. Early in life her parents split and she had a number of male figures in her life before she was ten - many of whom were known to the City Watch for anti-social behaviour and misdemeanours, as was her mother. When she was two a younger brother Rhyſyart was born.
As she finished primary schooling she began to show signs of similar anti-social behaviour, and was saved from arrest only by her age. Her Mother's behaviour similarly deteriorated, and she was repeatedly visited by the City Watch and Provincial Children's Services in relation to the quality of care received by Edæa and her brother.
In 2003, at the age of 11 she and her brother were taken into care by the state shortly after starting secondary education. This was because their birth mother and only suitable living relative was arrested and imprisoned for Child Neglect and being concerned in the supply of narcotics. Edæa was moved between a number of care homes as her behaviour continued to deteriorate and they found it difficult to manage her behaviour. At 14 she received a conviction for Assault and Criminal Damage following failure by less formal measures to curb destructive tendencies.
However the court imposed a requirement to engage with local charities and groups who could provide counselling, constructive activities and direction to the lives of young people. There she met Anyæl Æðelynn, a priest of XYZ and husband of Herenhaal Hundred councillor Derelæ Æðelynn. His influence drove Edæa to immerse herself in the Æhrycredan faith and the sub-cultures of the Feivienas. Over a few short years Edæa's descent into criminality was halted, as she became more and more devout a follower of the Æhrycreda. She continued to grow close to the Æðelynn family and acted as an informal novice at Anyæl's temple during services, along with accompanying him on expeditions to resolve Fae-disputes. In March 2008, when she was 16 the Æðelynn family began to foster her alongside their older daughter, Amyna.
On her 18th birthday in 2010, Edæa was formally adopted by Anyæl Æðelynn and took the name Æðelynnymya.
Religious Career
In September 2009, at the age of 16 Edæa was accepted as a Junior Novice by her local Collegiate Sacrorum
Order of Vigilants
In early 2019 Edæa joined the Mystrian Order of Vigilants. The organisation had been greatly expanded after analysis of the increased intensity and frequency of megafauna appearances across D'hɑlbrisir and the wider continent suggested that the issue was going to continue to degenerate. To counter this, the Great Civilisation of the C'tan had identified a need for dedicated monster hunters who owed little allegiance to political figures or nations who could root out and destroy such monsters where they were found.
She explained this decision to the XYZ as because she wished to spread the word of the
