Backstory:

Ocean was 14 when she watched both of her parents die because she was a half breed. Her father ran Starsguild, the group who protected people like her, as well as those with magic, from the war. When her parents died, she also was severely hurt. Her left eye was blinded, her wing, arm, and leg were all severely injured, rendered practically useless. She learned to cope with it as she tried to care for her younger sister, Isla, who was 4 at the time. Eventually, she admitted that she needed something more to fix her injuries. She contacted a well-known inventor and engineer who specializes in cybernetics for such severe injuries. Oceanlight never knew her name... but her work made it so much easier for Ocean, and she was able to care for Isla. At least until Isla was 12, since Isla knew some friends who'd help her. (Nuri, son of the moon goddess, and Sunspark, the sweetest larynx on the planet) Ocean was torn away from her sister by Starsguild, because she became the new General at age 22. She was considered young for the role, but she earned their trust quickly, and became one of the best leaders of Starsguild since her ancestor Luma Stormsfire. She became close friends with Andi and Nyx (daughter of Zapprudus). Her goal was to stop the wars so Isla would be safe, but when she learned of Darkar, who killed her parents, she did want revenge..but she soon learned that peace would be the answer. She learned of a sword of her father's, Shadow. Her goal was to find it, thus her title, Shadow Stalker...but in the meantime, she had her blue sword that her mother had given her, a sword that seemed to be made of water AND metal. This was her Mentalian...Aerowa, one of the few Mentalians who could change their shape...Aerowa doesn't speak much to others, only speaking to give insightful advice to anyone but Ocean.

Oceanlight had regretted when Andi left, but she knew he had to take time away. However, when Nyx had left a few months before, she had been confused but not surprised. After all...Nyx was daughter of Zapprudus.

While Andi was away, Oceanlight had found a young larynx boy in Ebonstall, Starsguild's main base. It turned out his father had died, and he never met his mother. Ocean immediately felt empathy for this little boy, and offered to take him in. His name was Dusk. Ocean, the sassy commander, cared for him deeply, treating him like her younger brother. She took time out of her duties to care for him and help him settle in with Starsguild. She was part mother (or sister)/Commander of Starsguild.

Before Akita was found, Oceanlight had been at the edge of despair. She had lost many members, the wars seemed to be worse, and Darkar was always two steps ahead. Ebonstall, Starsguild's base, was lost. Darkar took control. Things were looking bad. However, when Akita was found, Andi and Nyx both back, and an alliance with SSG, she had relaxed a little, relieved. Her duties were hard, for sure, but her people stood a chance. Though..she got news that her sister had disappeared. Oceanlight panicked, but continued to wait, worrying, hoping her sister was safe, wherever she went. (To Flarosa, with the Pink larynx, and with the gods lol. I'd say Isla was quite safe)

The duties pressed down on Ocean once more. Thus were the duties of the eldest of the family AND general.

"I might be general, but that doesn't make me heartless, you know. Despite what their ridiculous 'Shadowstalker' nonsense would lead you to believe, I do have the refreshing light of insight."

(Experimenting with colors 👍)
