Virelyndra - The Planetar
They say she walks the warzones no other angels will tread. Where divine light fails, she rises — not as mercy, but as reckoning. Her sword doesn’t burn. It grows.
Role in Its Society:
Planetars are generals among celestials — divine tacticians who wage heaven’s wars and intervene when entire regions tip toward ruin. But Virelyndra is something else: a sacred purifier of corrupted places. She is called when the land is poisoned, when nature has been perverted by necromancy, industry, or eldritch blight.
To many celestials, she is an unsettling ally — draped in loam and shadow, she wields restoration like a blade. The mortal faithful call her the Green Angel, or in fearful whispers, the Sword of Soil, for wherever her blade strikes, nature erupts in violent rebirth.
She walks in places long abandoned by the gods — bringing light not to comfort, but to reclaim.
Appearance Description:
Virelyndra towers in jade armor grown from living bark-veined steel, engraved with motifs of vines, roots, and thorns. Her skin glows faintly green, almost bioluminescent in the dark, and her white wings are dusted with moss and spore. A faint scent of petrichor and ozone follows her.
Her sword — Elaranth, the Rootblade — is a massive, leaf-bladed greatsword of glassy emerald light that hums with the heartbeat of creation. Her eyes burn with radiant mosslight, and a delicate, thorned circlet of glowing vines hovers just behind her brow like a natural halo.
Backstory:
Born of a divine convergence between Verda – Goddess of Land and Agriculture and Karma – Goddess of Justice and Balance, Virelyndra was never meant to be a Planetar. She was grown, not forged, during the Age of Creation.
Her first act was to purge the Ashcrowned Grove, a cursed forest where corrupted dryads devoured memories instead of flesh. She wept after every battle, not for her enemies — but for what they had once been.
Now she walks across planes, appearing only when rot defiles the divine order — and when those who protect nature have failed.
