Name: Ilu Hi'Dru (Pronounced, He-Drew)

Sexuality: Unknown

Age: 426 years, born in 2634, April 6th

Gender: Female

Race: Dark Elf

Occupation: Sempriss (Sempriss = Highborn Broker)

Clan/Origin: Hi'Dru family line, Ilu is presumed the last alive

Family: Ilu's family died out eventually through the centuries with the wars involving the High Elf and Vatorian species.

Appearance: Ilu stands at the slightly taller than average height of 1.8 meters (5 foot 11 inches); her skin is of a pale purple tint though looking smooth and soft to the touch. Her midnight black hair is medium length and has the right strands falling over her shoulder above her chest; meanwhile the left is behind her shoulder and is down to her upper back. Her eyes are a crimson red colour with the obvious pupil in the centre. Her facial features are heavily feminine, thin chin, high cheekbones and thin overall face though having beautiful and appealing features. Her lips are a near violet; her ears are lightly outward as they point back. Her figure is of a thin though very feminine shape, not so wide hips but still appealing to most, her arms and legs have some muscle but cannot be seen unless up close and due to the fact of her not wearing clothing that would reveal skin, even if it just reveals shoulders. Her hands have the Hi'Dru markings upon them, marking her as a Sempriss, a symbol forgotten over the centuries and disappearing Semprisses. She also has another marking on her back, signifying she has some sort of link to a dead insignia or cult, starting from the back of her left shoulder, lowering down and reaching near the small of her lower back.

Clothing/Armor: Ilu herself prefers to remain hidden; hence, her obsession of wearing robes and hoods to do just that conceal herself when needed. Her robes occasionally consist of dark colours, such as black, purple, maroon and sometimes teal. Her overrobe usually falls to her ankles; the arms are usually loose and covered, wearing rich lace gloves to hide the markings, leaving only her thumb, index finger and her middle fingers showing. The hood does well to conceal her face, leaving only her mouth and chin visible. Underneath the overrobe, she wears a long black dress falling to above her lower legs, occasionally black lace stockings, matching black heels and a dark violet waistcoat due to her dress having a V-cut about the chest, though still modest, she prefers to remain all hidden.

As for armor, she rarely fights in person, being the deceptive person she is, business and cunning is her way instead of direct fighting. However, she is not foolish and takes precaution; she would usually have a lightly plated cuirass, leggings and boots just in case. Her cuirass, being as it is, is usually coloured with dark colours, mostly black, red and dark violet, including the insignia for her specific line of work, it has small shoulder plates rounding out atop her shoulders, a belt across the chest to the left side of the waist and a set of knives going across it.

Abilities: Ilu has access to a rather vast knowledge of necromancy and death aurum, not to mention a very useful way to control a group of Dark Paladin's or just a singular one. With the click of her fingers, she can kill them, and how may be asked, the markings on her hands enable this control over such aurum; it destroys the soul of the chosen target Ilu is looking to once her fingers click.

Skills: Ilu is somewhat known for being very persuasive and crafty with her words and actions, she upholds her title sake to push the balance towards her favour or get access to something she should not or never possess. Her words can be like honey to others, she has strong willpower and cunning which is surprisingly unnatural for her specie as a whole, she has a wide network of 'employee's' and whatnot about many places of importance, to her at least.

Items: She carries a holo-tool for distant contacting and other purposes, she also has a small ceremonial dagger, of course, it cannot be used to kill unless in an extremely desperate situation. She also has a small satchel of medicinal herbs and whatnot, just in case.

Weapons: Hidden under the overrobe on her left arm is a wrist-mounted rapid firing gun using 8mm bullets firing at 200rpm (rounds per minute), on her belt she has a sheathed katana for more up close and personal issues.

Personality: Ilu is a deceptive and cunning person; she uses those to get her own way and any means necessary, she shows no mercy, no remorse or any weak looking emotion, hence why she is as powerful as she is. To many her identity is nearly completely unknown, even Riza does not know she is a manipulative Sempriss. She uses others to do her dirty work, never really handling matters herself unless things are bad.

Bio: Ilu was born on a Dark Elven colony perhaps on the border on the races systematic territory, the planet was Bavenia 3. A rather expansive city was were she was brought up, her mother and father of course died in the war with the Vatorian's so she had most of her live living alone and growing up alone, well, at first in an orphanage, then going her own way by the time she reached 50 years old. During her teen years, from 50 to 100, she had gained the strange liking of using people. It all started when she ordered soldiers originally working for her mother, to scout about her family's lands, she just grinned as she watched them go.

Ever since this, she has always had the knack of manipulation and deceit; it was as if it was in her blood, so natural did this come to her dark mind. During her first century of age, she had managed to gather a somewhat, reasonable amount of resources, but not enough to manage her potential plan set in mind and near future ahead. Her plan is rather simple yet surprisingly difficult to achieve, control the most important areas and manipulate the leaders into getting what she requires for her image of her supposedly thought new world.

However, it was not all easy going, she has had some stops here and there, but nothing major for now at least, so it was still an ongoing plan from this point on. At her mid 2nd century, she had successfully, as well as, indirectly had control over a few cities on the homeworld of the Dark Elves. But she thought this was nowhere near enough for her 'lust' for power and against the point of order, for she saw the worst of what her specie had to offer, she thought she was doing the right thing by changing the hands of who controls what, and what is controlled by whom.

But her plans where obviously well thought out, she spent hours, days and even months setting this plan out, from point A to B, she managed to gather these people, paid of course, to do the dirty work for her, she simply 'convinced' them to do this for her. She even had an Emperor assassinated in the process, killed thousands of people at the hands of her mighty Dark Paladin's and more. Going to her 3rd century of age, she had by now, convinced a large number of politicians, ambassador's and even leaders, that her task in mind was the right choice to make, turning brother against brother, families against families, she caused havoc and chaos amongst several clans of the Dark Elves, and it was all her doing.

As crafty as she is, others never outdid her, she always had a backup plan no matter the subject, she would do anything for her task, but never following the rules of order to get what she wanted. Causing chaos for her enemies was her favourite 'pass time' as it were. Several clans were badly focused on other things, even causing the remaining people leave and go to other clans for aid and safe haven, but alas, the other clans did not like this idea much, as they killed or imprisoned the remaining survivors of this bitter rivalry, for it were several of the options and least merciful.

Ilu had a smile across her dark lips as her ears and eyes, the people she had working for her, she was told her plans succeeded, they almost always did in the end. Then came her toughest plan, she had her eyes set on the throne itself, of course, not as would be thought by others. She works indirectly as said before, it involves a specific emperor named, Craig Arun'Shallok, a rather strong minded but cautious man who rules with an iron fist but at least he keeps those in line, little crime was there in the capital of the homeworld where he is stationed in.

In the year 3040, Ilu managed to have the emperor Craig captured and sent far away so he could not rule the specie with his iron fist and smart idealistic mind, she even had his wife, Naomi murdered. All that Ilu had to do was to use her manipulation to convince the advisors and bodyguards to do the convincing to the youngest and only daughter of Craig and Naomi, Nightsong, to do their bidding. Unfortunately, it worked, she is so young and naïve, made to believe that her advisors words were true and the best to listen to, Ilu was happy, her plan, her best and most thought out plan, had been set in motion, she had gained access to a vast amount of resources from her specie, now currently using them as her own.

Doing more of her dirty work within the A.M.F, even having loyal servant guards within the base on Sharda, her eyes and ears making sure no one is catching on to her deceptive motive, she is a cold hearted woman who will do anything and kill anyone, in her way to get what she wants, power and control.

Extra: Ilu is most certainly without a doubt, the last of the Semprisses, but she is also the most successful and dangerous to ever live throughout the centuries of their so-called, line of work. She has hardly ever failed in her task at hand, never once been caught directly and has hardly been noticed or seen as such in public, she knows its wise to stay in the shadows and background whilst your lackeys do the dirty work for you, so long as she pays them well for their services, she may even get more than she bargained for. Since her line of work requires planning and patience, she is such one of a kind, underestimated in occasion can cause harm to others, others should know never to take her lightly thanks to her knowledge and deadly words.
Ilu Hi'Dru, one of the deadliest and most cunning Dark Elves to ever live in the Darkshard universe, her mastermind plans have hardly failed, she is without a shadow of a doubt, a force to be reckoned with.
