Lore

A consummate political operator, Loremaster Jayawardene was well on her way to becoming the most important member of the Twelve, the council of elders who govern all Drakken affairs, when a moment of carelessness ended her ambitions. Found guilty of altering a sacred Endless artefact in order to support the position of a Drakken sub-group named the Revitalists, Jayawardene was thrown from the Council of the Eyrie--literally.

Tumbling from the tower, Jayawardene opened her wings and soared far from the Drakken's first city, Nahar Tereth, only coming to land when she was many leagues away. Livid with herself, she spent the better part of a year walking Auriga filled with hurt and disappointment, before she recognized the truth of her nature: Her first--and only--calling wasn't love or duty; it was power. And she didn't care where she found it.
