Biography[]

Early life[]

Leeli was born to Esben Wingfeather and Nia Helmer in the year 442 of the Fourth Epoch. From the very beginning of her life, she lived in Castle Rysen, where she was born.

Great War[]

Some time during the year that Leeli was born, Anniera was invaded by Gnag the Nameless and his Fangs of Dang. Leeli and her family managed to escape the burning Castle Rysen, but not at the cost of her leg. The Wingfeathers crossed the Dark Sea of Darkness and arrived in Skree, where they lived for nine years under the surname "Igiby", the children's grandmother Wendolyn Igiby Helmer's surname.

Wingfeather War[]

For nine years, the Wingfeathers lived in the Igiby Cottage in Glipwood Township. On the day of the Dragon Day Festival in Glipwood, Leeli's dog Nugget ran away. When Leeli found him in the grip of a Fang, she whacked it with her crutch and kicked it, albeit the crutch was destroyed in the process. Her brothers, Janner and Tink, noticed she was gone when they heard her scream. They came to her aid, when suddenly, two rocks were thrown by the ridgerunner Zouzab which knocked out the two Fangs terrorizing the children.

They returned home where they told Podo what had happened. Podo called Leeli "Lizardkicker" before he and Nia moved to another room to discuss the events while the children ate cheesy chowder.

Leeli and her family travelled to the Ice Prairies to escape the Fangs when they learned that their father was a king and they were royalty. The Fangs still found them in Kimera so they ventured on to the Green Hollows. While they were sailing, Yurgen came to eat Podo so Leeli played 'Yurgen's Tune' to calm the dragon. They got there safely in the end.

During the war in the Green hollows, Leeli connected with her brothers and played her whistleharp to fight off the fangs in Ban Rona.

This summary of Leeli's life is unfinished. You can help this wiki by finishing it.

Personality & traits[]

Leeli is a excellent musician with her ability to empathize with others and spiritually bind with those of the Annieran bloodline when she performs.

She especially loves dogs, hence why she joined the Houndry Guild while living in Ban Rona.

(However, Chapter 2 of On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness states that her right leg is twisted.)
