Quick Journal Notes:

Personality

Yraveil is a very old Stygian who is obsessed with restoring herself and her realm to its former glory. She is a vengeful, hateful, spiteful creature, and has a cunning and calculating nature. She values very little other than herself and her collections.

On the surface she wears a beautiful glamour (the 'stars on the surface of her kingdom's ocean'), but beneath Yraveil is a creature of darkness and nothingness, and this can slip through the cracks in her facade whenever she's emotional or stressed.

She has an obsessive-destructive streak and is a collector of irreplaceable things that once belonged to those who were whole, happy, and loved - in a way she never can be. She holds a deep loathing (and fixation) on the Dream realm.

Past

During the Great War, Yraveil was once a very wicked and very powerful Stygian that collected the tails of Treatlings she had destroyed. She was eventually targeted by the Royal Assassin of the Treatling Monarchy for her crimes against the Dream Realm (and her crimes against its people).

Though the fight between them was long, Yraveil emerged the victor, just barely. Because Stygian are beings of magical aether, they can survive much more bodily harm than you or I, though it greatly weakens them. Yraveil had sustained such injury that she dwindled to only a tithe of her former power and terrible majesty, and her once endless realm shrank to nothing more than a pool of water.

Much of her collection was lost during this time except for her most prized possession: the heart of the very Treatling who had so grievously wounded her. This she keeps on her person, in the hollow of her chest where her own heart might have once been, and she guards it very jealously. For even though her realm may one day be restored, and her power regained, the wound she sustained will never fully heal - and the Treatling's heart will always serve as a bitter reminder.
