Eymeria
Some sketches of my flower person 🌸
Haven't drawn Sylvari in a long time. I felt like drawing my plant babies so I got out my sketchbook. Not a great likeness on Eymeria but it's practise after all :)
Needed to take some new reference pictures of Eymeria and took a few more. Enjoy 🌸🌺

8 and 16 for Eymeria, Lucinara and Fiene! 👀
*Sorry it took me a while to answer, tried to keep is short but it still got rather long :D
8. Do they fit well into sylvari society or are they more at home with other races? How do they feel about fellow sylvari? Do they have any particular sympathy or antipathy for other races?
Lucinara still feels very close ties to the Sylvari but also feel very at home with the Charr because of their practical approach to war. Being a Vigil Commander, Lucinara tends to get along with the other races quite well. However there's been a duality in feelings when it comes to Asura, never quite understanding them but also having admiration for their aid with technological advancement and intellect. They're used to solving things with brawn which is why they get along with Norn rather well as well. When it comes to humans they don't have a particular love for them as they often have been seen in huge betrayals, however they're useful so there's no strong feelings towards them, just discretion.
Eymeria has seen the comings and goings of every race at the Durmand Priory she discriminates no one in her line of work when out and about on the field. After all, every race is in need of healing. She strongly believes that everything has a right to grow, which includes her sympathy. Her best friend is a human and she is dearly intrigued by them. She has difficulties understanding the Charr culture but tries her best to understand their warmongering, luckily she has met Charr that do not wish to approach their life this way and she understands that there's more to them than the stereotypes depict. The Asura fascinate her but she doesn't have strong ties with them. She is highly interested by Norn, she thinks their spiritual connection to the wilds is lovely and in line with what she herself believes and it also reminds her of home. She's still strongly connected to the Sylvari through the dream and her Wyld Hunt. She's spent the last years trying to heal the Pale Tree and has spent a lot of time among her people.
Fiene isn't particularly sympathetic or asympathetic towards any of the major races, although they feel strong ties with their brothers and sisters, they rarely feel like they truly belong. Their favour is earned through artistic endeavors rather than racial characteristics, which makes every individual unique. They have developed a love for smaller races because they approach the arts differently, their favourite so far being Grawl. They haven't ventured far out of yet and have yet to visit Elona and Cantha (in which they will discover a love for Choya as well).
16. Where were they when the call of Mordremoth struck? Did they hear and follow it, or did they resist it?
Eymeria
Durmand Priory Magister/Advisor to the Commander's guild/Healer She/her. Homosexual. Single. Sprouted in 1320 AE, the year Kralkatorrik awakened. 167cm/5'5 feet tall.
Personality: Caring, Curious, Empath, Loyal, Guarded, Judgemental. Backstory: Trahearne dreamed of healing Orr, Eymeria dreamt of healing the Pale Tree. When Eymeria awakened from the dream she felt determined to learn everything there is about healing. She wandered the world to find and learn from the best healers around and eventually ended up at the Durmand Priory. With all the knowledge of the world at her feet, Eymeria decided to stay as a member of the Priory and healer to the Pact to ensure that she would be ready to fullfill her Wyld Hunt. When the Pale Mother got injured after the rise and fall of Mordremoth, Eymeria rushed to the Grove to be by her side and aid in her recovery. Years have passed and nothing has strengthened the Tree. Eymeria is feeling like she is failing her Wyld Hunt and decides to join Caithe on the path to the Janthir Wilds to find answers.
Noticable traits: 1) Healer: It seems this elementalist excels at using water magic for other purposes than combat. 2) Nurturing: Eymeria seems like the type of Sylvari you go to if you need some tender love and care. She gives off cinnamon roll vibes but in a mature way. 3) Frosty Flower: This flower resembling Sylvari sure loves the cold, snow and Wintersday.
How your character might have heard of her: Affiliated with the Durmand Priory. Used to be an advisor to the Pact Commander (when Trahearne was the Commander). Now solely focuses on healing practices and research, all those battles in Tyria sure cause a lot of injuries.
