Physical description: Dark blue tattoos on her arms stand out against Malis' pale blue skin. She has bright red eyes and more tattoos around her right eye and cheek that travel up towards her ear. One of her tusks has been broken off, the jagged edge worn down slightly showing that it happened a long time ago. Her hair is bundled into thick dreads which are adorned with chunky gold bangles at different points. They are long and reach mid to low back except where used to tie back the rest out of her face. The only jewelry she wears are two golden bracelets on each arm and a claw-and-shell necklace which the largest center claw is stained the colour of old blood. Her usual robe is in a long blue sleeveless style that is plane royal blue; the only decoration is a thin golden band around the hem. Over that she wears a red sleeveless jacked which flows down as long as her robe and is decorated in gold around the edges with a wide zigzag pattern close to the hems edge.
Personality: Malis is very wise though she chooses not to show it, preferring to act a little more dense so that others will explain things to her easier. She is a good listener and is one to go to for advice though she does have unusual ways to explain herself. Quite fun loving and very social on the surface, the troll enjoys to chat with other races to find out what makes them tic and learn new customs. Malis cannot read, she never had the desire to learn how. She can figure out certain words, however and has a spelled quill that she paid dearly for that transcribes her words onto paper. This leads to very interesting letters as it transcribes her speech patterns as well. Malis is learning how to read, a task she was given upon joining Symphony of Eternity. Malis is almost childlike in reactions, her unabated curiosity flavors all her thoughts and doings. The troll has a passion to explore and, while she can be quite suspicious around new people, once her loyalty has been won she is fiercely protective of them. This also means that if she finds someone, or some thing worthy of her attentions she will be loyal to them whether they like it or not. She is very spiritual in the respect that she believes that the Spirits are what guides her path, often letting them choose of her in cases where she cannot decide herself. It is common to see her spin around with her eyes closed and then start off in the direction she ends up facing. She does not see anything wrong with choosing this way and firmly believes that the Spirits probably know a lot better about the right decision than she, herself, does.
Combat Tactics: "Hit first, talk laters!" or "If ya can't get a hit in first; throw a few earthshocks until they be stoppin' to listen to ya!"
Phobias and Weaknesses: Malis hates the water... nothing good has ever come over it and in a respect she almost has an irrational fear of getting wet. She isn't even herself sure why she reacts in such away but, to her, all bad news has come with strong ties to water in some way, be it rain, by ocean or having to do with the rivers surrounding her. She never learnt how to swim and uses her water walking at every optional moment.
She also firmly believes that if she ever cut her hair then she would loose her strength and faith in the spirits. For this reason her hair is bound in dreads to keep it mostly out of the way. The only time she has removed one of her dreads was t give to her blood sister, Amirynth in exchange for the necklace she was given.
Pet Peeves: People who go back on their word, people who do things 'out of the good of their own heart'
Special Possessions: 'Fluffy' her axe; he is almost always by her side or in her traveling packs. Malis also has a necklace given to her by her blood sister made out of claws of the dragon they defeated and shells from the near by river. It is the only piece of 'water' Malis lets near herself as a reminder of the oath she gave that day. The center claw is stained with the mixed blood of the dragon, her own and Amirynth's, her blood sister. 'Bokbok' is her hawkstriders as a whole. If she talks about them separately the green one is lunch, the blue one is dinner and the red one was named by Rynn and called Crymsong. Malis doesn't usually differentiate, preferring to call them, and all other hawkstriders, Bokbok. She takes great care of them as they were given to her upon her acceptance into the Sin'Dorei. Her 'shinies' is her collection of crystals and other things that sparkle. She often doesn't know about what they are for, and doesn't even care if they are worthless or not, as long as they are pretty to look at.
Malis has a new 'bokbok' given to her by Peredhel who he named Bubbly. She is very grateful to him and is now one of her favorite of her mounts. Bubbly and Lunch are usually the ones she keeps around with her. Around the same time she found a mana wyrm essence in a package from Northrend addressed for Archeon. The wyrm is as yet unnamed...
Origin: Malis was born on the isle of Yojamba, the eldest of two, her sister's name is Kiowa who she still keeps in contact with. She had a pretty uneventful (which is relative) childhood where she trained under one of the most respected shaman of the Isle. One of her childhood friends trained with her named Voodoo. Later on, after they had grown old enough he tried to woo her but they had a disagreement which left things between them strained. Something she has always regretted. After he was chosen to start the path towards becoming one of the elder shaman of the village she decided to seek her fortune on the main lands. There she met another troll named Kifo and traveled around with him. They spent a few years together, even though he was older then her by quite a bit. Malis grew fiercely enamored with him and believe that he shared the same emotion in kind. She ended up pregnant and had a daughter she named Tai'jin. Traveling with a child was hard and so she settled down in a secluded spot protected from the other tribes while Kifo hunted for them until she could travel once more. A few months later he dissapeared, never to be heard from again. Malis chucked it up to his wanderlust, she had seen clues in his behavior and had tried to shrug it off. She left her daughter in the care of a troll family in Booty Bay who were on their way to live with the Darkspear trolls on the other continent. To this day she has not gone to look for her.
Malis began traveling once more, exploring every nook and cranny of the Eastern Kingdoms. Through her travels she has met many different groups of people but after an incident involving a large dragon (she tells the story differently) where she lost one of her tusks she turned her sights towards Silvermoon and the Elves of the Sin'Dorei. She gained a sister in Amirynth, a Bloodelf warlock and took on the new name of Delnaria. Through hard work and many quests of her own she has won the favor of the Sin'Dorei and Malis is prepared to fight along side them any way that she can. Amirynth has recently withdrawn into herself which has put some distance between herself and Malis, something that the troll has tried to deal with. Through this she decided to strike out on her own again and find a 'new' family. Her searchings lead to the Symphony after she heard some stories of their actions and observed the way they treated each other. Her hope is that one day she will be accepted and have a family once more.
