History


Date of Birth: September 7th, 1986
Home: Waterford, County Waterford, Ireland
Family: Cormac and Rian Dunham (parents), Taran (younger brother)
Chrysalis: Preordainment (middle-class blue collar family in Waterford; always had a strong infatuation towards the antiquity of her homeland, as did her brother; they were visiting the museum of Reginald’s Tower when some of the artifacts unexpectedly reacted to them with a flare of magic, casting poor Taran out the window to his death; dark spirits appeared before her, mocking her, but she drove them away with a scream of pure Glamour), 2005
Mentor: Count Eirith Unal ni Daireann
The Test: Trial by Knowledge (the accident and flare-up of Glamour drew the local fae, who approached the teen and brought her into the courts of the fae; she learned the Escheat, but was especially prepared for a more combative lifestyle as Knight of the Dark Crucible, per the nature of artifact whose shards her Sidhe spirit both discovered and activated)
Comrades: dsds
Key Event #1: Awe & Wonder (Rayleigh realized she had inadvertently set into motion a dangerous chain of events: if the Dark Crucible were to fall into the hands of those demons, the Fomorians, the Endless Winter would befall the world; she began to seek out all the pieces and send them to Tara-Nar in Concordia for safe-keeping, venturing across Ireland, Scotland, England, Wales, the Isle of Man, and Brittany)
Key Event #2: Treachery (her searches picked up several shards but it was clear there must be hundreds scattered all over the world; she grew impatient and desperate, and thus fell for a trick—Fomorian demons led her into a deadly trap she barely escaped)
Transition: Defeat (wounded and hounded, she struggled to escape to Concordia; Queen Serena appeared and offered refuge and even aid in her quest if she were to join the Ensemble; Rayleigh agreed and vanished right from under their noses…for now)

Remembrance


Magnitude: Rayleigh has a strong memory reaching back a few centuries.
Details: Her Remembrance is tied up with the Dark Crucible: remembering what it can do, and remembering the kinds of dark forces that pursue it.

Significant Others


The Shanghaied Ensemble of Royalty is a massive collective of "fairy princesses" to which she blithely and merrily belongs. Visit this link for the full skinny:

Weakness
Measured by One's Foes


Though all Daireann have a long enmity against the enemy of the fae, the Fomorians, the demons have taken a special interest in Rayleigh--perhaps because it is her destiny to unite the shards of the Dark Crucible.

Likelihood of Corruption


Average.

While Rayleigh is of strong heart and character, she is specifically sought out by creatures of nightmare and corruption.
