History


Date of Birth: July 17th, 1980
Home: Bowie, Maryland, United States
Family: Fergus and Eleanor Coyle (parents), Brian (younger brother)
Chrysalis: Preordainment (wealthy family led to a bit of a spoiled upbringing tempered only by the expectation that she serve as babysitter for her much younger brother; her Chrysalis struck during a major bout of frustration and boredom, the lovely and popular teenager missing yet another party; she started “hallucinating”, and followed the phenomena—chimera, no doubt—out, in a daze, until so led she stumbled into Caer Crios), 1997
Mentor: Duchess Elena-Anastasia Nicholenskya ni Fiona
The Test: Trial by Knowledge (the duchess and her retainers took in the Chrysalid and helped her recover her wits and learn about the life of the fae, her Fior-Righ including a grand party that the duchess took joy in planning; she reassured her family that she simply had gone off to college and cut ties)
Comrades: Autumn Shipp, Shannon Ransford, Karen Edwards, Regina Attenberry
Key Event #1: Awe & Wonder (always a bright yet athletic youth, she took to knightly Sidhe training with aplomb, growing skilled with traditional and modern weapons alike, groomed to be a vassal of the duchy)
Key Event #2: War (her training cut short when a dark count of House Balor and his minions kidnapped her and several other retainers with the intent of either slaying or corrupting them; she refused to wait to be rescued and battled her way to liberty against Thallain thugs twice her size, leading the other hostages to freedom and victory and sending the Balor packing back into the shadows)
Transition: Shift in Nature (but the Balor still managed to plant dark seeds of evil magic in her and the other retainers’ minds, cursing them with wracking agony that the duchess and her councilors struggled to cure; Queen Serena appeared, unwove the magic, and accepted Gwen as “payment” for the service, asking her to join the Ensemble as one of its mighty guardians; she agreed, and traveled to the other side of the country to make new friends and start a new life)


Remembrance
