Valryss Moondance

Valryss Moondance is a Sword Dancer of Eilistraee — a rare drow priestess who channels divine magic through dance and blade in service to the Dark Maiden. Once a noble daughter of a Lolth-worshipping house in the Underdark, Valryss was marked from birth by moon-pale hair and an unshakable yearning for the surface. On the night of a sacrificial rite, she caught a glimpse of the moon through a fissure in the caverns above — and heard the distant, haunting melody of Eilistraee’s song. Fleeing the Underdark at great peril, Valryss was found by surface elves devoted to the Moonmaiden and trained in the sacred arts of the Sword Dancers: swift, elegant warriors who wield dance as both devotion and deadly combat. Now, clad in silver-threaded silks and bearing twin blades kissed by moonlight, Valryss walks the shadowed paths of the world to bring light, beauty, and redemption — especially to her own kind. Graceful and compassionate, but unyielding in battle, she performs moonlit dances to heal, to protect, and when needed, to strike with divine fury. To see her move is to witness prayer in motion — and to cross her is to face the wrath of a goddess. Wherever darkness lingers, Valryss brings the promise of a softer, kinder future... one soul, one song, and one sword stroke at a time.
