Biography: Born to Victorian diplomat Jacoby Page, Lorelai was sent (rather secretly) to the Sarran White Lands as a 2-year-old when her father decided that he would rather have her raised in the utopian Sarran society (one he has studied all his life, having governed a city that once belonged to them,) than in among the corrupt money-driven politics of humans. So it was that Lorelai was taken in by the soon-to-be Sarran Prelate and long time friend of Jacoby, Ellendi Ondosophity. (ON-duh-SO-fi-Tee). Despite being raised on and taught all the ideals and customs of life among the "angels," as Lorelai grew older she began to understand and become troubled by the politics around her, like how her foster father was being criticized in the Prelature for housing a being as imperfect as a human. It became increasingly difficult to overcome the rashness of her human nature, and eventually she found herself fighting these instincts in a struggle to uphold a Sarran lifestyle. Looking a final chance to redeem both herself and her new father, Lorelai joined the Sarran defense force and now patrols the border between the White Lands and the hostile Helexith territory.

Personality: Lorelai is, by nature, far more reckless and less composed on the battlefield than her fellow soldiers. In fact, her desperation to prove her worth to herself as well as those around her often leads her to endanger her entire squad in combat situations. Given the seriousness of her situation, she keeps to herself and sulks in an almost hopeless state. Having sustained severe burns on the lower right side of her face as the result of an explosion in a fight against several Helexith Slashrim, Lorelai wears a veil almost all of the time. While fighting, she has established herself in her squad as a deadly sniper and fierce fighter, whose rashness has led her own commander to suggest that maybe Lorelai's attitude is due to a disregard for her own life.
