In the beginning the Eladrin, Elves, and Drow existed in harmony. But when Lolth led her drow against the Eladrin and Elves they fought a bloody war which killed many Elfkind. After Corellon had won and he had banished the Drow to the Underdark. He decided to keep this war from repeating itself so he secretly created an elite race to defeat the Drow if they ever attacked again. And thus were created the Twilight Elves. However Corellon could not have anticipated what happened next. Unbeknownst to him Lolth had put a curse on the Twilight Elves so that they had the lifespan of the average human. This curse made the Twilight Elves very depressed and suicidal for a time. When the Twilight Elves began to attack the other Elf races Corellon had to stop them. He built an impenetrable barrier between the main entrance to the Underdark and the outside world. He banished the Twilight Elves to the zone behind the wall until either the Drow or the Twilight Elves were wiped out. Recently the Twilight Elves managed to break out of the wall but it cost them some three quarters of the population to create the necesaary energy. All the energy created coalensed int a new deity with power greater than Corellons. The new Deity, Shaerro. This deity sacrificed much of it'sower to break the barrier but the Twilight Elves venerated it for it's role in freeing them. Once they were freed the Twilight Elves wandered the land and for a time lived in the Abyss. They were banished from that layer of the Abyss and the Twilight Elves begged their deity for one final boon. Shaerro created a land just out of reality that was vaguely connected to the Feywild. The Twilight Elves built a grand city of marble, granite, and crystal.They named this city Ceris and they lived there in relative peace. They soon explored their Realm and many of them formednew towns and cities but none were as majestic as Ceris.

Birel is a twilight elf ranger who believes that nature is above all and must be cherished and nurtured. She was raised in a small wood which was later destroyed by a Drow invasion. She led the remainder of the village against the invasion and they triumphed after sustaining almost no losses. She is ferocious and is capable of felling almost any foe with her two blades.
