Erione Silverspring was born in a small Elven settlement on the edge of Neverwinter Wood, where she grew up learning the ways of Elvenkind. Toward late adolescence her ability to summon magic in the form of spells--without any formal training or knowledge--began to manifest itself, showing her potential to be a sorceress. As there were no other sorcerers living in the settlement at the time, her parents sent her to the city of Neverwinter and the Neverwinter Academy to continue to develop those skills. There she also worked on her martial skills, become a master with the rapier; later in her adventures she would wield two such weapons, including the rapier known as Namarra, or "Neversleep".
Shortly before she was to graduate the Wailing Death plague broke out and the city was sealed. Erione was the only student to survive an attack on the Academy that left not only her fellow students but the instructors dead as well. Charged by Lady Aribeth with retrieving four magical creatures that were believed would bring a cure for the Wailing Death, Erione set out on her newfound life of adventure.
Her experience and power grew quickly and in no time the young sorceress was a power to be matched. In the city of Luskan she single-handedly killed High Captain Kurth while taking almost no injury to herself, her greatest triumph to date. Currently she can be found in the area of Beorunna's Well, accompanied by her henchman and friend, Daelan Redtiger, a half-orc barbarian of the Uthgardt tribe.

I bought Neverwinter Nights last Christmas, and was initially disappointed. As a Baldur's Gate 2 fan I was hoping to be able to form a party, have romances, and more interactions. After playing the game through once I shoved it aside and forgot about it until a couple of months ago, when I got an itch to play it.
Suddenly I loved it. Erione was the second character I created (the other was a Dwarf I played in "Shadows of Unrentide") and by far my most loved. I'd always avoided playing magic-using characters because they tend to get killed pretty easily, but Erione has proven to be one tough cookie. In fact game-wise, lately, she's been fighting a lot on her own...
This figure came together more or less accidentally. I had a Mon Mothma I was considering modifying to match the game portrait I had of Erione (pronounced Air-eye-uh-nee) when I decided to see how it looked on a Dark Woman body. Well, the head fit...and since I had some leftover Green Stuff at the moment, I thought, why not add hair? One thing led to another and I ended up with her like this. The hands I painted to match the face, and I painted the loincloth and center of her torso a forest green to give her a more Elven look (I considered doing ears but...some other time, maybe. Suffice to say she's Elven. Because they're cool.)
The lightning came from Palpatine and was glued to the left hand, since Chain Lightning is her favorite spell (she used it to kill Kurth in Luskan); normally in-game she wields a Rapier +2 and the rapier called Namarra, but the left hand of Dark Woman isn't really shaped to hold weapons well, so I went with the lightning. The cloak is a dead-on match color-wise for the Nymph Cloak she wears.
