May truth be your sight
And may hope light your way,
For all that we fight for
May be gone today.
Splinter - Draykh-Nahka
Set - Untamed
Class - Legendary Dragon Summoner
Size - Camilla is an average sized Human girl of no more than 40 chickens. Her staff stands twice her own height, and she is dwarfed by nearly every monster on the battlefield at Mount Mox. But this matters little to her; Camilla summons her monsters and Dragons with utter fearlessness.
Lifespan - Camilla Sungazer is 32 years old. It has been nearly twenty years since her eyesight left her. As a common child in Draykh-Nahka, her parents could do nothing to keep little Camilla from staring at the sun. No one knew why she did it, but by her twelfth birthday, Camilla’s retinas had burned to scar tissue, rendering her completely blind. For Camilla’s journey of summoning and magical powers, her blindness was only the beginning. She claims that once her sight was “removed by design”, she was finally able to see the “truth of the sun.” Now her growth is slowed, and it seems that Camilla may live an incredibly long life, powered by the sun itself.
Habitat - In Centrum’s Kuto Square there is a round building with an open oculus that lets in the noon sun. This is Camilla’s home, where she lives with her aging parents. Once she gained the ability to summon Dragons, the Gloridax had no choice but to lift her family from poverty and provide for them. Now they must look at her as something of an equal, even though she carries no Fire Blood. At Mount Mox, there is also an apartment built to her specifications, with a large hole in the ceiling.
Weapon - Camilla’s staff is one of the most mysterious legendary weapons in the Splinterlands, for she says that it was delivered to her through the rays of the sun. At night, Camilla used to be wracked with terrifying dreams, for without the light of the sun, she was lost and afraid. One night during this crucible she was gifted visions from someone she had never met before. He cut through the darkness with blazing light. His helmet was justice itself and his spear was righteousness. He told Camilla without revealing his name that she was chosen by the sun, that she would be a great warrior in a coming battle in which sight would be a hindrance. The she felt all the power of the sun coursing through her, and when she awoke, she held the Staff of Solara.
Diet - They say that Camilla “eats the light of the sun and drinks the joy of loved ones.” While she usually refuses to eat food, Camilla is always healthy, glowing and smiling. Most presume that through the power of the Staff of Solara, she is able to convert the sun’s energy into all the sustenance she needs.
Allies - Camilla is a friend to all the people of Draykh-Nahka. She is the most popular of the Dragon summoners because she is genuine and she always cares for her neighbors. She is known for her huge grin, which she wears at all times, and which brightens the day of the poorest peasants of Centrum as she walks the city streets. She is open, trusting and vulnerable. Camilla is fascinated by nearly everything in the world, a trait which makes her instantly likeable to nearly everyone she meets.
Enemies - Camilla is quick to love, resistant to hate, and she loves to forgive. For these reasons (among others) she is considered a security threat to the United Gloridax and the High Council. Those who hold the power of the Fire Blood are not interested in virtue, which always seems to interfere with their greater agenda. And the Dragons know what the Planet needs.
Pastimes - For a blind woman, it is simply incredible how Camilla can find her way to every corner of her city with ease. Her favorite thing to do is make rounds visiting friends unannounced. Perhaps she remembers the streets so well because for the most formative years of her childhood, they were her home.
