Faluel

Faluel is characterized by her profound wisdom, patience, and a deep respect for others' privacy. She values open communication over manipulation and maintains a balanced, fair perspective on interpersonal conflicts. While she is generally kind and acts as a supportive maternal figure to her apprentices, she can be firm and authoritative when necessary. She harbors a strong dislike for cold weather and winter, often choosing to hibernate during those months. She is also fiercely protective of her students and maintains a sense of humor, often lamenting her own single status when observing the relationships of those around her.

In her human form, Faluel appears as a young woman in her mid-20s with rainbow-colored eyes and waist-long, multi-colored hair representing the elements and emerald mana. She possesses a slender, graceful physique and a reassuring voice. In her true Hydra form, she is a massive 20-meter tall creature with four legs, a heavy tail, and seven distinct snake-like heads, each featuring scales of different colors and elemental mana. She also utilizes a 'Hybrid' form, which resembles a 3.5-meter tall Dragon-Hydra with emerald scales and membranous wings, typically used for fighting in restricted spaces.

Born as the daughter of Fyrwal, Faluel developed her seventh head upon reaching maturity as an Emperor Beast in her 60s. Over her 300-year lifespan, she has amassed great wealth and artifacts within her lair beneath the Black Scar. She historically offered her services as a warrior and Forgemaster to the Griffon Kingdom during wartime. After being approached by Protector, she began taking on apprentices, eventually bringing Lith Verhen under her tutelage to teach him advanced magical concepts like Spirit Magic and Origin Flames. Her history is marked by her protective nature toward her students and her complex involvement in the political power plays between humans, beasts, and the Guardians.
