Nadriella Batten

The Under Arc of Lore

“A Myth's thief of fiery white-light."


Who Is Nadriella Batten?

Naddy is a thief of the god's light caught between two worlds: the one that wounded her, and the one that now demands she rise. Pulled into the Ebonunder by fate, accident, or divine cruelty, she becomes the unlikeliest of a champion for the immortal and the mortal.

She is impulsive, stubborn, reckless, and brave in ways she does not yet understand. 

Origins & Burdens

Her mother gave her blame.
Her childhood gave her shame.
The silver box gave her ghosts.
The brace gave her limitation.


Her Role in the Under Legend

"Lightmares," she calls them. The things no mortal was ever meant to see.

  • Underbow of whispered lore
  • Catalyst for the shifting fates of Shallowalkers
  • The one who may unmake or redeem a Silver Veil
  • Salvation entwined with destruction

Traits

  • Tests and challenges death
  • Fierce, impulsive, sharp-tongued
  • Walks with pain as a badge
  • Ill-tempered, a real scrapper
  • Endlessly curious, endlessly stubborn
  • Suffers quietly

Relationships & Connections

Legion

Her captor turned protector, her fear turned salvation. He sees the strength she hides. She sees the man inside the beast. Neither fully understands the other—and that is where destiny stirs.

I’shooma & Ti’jago

Her unlikely guardians. Through the gr'ray she learns trust, patience, and the language of wings.

Daulton Batten

Her brother, her anchor, her grief. The echo of home she cannot outrun.

Bryleetah

Foe by instinct. Rival by presence. A beauty and a danger Naddy cannot ignore.

Oriella

A quiet force of grace and steel. Naddy does not yet know whether she is friend… or future shadow.
