Calendar Note

The Azeroth Calendar here uses the After Dark Portal (ADP) system, where Year 0 marks the Dark Portal’s opening, and Year 20 ADP aligns with the Culling of Stratholme during the Third War. The current year is 40 ADP. Tullagosa was around 959 before the destruction of Dalaran in the Third War, with her birth year being 939 Before Dark Portal (BDP).

The Northern Kingdom's custom months (e.g., Springtide for March, and Verdantfall for August) overlay this timeline.

Roleplay History

• ((Roleplay history with Tullagosa started in mid 2020, during the second-last quarter of the Battle for Azeroth expansion.))
• Magister Lydine Iceheart arrived to the Isle of Silverrock during the Fourth War (which she had no interest in, with the exception of the Burning of Teldrassil and the Battle for Darkshore), a neutral island off the coast of the Eastern Kingdoms, ruled by Archduke Zetraytus Allengale IX. It had a unique history tied to it, and it had a facinating history with magic, the Leylines, and the Arcane too - which interested Lydine. Despite already being a member of the Kirin Tor, living in Dalaran, and having full responsibilities - for some reason she took an interest to the Isle, and the Magic Sector they had there. After she met with Allengale, (along with a few others who wanted to join), the meeting went well - and she agreed to stay on the Silverrock and assist the Repository of Silverrock, the guild running Silverrock (led by Allengale), with magical related matters.
• She joined the Magic Division on the island (or more formally called the Records Division), where she worked under Kaylis, a high elf mage who was apart of the High Council of Silverrock, and leader of the Records Division. While she primarily had her role as a Kirin Tor Magister, she also allocated time to spend in Silverrock and help out the Division; going on missions with Kaylis and the rest in the Division, among other things. Kaylis wanted to fortify their wards and magical protections in the city of Silverrock, however they had not the mana or power to do so. This was after a couple months of working with them, but Lydine's intuition told her not to trust them yet. She knew of an relic called the Dragon's Sphere, an artifact with a pool of rich mana and arcane power that was burried in Northrend that could help their plight, but she didn't bring it up. But one day Kaylis set up a meeting with some of the other RecDiv members, where he recalled an artifact called the Dragon's Sphere (or Lok Maladath Mish) was burried somewhere in Northrend after the Nexus War. And that some known cultists called the Frostbane are rumored to be after the artifact for some reason, so it was imperative that they reached it before they do.
• The Dragon's Sphere "Lok Maladath Mish" is a font of mana and arcane power from from millennia ago, created by Malygos - and it was part of a set of 10 that were created. It was used in the Nexus, and was closely guarded and used by the Blue Dragonflight to empower Coldarra. During the Nexus War many of the Spheres were abused and/or destroyed, so after Malygos was killed Lydine, along with her close friend Eronigos, hid and burried the last remaining Sphere under the snow of Dragonblight, so it couldn't be misused by anyone again. She was very reluctant to have Kaylis or the Records Division have the Sphere, as she didn't trust them fully with the artifact of her people. But she wanted to see how things went, while also protecting the Sphere from the Frostbane. Traveling to Northrend with Kaylis and a few others, she led them to where she burried the Sphere in Dragonblight. But to her horror the artifact was missing! After being ambushed by a cultist, they tracked down the Sphere to a small town overrun with Frostbane cultists which they managed to fight through and dispatch. But the Sphere was taken away by a blue dragonkin, and the party was teleported ontop of a floating platform above the town.
• Two blue dragons flew next to the dragonkin, and he explained that they were all part of a clan of Malygos sympathizers who wanted to use the Dragon's Sphere to aid them in purging other rival dragon clans, and help reinvigorate Malygos' new vision and goal (from his madness). Lydine strongly opposed Malygos' new vision, and she supported the Blue Dragonflight's mission of old. Being that she surrounds herself with mortals, is apart of the Kirin Tor, and she teaches magic to others as well, that means she felt it was her duty to stop him, as a Blue Dragon. The dragonkin used part of the Sphere's power as he engaged the party, and created an energy field around the platform which nullified the party's magic. Before it took effect Lydine managed to conjure various weaponry for them to use, and eventually they defeated the dragonkin and the other two dragons. However something she hadn't noticed before, was one of the blue dragon's was Eronigos, which she had just killed. Just before he died, he muttered "Sorry, Tulla..." in Draconic, leading Lydine to be shocked and heartbroken. She hadn't seen Eronigos is many years, but it turned out he was captured and forced to join the Malygos sympathizers. She couldn't cry or weep for her dear friend in front of the others, as she was keeping her identity a secret from her guildmates. So all she could do was silently mourn for him.
• Lydine took the Dragon's Sphere and teleported the party back to Silverrock. She didn't immediately hand over the relic, but instead she returned back to Dragonblight to find Eronigos' body alone. Tullagosa flew his body to the Northeastern reaches of the Storm Peaks, which was their favorite place to go together, and burried his remains deep under the snow - which is where he would've wanted to be burried at. A few days later she gave the Sphere to the Records Division, entrusting them to use it properly and not abuse it. The artifact was kept under heavy wards and protections within the Records Division, and was used to power the wards and protections covering the rest of the city, and empower Silverrock's spellcasters, however Lydine did give herself a backdoor access - where she laced the Sphere with her draconic magic, allowing her to monitor it and take it back if necessary.
• During this time she spent more time with a human called Gryphonstone, a swordsman of the Military Division. While it was unlikely love - Gryphon became infatuated with Lydine, and somehow Lydine returned his feelings. Besides the death of her dear friends, everything seemed to be going right. And she wanted something to take her mind off of Eronigos's death, and she wanted to give the human a chance. So over the next few months they began going out, until eventually they became steady, to the point they quickly became intimate with one another (although she wasn't able to get pregnant, as dragons lost their fertility before Dragonflight). Over time Lydine's status rose in Silverrock, and Allengale gave her the status of nobility - and she was given her own estate on the Isle. However, sometime later Kaylis resigned from his position as leader of the RecDiv, leaving the position open. Lydine stepped up and became the new leader of the Records Division, where she joined the High Council of Silverrock. For the next several weeks she was in charge of the duties Kaylis did, however Lydine underestimated the amount of responsibility and tasks she was expected to do. And because of her full-time position in the Kirin Tor, and because of her responsibilities to her apprentices (Suneza), she eventually stepped down and resumed her normal responsibilities within the Record Division.

  Things took the turn for the worse when events were happening on Silverrock which she wasn't present for. She was swamped with work again with the Kirin Tor and Suneza, so she wasn't able to assist the problems they were having with undead, necromancers, and a lich that were causing them issues. She figured they would be able to handle it on their own, but later on when she returned to Silverrock she was suddenly notified that Gryphonstone was going to be executed. She was obviously shocked and confused, until Morhgan (the executioner and leader of the Military Division) explained he was conspiring against them and joined the side of the enemy. She wasn't convinced however, and she eventually found out he was being mind controlled by the lich, and it wasn't actually his own doing. But before she could do anything about it, the execution was already underway. She was in the audience row when she saw Morhgan chop Gryphonstone's head off - her own partner executed. She was petrified and mortified at the sight, and she was completely broken.
• Sometime after the execution she followed Allengale until he was alone, and then she ambushed him; using powerful Cryomancy magic Tullagosa froze Allengale's body - directly (and uncomfortably) freezing the very muscles and tendons that were in his body. Tullagosa caused the air around him to become freezing and stiff to the point it hurt. She confronted and argued with Allengale about her partner's murder, lashing out at him in an uncontrollable rage. But Allengale retorted back saying that they hadn't been aware of the new details until the day of the execution, but that if Lydine really wanted to stop the execution, why didn't she step in? Why did she just watch? This infuriated and broke Tullagosa even more, realizing he was right... she didn't do anything, and she regretted it dearly. Tullagosa was tempted to just completely snap and kill Allengale right there and now, and she was very close to... until she eventually just let him go, and unfreezed him. After her confrontation with Allengale, out of frustration and grief she just teleported away - and back to Dalaran. It took a long time for Tullagosa to get over Gryphon's death. And she was very tempted to go into her dragon form and destroy the whole city and the Isle of Silverrock in general. But with the help of Suneza, her friends, and her colleagues of the Kirin Tor she was able to regain control of herself.
• Later, back in Silverrock, she met with Gryphon's brother, where the two got into a short relationship. However, going into another relationship right after the death of her partner, and doing the same acts they did together felt wrong and disgusting. So eventually she broke off the relationship, and that's when she eventually distanced herself from the Repository of Silverrock, and the Isle of Silverrock as a whole too. And especially from Allengale. Others in the Repository also broke away and distanced themselves to do other things. And one day, she eventually returned back to her Silverrock estate and packed her things, vowing to never return to the Isle. That wasn't entirely true, as sometime later, when even Allengale left Silverrock to persue other interests, she returned back to the Record Division's tower to reclaim the Dragon's Sphere, and take it back with her - feeling as though it's already served its purpose in their hands, and now it belongs back to an Azure's hands.
• Almost a year or two later, she was still living and working in Dalaran, and doing what she normally did before she stepped foot in Silverrock. However, a certain feeling nagged at her, and she became curious about what Allengale was up to. Despite their tense past few encounters, and she hasn't forgiven Allengale yet, she was a lot more calmer now after the incident. And she shakily accepted Gryphonstone's death. She found out that Allengale was now the Knight-Champion of a small town in Kalimdor called Oakfield. She showed up unexpectedly to pay Allengale a visit. He was quite surprised to see Lydine after so long, and the two hesitantly reconciled after what happened between them. She wasn't sure whether to follow through with the next part, but she wasn't able to tell her partner, Gryphonstone, before he died, so she wanted to at least entrust it to Allengale in case she never sees him again. She revealed her identity as a Blue Dragon to Allengale, and shortly after she teleported away.

  Roleplay within Epsilon: Years later while in Dalaran (in the year 39, close to a year before the rediscovery of the Dragon Isles), her vulpera apprentice, Suneza, approached her with a favor. He already told her before that he helped a group of High Elves settle in Eastweald, and that he pledged himself to the Argent Crusade along with the elves. And that he helped found Brightglen, a town which the Argent Crusade let them build south of Hearthglen. But he wanted to see if the Kirin Tor can have a partnership with Brightglen, and offer the elves knowledge, resources, and aid when it comes to Dalaran's expansive magical repertoire. Lydine is a high ranking member of the Kirin Tor, so she definitely had some sway. So she agreed to help Suneza arrange a meeting with someone in the Kirin Tor. She's a close acquaintance of Advisor Jane, one of two main advisors Archmage Modera has, and the Archmage herself. So she reached out to Jane and managed to sway her into arranging a meeting with Modera. And over the next week a day was chosen. At the meeting was Lydine, Archmage Modera, Advisor Jane and Advisor Sunpyre. But Suneza was also there, along with Dra'Gan, advisor to Solana (who's the leader of the caravan, and mayor of Brightglen), because she couldn't attend herself. Before the meeting started, I'daris Embershine showed up to the meeting. He's a Sunreaver mage who opposed the alliance and partnership between the Kirin Tor and Brightglen, and he spent the meeting arguing and trying to persuade the Archmage that the elves of Brightglen were trouble. At the end of the meeting, and after Suneza and Dra'Gan explained what they wanted, Modera gave in and agreed to the partnership between the Kirin Tor and the town of Brightglen.
• After their meeting Modera arranged another one with the Argent Crusade, specifically Jaspen Abbendis (the new leader of the Argents), where they discussed the details of their partnership. Because Brightglen is in Argent territory, she needed permission from them as well. After some discussion, Modera settled on an argreement that the Kirin Tor would partner with both Brightglen and the Argent Crusade to benefit one another. Modera created a subsidiary group of the Kirin Tor that will manage their operations in Eastweald, and she appointed Magister Iceheart and Advisor Sunpyre to supervise it, and they were going to build a camp in Brightglen that serves as their base of opperations. The Kirin Tor allocated resources and support for Brightglen and the Argent Crusade in general, in exchange for the Argent Crusade allowing them to opperate in Argent controlled lands within West Eastweald and the Plaguelands, having access to its resources and allowing them to conduct studies within those regions as well.
• Lydine and Sunpyre went to Brightglen, where they started construction of the Kirin Tor base camp in the Northwest part of the town, a short ways away from Suneza's mage tower. Lydine helped managed the resources put into the construction, as well as recruiting Kirin Tor members who wanted to work with them from Dalaran. She was in charge of bringing guards, researchers, diplomats, and even battle-mages from Dalaran to the operation. She also established a portal network between Dalaran and Brightglen, with the help of Suneza, who is also a talented Telemancer. After constructions were finished, she was approached by Suneza again, asking for support with his mage tower. He had plans to turn it into a shop called Gold's Arcane Emporium® so he could earn some money, and also turn it into a magical hub for the townsfolk and any travelers. He thought it would be a perfect way for the Kirin Tor to support Brightglen, and Lydine agreed. So after conferring with Sunpyre, the Kirin Tor started to sponser Gold's Arcane Emporium®, and gave Suneza the resources, reagents, books, tomes, and items to turn his vision into reality.
• Sometime later Lydine was notified that there was a problem in the Plaguelands, and she had a meeting with Jaspen about it. There was a strange tauren chronomancer causing problems in the region, and while she wasn't causing any problems then, Jaspen wanted to know who she was and if she was going to be a larger problem. A mysterious house also appeared behind Northdale which they wanted answers for too. So Jaspen sent Suneza out on a mission to investigate the region with Elma Ravenholt, a special operative with the Argent Crusade. Lydine was hesitant about sending her apprentice, but Jaspen assured there was likely nothing to worry about, and it wasn't a very dangerous operation. And so, she waited for Suneza's return while going about her regular business in Brightglen, and working alongside the Argent Crusade. But as time went on, something seemed very amiss. Two weeks went by with no word from Suneza or Elma, when it should've only took a week at the very least, including frequent communication. And she began to worry when a full month passed with nothing from her apprentice. At that point she gathered her mages and rallied the Argent Crusade to conduct a sweep of the entire Western Eastweald region, and along the boarders to the Plaguelands, and even partly into the Plaguelands itself. But it came out fruitless. And even using scrying magic from the most powerful mages in Dalaran couldn't find either Suneza or Elma.
• She began worrying a lot, not knowing what happened to her apprentice at all.. A month more goes by and the Argent Crusade sent more of its members to find the two, and when they returned a couple weeks later two of their members, Yevir Flint and Smokey LaRue, suddenly disapeared in the Plaguelands. At this point Tullagosa was beginning to have a nervous breakdown. Memories of losing Gryphonstone and Eronigos come flooding back, and she was horrified at the thought of losing her precious apprentice and friend too... 4 whole months went by since Suneza and Elma's disappeared, and it is well into year 40. However - over the next few weeks "repressed" memories slowly started surfacing for Lydine. Memories of Suneza around 15 years ago at the Dalaran Dome, where they eventually traveled to Hearthglen to save Elma... and Yevir Flint and Smokey LaRue were there too! At first she was confused, but she wanted to test her theory. At the Kirin Tor camp, with the help of a Shal'dorei chronomancer they scryed 15 years ago into the past where they saw the Suneza, Yevir, and Smokey they knew, infiltrating Hearthglen. But they also saw past Lydine there too, however her memories didn't update to what they were seeing. She understood now they were probably transported 15 years ago by the rogue chronomancer, and they were stuck in the past, and that Elma was in trouble because of it.
• Lydine got word Suneza appeared in Hearthglen, but he didn't stay long. He seemed to grab some stuff, as well as relay what was currently happening to Jaspen, before he teleported somewhere (back to the past). She was relieved that her apprentice and the others weren't permanently stuck in the past, but she wasn't sure when she would see them again. After Lydine had a meeting with Jaspen, they agreed to take the fight directly to the Plaguelands. Jaspen sent Lina'ven and Ellienore to the Plaguelands to scout out where the rogue chronomancer was and briefly investigate her hideout, before Jaspen and Lydine initiated their plan. Lydine Iceheart and Jaspen, along with a small handful of Kirin Tor mages and Argent Crusade soldiers stormed into Northdale and into the mysterious house that had suddenly appeared. Inside they confronted the tauren chronomancer, however she seemed more eager to fight than talk. Realizing they weren't going to get anything out of her, they killed the chronomancer, and secured the property, thinking their problems will finally be over (or will be once the others return). And eventually some weeks later Suneza, Elma, Yevir and Smokey returned; appearing back in Hearthglen. Suneza was given a stern talking to and lecture by Lydine as soon as she found out they were goofing off in the past (which is how Elma got captured).
• However around the same time; after the group got back, Lydine recieved word from Jaspen and her Kirin Tor Intelligence that a powerful lightning bolt stuck Stratholme. It seemed magical in nature and the shockwave was felt all throughout the Northern continent (all the way to the tip of the Wetlands) in the form of an earthquake. While the phenomenon was perplexing, what concerned them was that communication with the Plaguelands have been cut off. Dense, dangerous fog appeared throughout the region, the scourge became more active, and people began disappearing when traveling in the Plaguelands, as if they've been snatched away. Teleportation and portals aren't possible due to someone tapping into the leyline networks and kidnapping people in the Plaguelands, thus leaving a lot of their people stranded in the Plaguelands, including Lydine's Kirin Tor members who are stuck there (Annabelle Bradley, Ellienore's long lost sister, is one of them). So the Argent Crusade and Kirin Tor designated the Plaguelands as a no-travel zone, banning all entry into the zone. And at the same time she found out Hearthglen and the Argent Crusade (along with Brightglen) was being harassed by the Sin'dorei, mainly Aunore Sunstrider, the new leader of Silvermoon, because of Solana; they've been demanding her return to Quel'thalas despite having more authority or jurisdiction over her, and Solana commiting no crime.
• A few months later, one afternoon she was working in the Kirin Tor camp building when she heard a lot of commotion outside, coming from the center of Brightglen.

Personal Details

Magister Lydine Iceheart (her real name Tullagosa) is a Cryomancer, teacher, and Magister of the Kirin Tor, and she's been apart of the organization for centuries. She's a power and innate spellcaster (as a Blue Dragon amplifying her abilities). Her past is a mystery to many people, and her identity as a dragon would also be unknown to most people - with the exception of the upper echelon of the Kirin Tor, such as the Council of Six, and those she is close with. Despite the Council knowing she's a blue dragon, they trust her because of her accomplishments and contributions to the Kirin Tor and Dalaran as a whole, especially during the Nexus War, who she fought on the side of mortals and the Kirin Tor. She believes that magic shouldn't be restricted to only a few, but rather should be shared to everyone with the will and patience to learn, and it is up to the individual whether they are worthy of using it or not. And in the cases of rogue spellcasters, and those who seek to abuse magic, she believes it should be on a case by case basis rather than restrict everyone else's magic - so long as their magic is within the confines of the law. Which is why she fights so much on the freedom of mortals using magic.

Lydine has had many apprentices over the years, but she currently only has three: Suneza, a vulpera battle-mage, spellblade, and wild mage she took under her wing 34 years ago. Zelina Coldspark, a Quel'dorei mage she is mentoring in the Kirin Tor. And a human by the name of Lizz.

Alignment: Between Lawful Good and Neutral Good.

Trivia

• She is Ibutsu Delsha's adoptive parent; she legally adopted the vulpera after the Cataclysm when Suneza and him met in Stormwind and became close, eventually leading to Lydine to adopt him and put him in her care until he got older.
