I dreamed of secrets. The voices of my people whispered to me of spider webs and hidden knives. The voices asked me about the daggers.
Where I put my daggers? I can't remember...
I turned on my left side but voices didn't stopped ask. Someone caught my arm and shake it.
- Killeen! Wake up! Killeen! - I opened eyes and there was young man. I knew him.
- Oh Dougal! I’m up! I’m up! What happened?
- Ember is gone! She took your daggers and my water supply!
We were in the cave. I looked around. It was cold, dark but pretty attractive. I felt the earth singing.
No. It wasn't earth.
Ancient bones, buried in the depths of the earth, were singing to me.
- Killeen are you here? - I heard distant voice.
The darkness hissed and waved inside the cave. Two green eyes sparkled in the darkness.
- Kiliana. Your name is Kiliana. - The darkness said through my mouth.

Birds were silent in the night of my awake. Dark sky with pale moon. I was the only soul lay anxious wide awake waiting for the sunrise. I was consumed by the silence of the night and I didn't noticed that the nightmare touched me and left its mark.


“I respect the traditions of necromancers that have gone before me.”

About the character idea and name:

When I first read the novel „Ghost of Ascalon” I felt in love with necromancer Killeen. I was inspired bt my vision of Killien while I was creating my Sylvari necromancer.
Name Kiliana has its origins in the Irish language and it is associated with the “war”. My necromancer means to be a weapon to fight with Nightmare Court. But sadly if you want to defeat the beast you need to become a beast.

About the look:

Base for this look is Sylvari light cultural tier 2 with toxic glows, toxic spore backpack and nightmare coat. Her optional weapons are Nightmare Anelace daggers which fit to her toxicity. Her main weapons (Belladonna and Dreamthistle Staff) are adding some blue light to look but I think that they complement whole style.

About the dyes:

Her look is chic, leafy and dangerous. She is like a toxic flower bloomed in the middle of the night.
Blue hue: Midnight Ice, Spring Tide, Deep Teal, Spruce
Green hue: Midnight Teal, Glacial Teal
Yellow hue: Shadow Yellow

Maps where I made screenshots:

Hoelbrak, dungeon Twilight Arbor, The Grove, Verdant Brink, Caledon Forest and The Heart of the Mists (PvP lobby).

What do you think about her history, her look and the screenshots? Please let me know in the comment below!

I am utterly in love with your magnificent dye scheme and your fabulous presentation!
The armour mix combined the best of Sylvari armour
Since I am just reading the novel myself I will certainly have your character in mind now while reading, great work! ^^

I've seen plenty of sylvari attempt to do what you pulled off. None have done so quite as well as you have. It's dark and sinister, but also exotic and alluring. It brings back good memories of the Tower of Nightmares, as well as the mysterious nature of Mordremoth from before HoT's launch.

You clearly put a ton of thought into this character's background, and your screenshots are nothing less than stunning. Great work all around.

This is such a great upload!
I love the overall look and especially the colours are simply amazing! You payed attention to every single detail from hairstyle and colour to skin tone and the glowing of your Sylvari! Everything matches so well together.
Your armour mix is a classic one, maybe not the most uncommon look, a little bit too much of one armour set for me but I think your presentation, especially your screens are so well done that you definately deserve a gold for this look.
Keep up the awesome work!

Your screens are gorgeous. Wallpaper quality. I like the armor colors you chose very much. Right now I'm strugling with outfit for my sylvari necro and this is great inspiration, thank you.

I found a tiny mistake while reading your description: "I don't noticed" and "don't stopped ask" instead of "didn't notice" and "didn't stop asking". I'm not native english speaker, but I'm pretty sure this is the right form.

The story is very good. GJ. I read Ghosts of Ascalon too, though it's been very long time. But I remember that the necromancer was my favourite character :)

She is absolutely gorgeous! Your screens are just, wow. I love when someone comes up with a additional look and makes it exceptional. What a clever use of the gloves. So much gold here.

The screenshots are some of the best I have ever seen, hands down! Even without the editing. I appreciate your eye for location and your timing in capturing the right moments during animations, I know how hard that can be!
Her face and hair combination is absolutely perfect!
The armor mix and dyes are fitting, but to me are the weakpoint of the look. It just looks like your average Sylvari. Without the pumped up and well timed screenshots, this look wouldnt be a showstopper for me that I just have to look at, ingame. That is not to say the look is bad, just not quite gold for me.
Gold for the screens tho!

Killeen was also my favorite character of the book :D
I love how it was described that golden pollen fell from her, loved the descriptions!
It made me want a sylvari necro, but over the years i changed it up xD
Anyway, nice style you got there!
The colours are very pretty with the cultural mix you went for! The weapons fit the style perfectly, good choices there!
And your screens are simply breathtaking, the editing definitely pays off :D
Gold from me!
