The Siren, Daphne Covenant
In the late 1970s a young woman was born in the Swiss Alps to a pair of humans, Kristopher
and Anastasia Covenant. Kristopher was a relatively powerful sorcerer and Anastasia was a
powerful Psiren. To the surprise of her parents, Daphne was born with the tattoos of a
Uziel. Furthermore, the tattoos were like nothing anyone had seen before. Daphnes
tattoos were a normal purple but they has veins of silver running through them. Although
the ruling council at the time was not sure what to make of Daphne, they knew that
something was special about her. The Helix therefore took her education in hand and placed
her directly under Armande, the Magister-Ell. Daphne was trained to be a leader of the
next generation of Inlustris. To this end she was trained as a leader, a diplomat, and a
warrior.When Daphne entered her teenage years, her powers became
evident. In addition to being a Sensitive Uziel, she had inherited the powers of a Psiren
from her mother. This revelation allowed Armande to specialize her education even more and
the end result was a natural leader who could relate to all portions of her subjects.
Daphne began her career at the age of 17. Given the command of a small
squad of Uziel, she destroyed an Avatar of Lord Yasuva. This was only the beginning. As
her successes mounted, she was given more and more responsibilities until now, at the age
of 28, she leads the Helix.
Since the return of the Nightlords, Daphne has been dedicated to one
thing: their destruction. The Siren has organized her forces and expanded their scope,
establishing new bases throughout the world and expanding even into the Nightlands. Daphne
Covenant will not rest until the Nightlords are either expelled or obliterated.

- Disposition: Daphne is a born leader who works her hardest to see

non-humans such as Nightbane, Wampyrs, and the Guardians. However, in order to retain her
position, she cannot associate with them or form alliances with such factions. She also
deplores the killing of newborns who are less than perfect and has put an end to such
practices, including the creation of the Brightblades. However, unknown to her,
Brightblades are still being forged in limited quantities and imperfect babies often meet
with unfortunate accidents. Daphnes driving force is the wish to defeat the
Nightlords and, one day, integrate the Inlustris with the rest of human society. However,
she does not know whether she has the life span of a Uziel or a normal human, and
therefore she never wastes time.
