Character Info[]

An'jhali, the leader and Illhar of the Tei'kaliath clan as well as the main character of Path to Power.

In Shifaye'sindil, An'jhali was part of the ruling family but so far down the line of succession that her chances of anything important in the family was slim. However, fate had other plans for her. After the Black Sun invaded Shifaye'sindil, An'jhali ended up being the last surviving member of her family and the leader of a group of refugees who escaped the city.

She led the refugees through the underworld until they arrived in a large cavern with a large bright light source. Later the cavern turned out to be the location of the city of Chel'el'Sussoloth and the bright light source was the Pillar of Light located in the middle of the city.

An'jhali decided this to be the perfect place for a new start and asked the people to give themselves a new name. They chose to call themselves clan Tei'kaliath. An'jhali has lead the clan ever since.

Side Note: Leaders of minor clans in Chel'el'sussoloth are traditionally referred to as Illhars, but the Tei'kaliath refer to An'jhali as a Ill'haress, a term normally reserved for the leader of a major clan.

Abilities[]

Anjhali knee strike

Due to extensive training in the art of tir'ay, An'jhali is a skilled hand to hand combatant and is arguably one of the most skilled tir'ay practitioners in the entire clan. However she is rarely allowed to fight on the front line by her clan, often to her frustration. On occasion where she has fought she has proven more than capable of defending herself. During the Dvaraka Invasion the Tei'kaliath found themselves attacked without warning by a small army and an enemy warrior managed to slip past the defenders to make an attempt on An'jhali's life. Despite being taken by surprise, An'jhali reacted swiftly by kneeing the would be killer in the face and then punching him while he was on the ground. While not seen, it is implied that she took down more off screen.

Along with tir'ay, An'jhali was also taught to use a sword in both the Tei'kaliath and Chelian styles although it has only been fairly recent that she's had an opportunity apply these skills outside of practice.

An'jhali mana shield

An'jhali conjures a mana shield

After the Dvaraka War, mana specialists Ka'Taliyn and Lua'nar decided it was time that An'jhali learned how to make a basic mana shield. At first An'jhali had difficulty mastering the technique, finding that conjuring and maintaining a mana shield was tiring work. However after learning a series of mana katas from Lua'nar in order to better channel her mana, An'jhali found herself able to conjure a mana shield able to deflect a thrown rock. The exercise still left her tired and it wouldn't be until she went to Orthorbbae that An'jhali would build a strong mana reserve.

During her time at Orthorbbae, An'jhali learned mana manipulation techniques which would become the basis for her more advanced moves. While there she learned the art of traditional summoning, which allowed her to unlock a summoning gem that the Tei'kaliath had found earlier in the game. It turned out the the gem contained the spirit of an ancient overworld dragon and at first the strain of maintaining such a powerful summon was too much for An'jhali. With training, however, she eventually expanded her aura to the point where she can now call upon it with ease.

Mana disruption

An'jhali learning how to disrupt mana.

After mastering her summon, she sought to discover her elemental affinity but found that she possessed none. One of her instructors suggested that An'jhali instead learn an advanced mana technique, such as disrupting arts, increasing a mana pool for other specialists, or absorbing mana. An'jhali ultimately decided to learn and master mana disruption, even going so far as to integrate it into her hand to hand techniques. While mastering advanced mana techniques, An'jhali apparently also learned from a personal instructor how to seal a nether aura.
