History

This section is a simplified explanation of their history. To learn more, check her Template:RSL

Pre-Ashenfall

Zilyana is a Template:RSL from Template:RSL who arrived in Dragonwilds:Gielinor near the end of the Template:RSL, as one of Dragonwilds:Saradomin's finest warriors, giving her the rank of Commander. During the war, she led the forces of Saradomin, even participating in the battle of Template:RSL, defending it from Dragonwilds:Zamorak's forces. She fought against their commander, Template:RSL, but was overpowered by the demon, mortally wounded and left for dead. Saradomin arrived to her aid and teleported her to a secret location, where he keeps the Template:RSL. With it, Saradomin healed her so she could continue to fight under his name.

Sometime after the battle, Saradomin dispatches her with several soldiers to the Template:RSL to assist a flock of Template:RSL that were delivering the blade of the Template:RSL and were pinned by Zamorakian forces. Arriving at the temple, the Armadyleans, led by Template:RSL, were assisted by her and Bandosians led by Template:RSL. Although an alliance was formed after the sword was shattered to prevent K'ril from obtaining it, Zilyana would spy on all three sides, using amulets she received to listen in on their plans and manipulate the battle in her favour, although this did not last long. While all four sides began to fight each other, one of Dragonwilds:Guthix's Template:RSL, with several other druids, would cast a powerful spell to freeze the four factions, imprisoning the icyene in there.

During the late Dragonwilds:Fifth Age, the prison thawed out, and the armies would continue to fight; Zilyana would continue her attempt to reclaim the sword pieces for Saradomin. Although sometime later, she learns that god of wisdom was evicted from Gielinor by the god of balance and could not return due to the Template:RSL. But this would soon change when Guthix's resting place was discovered; she was amongst the factions' leaders to head there to slay Guthix. Despite failing to kill the god, as that deed was stolen by Template:RSL, Saradomin was still able to return, leaving the resting place with Zilyana to start planning for the return of other gods. In the Dragonwilds:Sixth Age, Zilyana was tasked with doing other things, but she remained as the commander of Saradomin's forces, even escorting him to Sliske's Template:RSL, the finale of his Template:RSL, and assisting in the Template:RSL against the Dragonwilds:Elder Gods.

When the Edict of Guthix was Template:RSL by the Template:RSL and their allies, Saradomin appointed Template:RSL, his daughter, as his successor to the Saradominist kingdoms. Despite disagreeing with this, she accepted it after seeing the wisdom in his choice, remaining in Template:RSL to ensure her safety.

Traveling to Ashenfall

During her time on the mainland, Zilyana received guidance from Saradomin to head to Ashenfall and seek aid in stopping Dragonwilds:Kuldra's attempt to destroy the world.

Trivia

  • The RuneScape influences are her hair colour being orange with white lines, blue attire having a Saradomin symbol, and her Template:RSL.
  • The Old School RuneScape influences are the hairstyle, her wings being a blue gradient and having only one pair of wings, whereas in RuneScape, she has two pairs. The metal plating on her shoulder and boots and she uses her iconic shield instead of a buckler.
