Called Suntop in his youth for his sunny-bright hair, Sunstream is the gentle, enigmatic son of Cutter and Leetah. He has powerful abilities unrivaled by any other elf. His very sensitive “magic feeling” tells him when someone is using magic or if something has been manipulated by magic. He can send his spirit out of his body to commune with others on the spirit plane, and can astrally project his spirit-form into the physical world regardless of distance.
Even so, as a youth, Sunstream’s expanding talents often outstripped his control. When he detected the timeless psychic scream the High Ones made upon their disastrous arrival on the planet, he was unable to cope with it. Since then Savah, his loving mentor, has helped him hone and expand his magical powers.
Sunstream’s twin sister Ember called the wolf-blood to her in the womb, putting her in line to become the next chief of the Wolfriders. As a child this didn’t bother Sunstream, whose attitude was simply “I’ll be what I’ll be.” Though well-adjusted and undoubtedly brave, Sunstream wasn’t immune to teenage insecurities and felt the need to prove to Cutter that he could be a true Wolfrider. His greatest success came when he simply let himself be himself and allowed his Wolfrider-bred courage and tenacity to banish the millennia-old magical sickness haunting the Holt.
After his adventures with Dart’s band in the Forevergreen, Sunstream took up residence in the Palace of the High Ones. Alongside the rest of the Sun Folk, he is training with the firstcomer Timmain to learn to manipulate the magical vessel disguised as a mountain in the Wolfriders’ Holt.
Again his abilities threatened to outpace his ability to use them, and Sunstream entered suspended animation inside a Preserver cocoon. Even during his time in stasis, however, Suntream “went out” psychically to explore. On one such journey, he encountered the spirit of the beautiful, timid Wavedancer Brill, and Recognition struck. Their union resulted not only in their beloved daughter Korafay but also Sunstream’s gorgeously elaborate sea-elf form.
After spending a few decades with the Wavedancers raising Korafay into adulthood, Sunstream has returned to the Palace where he’s taken up his duty as the psychic “switchboard” through which all elves connect.
