Rayla is a Moonshadow Elf originating from the Silvergrove. She is the daughter of Tiadrin and Lain, and was raised by Runaan and Ethari while her parents were on duty serving the Dragonguard.[16] She used to be the youngest of a former band of assassins sworn to protect Xadia, as the fastest and strongest of all of her comrades,[17] though she lacks a desire for war and unnecessary bloodshed. Rayla was also titled "The Last Dragon Guard", having followed in the footsteps of her parents in protecting the Dragon Prince.[3][12][13] Along with Callum, Ezran, and Bait, she returned the Dragon Prince, Azymondias, to his mother, the Dragon Queen Zubeia, to establish peace between the humans and the inhabitants of Xadia.[3] Two years later, she regrouped with her friends and embarked on a quest to stop the liberation of Aaravos, followed by successfully uniting to fully rid the world of the Startouch Elf Archmage for seven years and nineteen days.[18] She is currently in a relationship with Callum.[19]
