Brin Ohmsford

Brin Ohmsford is a Valegirl and part Elf. She lives with her family in Shady Vale, in Southland. She is beautiful, with long black hair, dusky skin, and black eyes. Brin's parents are Eretria and Wil. Brin resembles her mother. She has her father's temperament, cool, self-assured, and disciplined. Brin has the power of the wishsong, a remnant of her father's use of Elven magic in the past. She uses the wishsong occasionally, as a toy, against her father's wishes.

Brin is summoned by a Druid, Allanon, to perform a quest to save the Four Lands. Her father and another ancestor had performed similar such quests in the past. Allanon explains that the wishsong is more powerful than Brin realizes, and she must use it to help destroy the Ildatch, a book of evil magic.

Brin leaves with Allanon and her friend, Rone, without her parents' knowledge...
