She was raised along with her siblings by her aunt and uncle in an equally small villlage in the most southern part of Nagrand, beyond the diamond mountain of Oshu'gun.
She lived there a 'relatively' peacfull life, with only small Orcish skirmishes to disturb the dayly routine for some fourty years untill word got to the Draenei of the dangerous plan of de Orcish Shaman Ner'zul. The smaller villages packed together in the city of Haala and braced themselves for a big Horde offensive, yet without warning the planet tore appart.
In later years, having lost so much, Aerillian tightened her resolve and became cold and distant yet blindly devout to the Light and righting the wrongs of the world.
She eventually journeyed with the mass exodus to the Netherstorm where she helped stage the attack on Tempest keep from her new home of Enkaat.
Ultimatly leading to the escape of the Draenei in the Exodar ship.
Aerillian has a very black and white view on things and has a hard time coping with 'the grey masses' Her faith in the Light is unwavering and can even be described as a bit orthodox.
Since she has been emotionally scarred she will hardly ever express her feelings, not sure if she can't just express them or has even shut them down for herself...
Because she has seen so much distress and lost so much she falls back to her teachings in paladinhood as much as she can. She sees the inhabitants of Azeroth as primitive folk which need help and enlightenment. "Yhe young races cannot be blamed for their ignorance, it is our task to ejucate them." is secretly her slogan.
Because of this attitude she appears cold and distant, yet with a warm smile. This added with her snow white skin and hair, which vaguely seem to radiate a hint of light, makes her appearance resemble an angel of judgement, some would think. To others her hooves, tail and horns give her a resemblance of a demon is disguise.
