Enwynn

Enwynn (free-elf, female) is an Elf from Uft (Craftimark: Time period not decided, sometime in the 4000s).

Enwynn was a powerful mage who had a strong interest in time. In her research she ascended to Dhytherhood. She eventually invented or discovered time travel magic, which sent her back to sometime in the 2000s AD. While there, she eventually invented time travel technology that could take her back to roughly the time when she lived. 

The remains of Enwynn's forward-time-traveling technology was discovered and a team of government-sponsered scientists and engineers and after they got it working initially, parts of their team were sent forward to the same time as Enwynn post-time-travel. Enwynn worked with this team to construct the initial portals. This portal system is still intact, and Enwynn regularly travels between time periods. 

The scientist/engineering team separated from their government, fearing the portal technology would be misused. They remained sufficiently funded by the generously donations of Enwynn's. However, one of the members of that team betrayed Enwynn and the rest of them, selling the blueprints for the portals on the black market (when the team discovered this, Enwynn cursed him and he no longer has any memory of the past 5 years). As a result, anyone theoretically can build a set of time-travel portals; the world's disbelief in time travel and the high material cost required to build the portals has kept them from revolutionizing the world. A few different criminal organizations and at least one government (of a small, unimportant country somewhere near 2000s-AD-Russia) have built time-travel portals. All portals built with the leaked blueprints come out at the same time-interval, which is to say till about 4080 NA8, though at different locations. Only Enwynn's original team of scientists or herself truly understand how the portals work and can change the time travel distances, though short jumps (less than multiple millennia) are flat-out impossible.
