As Defender Kaluum
Defender Illona is a draenei paladin located at Auchenai Precipice in Talador.
History
Inspired by her grandfather at a young age, Illona traveled to Shattrath to fight against the Shadow Council. However, this was not enough to defeat the guards at Auchenai Precipice. She would come across the Alliance commander, who helped her prove her worth to Vindicator Dalu and Soulbinder Halaari. After this, she joins the commander's garrison. Sometime later, she heard of a crystal that gives power to those who will use it for good. The crystal was stolen by a demon named Ambassador Hellmaw. This was similar to a crystal her grandfather called the 
[Light of Exodus] and Illona wanted to recover it. Alongside the commander, she slaughtered the demon and took it back.
She can also be seen watching fights between garrison commanders in the Coliseum of Highmaul.
