☠ Name: Mariatte Lahvayeau
Age: Her age is under speculation, but she appears as a vibrant 19-21 arc old. {Is actually 35}
Race: Human
Organization (if any): Herself
Skills: Domain Magic:
Necromancy: {76}
Attunement: {51}
Defiance {Air}: {22}
Research: {51}
Blades - Rapier: {30}
Throwing Knives: {20}
Bio: Not much is known about the woman overall background, most of it is shrouded in mystery & superstition. What is know however is that, from Mariatte's own admitting, she is an isolationist, enjoying her own company rather than that of a group. It explains her reasoning for not taking on too many proteges in magic. Because of the isolation caused by this lifestyle, Mariatte has extremely poor social skills and tends to be heavily sarcastic in conversation and uncaring towards the needs of others she finds to be uninteresting. To those that have the fortune or misfortune of meeting her, realize quickly that Mariatte does not get along well with the others especially non-mages. She is extremely dangerous in combat, having spent most of her life being forged in the harsh unforgiving climate of Yaralon. As a mage of many talents, her demeanor towards most regardless of their status is often seen against what is usually considered culturally acceptable in Yaralon. She does not hide the fact that she values power & magic over most anything else and is not averse to using any means necessary to gain what she desires, hiding her intent behind quaint and polite mannerisms.
Relationship: Even as a loner, Mariatte is still a woman who is always looking for power. Reluctant at first she never wanted to take Cervantez as a protege' but there was something about him, something about the sparkle in his eye when he read her books. She figured he'd be nice little tool in her pursuit of power. It wasn't an easy choice, but after he visited her three times, persistent that she show him the way, out of mere annoyance and a budding curiosity for the young man she initiated him. Their relationship is not like most, as Cervantez is the one person she can feel at ease around, being that in some way she see him as the child she could never have. She treats him in a very mother fashion, and delights in his fervent reverence of her, fear what she might do to him if he were to ever cross the line. At first, she was fearful of initiating another, but being a woman on a quest for greater power, she has taken a gamble on the young man, and from what she's gathered, it was a gamble well played.☠

Personality: Sadart is abrasive and not very approachable. He rarely shows emotion, giving a cold impression to others, picking up on the Yari way when dealing with non-marked individuals. His manner of speaking tends to be blunt and insulting, his comments are frequently coarse or otherwise harsh, and he is not above provoking or belittling those who irritate him. His sense of humor tends toward the dry, insulting, and dark. All of this makes him unsettling to a great number of people besides those that have come to know him.
Relationship to PC: Former lover, close friend of his mother
Personality: On the surface, Minerva is genuinely kind & peaceful as she has been since she was a little girl. Though underneath that due to the past she is very cold & ruthless when it comes to those who threaten her family & friends. She has an air strength & elegance about her and has a loving attitude which makes her very approachable, unlike her husband. She also has a great hatred for those who forsake honor, no matter where they're from. On the inside she is silent and vigilant, never hesitating to shield her spouse from harm. She is always faithful to her country and fellow Yari. She is not openly talkative at first, and she prefers to analyze people and their actions. She is very protective of Sadart & Cervantez and willing to sacrifice herself for their happiness. She is very logical and she doesn't act out of anger or instinct.
