Name: Mairwen ferch Vaughn
Age: 19
Height: 5'3''
Bio: Mairwen was a wealthy noble from the country of Rozin, on the continent of Trieva. A distant relation of the royal family, her and the crown princess, Caron, were quite close. However, Mairwen loved nothing more than her mother, Lady Vaughn - sharp, dominant, and confident, her mother was everything that Mairwen wanted to be and then some. She was fond of her older brother, Ceinwen, as well, even with his foppish personality. And while her father wasn't a very friendly man, she could often be found in his study, discussing books with him.

The queen of Rozin, Carys, was very warlike and cruel, frequently invading nearby smaller nations in order to expand the territory of Rozin. Mairwen's mother was a frequent critic and protester of these actions, and had even been arrested for a few weeks at a time for her protests. However, her rank and relation to the royal family protected her and her family.

Mairwen thought that was the case, anyway. Until she woke up with a soldier dragging her out of bed.

Mairwen was told that her mother had tried to have Queen Carys and princess Caron assassinated. Mairwen didn't believe this was true, and demanded proof - proof that she got in the form of the fact that Queen Carys actually was dead. Caron had survived, and ordered the entire Vaughn family executed. Beaten and forced into a cage cart, Mairwen was to be transported to the capital for public execution - until her bodyguard, Nona, managed to break her out. The two fled into the night, but with nowhere to return to and no place to flee to, the two wandered aimlessly, starving and penniless. Mairwen wanted to return to the capital to save her family, until they heard of their execution.

Mairwen expected to die on the road, but her and Nona were found by an extremely shady man by the name of Chain. Chain knew who they were, and Mairwen feared that he was an agent of the royal family, until he explained that he belonged to the guild of assassins, Zodiac, that Lady Vaughn had hired to kill the royal family. Mairwen didn't believe him, until he supplied a letter with the Vaughn family seal on it. He took the two of them in, fed and clothed them, and offered to help them flee to some far-off island nation, as Lady Vaughn had helped him and his guild in the past.

Mairwen, instead, asked to be trained as an assassin, and that is how she now makes her living. She has a goal in mind, after all: getting answers about what really happened that night out of both Caron and Chain, finding out if her family really is dead, and, if need be, finishing what her mother started.

Personality: Manipulative, arrogant, and flighty, Mairwen has all the pomp of someone who's spent most of their life in the lap of luxury and all the venom of someone who'd become an assassin just for petty vengeance. Despite this, she's a surprisingly casual person, able to have a light conversation with most anyone she comes across. It's the practiced social niceties that come with being expected to wine and dine, but it's also just a part of her personality. However, she also has a nasty temper, and can easily become cruel and dismissive if she feels things aren't going her way.

Deep down, she's still a very caring, loving person, someone who forms very, very strong attachments to people she cares about, but those months of hopelessness and betrayal, plus three years living in the dirt and muck of the world of killing for hire, have built up quite a wall around those parts of herself.

Abilities: Somewhat skilled with knives, daggers, and shortswords, thanks to being trained as an asssassin for three years, and having gone on a few jobs for a band of assassins, thieves, and general ne'er do wells. However, it's something she's taken to late in life, so she's hardly a master fighter. She tends to rely more on her looks and social charms to get things done, when she has to.

Being a relative of the royal family of Rozin, she also has a trace amount of the blood of the dragon Arawn in her. This means almost nothing other than that she registers as partially demonic and divine to anyone who can sense those things.
