Melissa and Lyzander have recently arrived in Grantabrugge from Roma. She's a warden by trade, but dabbles in alchemy. A bit more dour and sensible than her somewhat mad travelling companion.

She is here in Grantabrugge to assist Lyzander with his work on the Mystical Practices and Organisations of the Barbarian Peoples, and generally perform Science on anything that looks interesting.

Now works as a Porter for the College of Light to keep herself occupied. Spends her spare time doing alchemical research and writing pamphlets about /Axes

Has been mutilated in response for possibly murdering William Oliver.

Executed by Bathory for possibly murdering William Oliver.


1. Who are you?

Melissa of Roma, Warden, and Porter at the College of Light

2. Do you have any brothers or sisters?

The question means nothing. We are raised collectively in small groups who would be as close as kin if we were barbarians. So both yes, and perhaps no.

3. How old are you?

Two hundred, give or take.

4. What's your height?

Three cubits three and three quarter hands.

5. Are you a virgin?

That's not a question we discuss openly in civilised society.

6. Who's your mate/spouse?

None yet. In another few hundred years when I've settled down.

7. Do you have any kids?

See above.

8. What's your favorite food?

A well-made pasty. Hearty, filling, and portable, ideal for the road and perfect in cold drizzle late at night to warm the bones.

9. Have you killed anyone?

Sometimes exile is not a meaningful punishment, and sometimes defense leaves no time for justice.

10. Have any secrets?

They say you collect one secret a year you can never tell anyone.

11. Do you love anyone?

I love the People, and I am loyal to my compatriots and my schola. But I haven't bonded yet, not for another hundred years.

12. What is your job?

Recently, I'm a porter at the College of Light, and an alchemist on the side.

13. Boy or girl?

I realise that the barbarians are often confused by our practical and sensible modes of dress, and our forms of facial hair. Nonetheless, I am a lady, for the purposes of gendering the terms in Common.

14. What do you do to relax?

Distil reagants and devise odd preparations. I'm working on a very interesting administration of Ferrous Tar that I think I've nearly cracked.

15. There's a person who's teasing you; what could you do?

Why heed the words of the lesser races? If they try to move to violence, then I will simply out-violence them.

16. Let's say you have a person who you really care about but she/he doesn't know about your feelings. How do you tell her/him?

We don't discuss courtship. For a simple liason, a short note would be appropriate and conventional.

17. What do you regret most in life?

There are no regrets, only lessons to be learned for the future. But the loss of those who I couldn't save will always weigh on me.

18. Do you like your maker?

We venerate the gods of our people, though they sleep, for the gifts they gave us of soul and strength.

19. What do you fear?

Exile from the People. Who wouldn't?
