Mara

A young noble lady from the imperial capitol, secretly serving under the spymaster Patxi. She has quickly become notorious for her callous disregard for others and potent manipulation and scheming abilities. Those who have spent time with her can attest to her dysfunctional relationship to trust and intimacy. She is to be seen as extremely dangerous and potentially an enemy of the empire.

Unknown to most of the Expedition, she is heavily involved with the budding rebellion against the empire in the north, having made pacts and deals with them on multiple occasions. The most notable of these is the accord at the hidden city of Farrowstone.

In addition, there is a rumor that Mara is in fact haunted by a ghost, whom she can sometimes be caught talking to.
