- Position of PrivilegeNoble
Marcelline is accustomed to being treated as a person of consequence. She can secure an audience with local nobles, merchants, guild leaders, and other influential figures, and common folk may assume she has the right to make requests on their behalf. Her family's mining wealth and reputation reinforce this privilege, though her dirty traveling clothes often make people doubt it.

Appearance
Marcelline Qazbek is a young human woman with light skin, almond-shaped blue eyes, and short, wavy copper-colored hair combed back from her face. Smallpox scars mark both cheeks. She wears a filthy white kimono with open shoulders over a gray halter bodysuit, a simple brown corset as a belt, plain brown forearm braces, dark leather pants, and long boots. Many rings and earrings glitter against her otherwise practical clothing. A half-mask covers her chin and cheeks, leaving her eyes and scarred brow visible. Her spellbook is wrapped in oilcloth and secured beneath her corset.
Mannerisms
She keeps her hands folded behind her back when trying to appear calm, then unconsciously flexes her fingers as if directing an invisible assistant. She examines injuries with a clinical tilt of the head and addresses frightened patients in a soft, overly formal tone. When angry, she cleans already-clean spectacles or jewelry. She rarely removes her half-mask in public.
Personality
Marcelline is observant, practical, and painstakingly polite until someone rejects her assistance. She prefers useful kindness over comforting words and keeps detailed notes on every patient, injury, remedy, and mistake. Beneath her controlled manner is a woman who expects disaster to arrive without warning, so she prepares for it obsessively. She dislikes waste, theatrical heroics, and anyone who treats healing as a sign of weakness.
Ideals
Mercy is not a sentiment, it is a discipline. If I possess the means to preserve a life, I have a duty to use them, even when the patient is difficult, ungrateful, or afraid.
Bonds
She carries Bernard Veshar's watch badge sewn inside her kimono and intends to learn exactly who ordered the cannibal band to attack his party. She also feels responsible for the small mining villages whose workers made her family's fortune, whether they want her help or not.
Flaws
When frightened, she becomes controlling and quietly patronizing. She treats refusal of her help as evidence of ignorance, pride, or impending death. She is also deeply ashamed of having been merely average at the wizarding school her parents purchased for her, and she reacts badly when anyone suggests that her knowledge was bought rather than earned.
Quirks
Background
Marcelline Qazbek was born into a wealthy mining family whose silver and blue-stone shafts fed half a province. Her parents believed money could purchase every advantage, including a place for their disappointing daughter at a respected wizarding school. The school accepted her partly for her tuition and partly because her family sponsored several grants. Marcelline graduated neither brilliantly nor disgracefully. She was an average student who became fascinated by the practical boundary between life and death, studying restorative magic, bodily transformation, and the ways magical force could be shaped into protective hands. Her most reliable trick was a conjured hand used to shove, snatch, close doors, or slap weapons aside when she panicked.
