Maryam, the Apothecary Witch, is a graceful elder elf with tanned skin and bright topaz eyes. Her flowing, tea-colored hair is streaked with grey, neatly tied back to reveal a wise yet cute visage. Amidst her cozy alchemical lab, she delves into ancient tomes, guided by her ethereal spider familiar.

Name: "Maryam, Apothecary Witch"
 "Design Maryam, an older but cute elf who embodies the spirit of discerning care. Her form is slender and graceful, with tanned skin that just shows a few hints of wrinkles; especially around the eyes and corners of her mouth. Her shoulder-length, flowing hair is the color of tea lightened quite a bit with milk, streaked with grey, and is pulled back into a loose ponytail to keep it out of her face. She wears a small pointed witch's hat. Her eyes are bright and inquisitive, the color of topaz, with wrinkles at the corners to indicate her age. She is wearing simple rimless spectacles. Her attire is well-fitted and well-worn, a mix of silk, leather, and cotton articles; her fashion is renaissance-influenced, but practical for an apothecary. She is concentrating deeply, reading the tome of witchcraft that she dabbles in. Her familiar, a small translucent ghost in the shape of a spider, hovers above her shoulder, looking down at the tome along with her. Maryam's well-manicured, delicate hands are busy; one is preparing to turn the page of the tome she's reading, while the other reaches out to absent-mindedly pet her familiar. She exudes an aura of competence and care, though there is an undeniable sense of excitement beneath her professional exterior. Maryam looks right at home sitting at a desk in her alchemical lab; with a smattering of tools, witchy ingredients, and potions on her desk, and more on the set of shelves on the wall behind her. A candle on her desk, as well as a few on the shelves and work surfaces around her, illuminate the scene with soft, golden light; shadows lurk in the recessed corners of the lab. The atmosphere should feel cozy and mystical, with a hint of the thrill of the unknown, capturing her questioning intelligence and her worn but effortless beauty. The scene embodies the essence of a Pathfinder Forensic Sciences Investigator—curious, knowledgeable, and deeply engrossed in a special interest."
