}}'''''Aisling MacBeryl''''' is a [[Races#Errant|Errant]] and [[Races#The Tempered|Tempered]] hybrid researcher working within the [[Environmental Division]] in the [[Adventurers' Guild]], having formerly worked in the [[Wayfarers' Division|Wayfarer's Division]].
== Appearance ==
Aisling stands at a moderately tall 178.4 cm and has a decently thin and athletic build.

== Personality ==
Aisling is a direct and determined individual trying to find and make her way in the world as a free spirit. She is very collected and decently sociable, capable of adapting to various situations, casual encounters or dangerous threats, rather quickly, and is always looking for something new to learn or experience. Perhaps as a result of this, they are struggling with finding their “role to play”, as they see the world and its ecosystem as a bunch of coexisting parts that are all important in value, but can’t seem to place themself within that system. To put it into thematic words, she doesn’t have a dream, and is trying to find hers.

== Biography ==
Aisling was born to her unknown Tempered parent in their hometown, soon taken in to be raised solely by her father Benny in Eversun City. They were taught and trained to enroll into the Adventurer's Guild as a Wayfarer at a very young age, but just within the past year of 1230, managed to get transferred to their preferred Environmental Division.

== Relationships ==
Feel free to message or dm me to discuss any possible relationships, Aisling is very open to socialize with others!

== Events ==
'''Sundance 1230'''

Aisling celebrated Sundance very calmly and simply, which she tends to do every year. They didn't celebrate too much of the holiday out of exhaustion from transferring Divisions, choosing to spend the evening with their father to share dinner together.

== Trivia ==
* Likes monsters, insects, battling, nature, and girls.
* She is a monster nerd. Just about anything monster-related, she cares about. They are a huge advocate to make sure that monsters are treated and addressed “properly”, disliking whenever they are dismissed as “simple scary, dangerous creatures”, despite the real terror they do cause. Part of this is informed by their studies and brief time in the Wayfarer’s Division, but primarily by her own interests.
* She is very learned in wilderness survival, with a mild interest in medicine, knowing how to make very simple remedies. This includes using monster parts as needed.
* They do not like being indoors or in any enclosed space. She will be outside any chance she gets, it brings her immense comfort to be in the open air.
* Not a huge fan of the Adventurer’s Guild. She would not be here if not for her father basically forcing her to be here. For that reason, they have quite a bit of resentment towards it, which has only piled on the more and more they’re there. She hasn’t quit due to not knowing where else she’d be.
* Battle style, she is a “dragoon-coded” tank. They’re perfectly capable of holding their own, but can take quite a few hits, and would prefer to play defensive in group adventures, with their Wind abilities geared towards support. She often tends to put her whole body into attacks and defense, amplified by her aspect for more mobility.
* Has a deep investment in dreams and their meanings.

}}'''''Mauriell Somata''''' is a Sea Angel [[Races#Submatar|Submatarius]] researcher working within the [[Arcane Sciences Division]] in the [[Adventurers' Guild]] as a member of the Staff & Scabbard subdivision.
== Appearance ==
Mauriell stands at a moderately short 147.3 cm and has a rather thin and average build. As a Sea Angel Submatar, they have pale blue skin with coral-colored hair, orange eyes and matching markings, most notably on their cheeks, chest, ends of fingers and toes, and at the ends of rounded horns on their head and small wings on their back. After being corrupted by Whimsy, some of these have begun to shift hue to be slightly pinkish, which is the most visible in his eyes and heart, as well as new circular markings appearing on his arms and legs, typically covered by long gloves and socks.

Her usual attire has her hair styled short and includes a tan shirt with chest and shoulder openings with its sleeves tied, loose blue shorts, matching white thigh-high socks and fingerless elbow-length gloves, as well as a long orange tailcoat and boots.

== Personality ==
Mauriell is a gentle and calmly composed individual with an intense and haphazard curiosity for all things arcane in nature, often willing to push themself into mortal peril for the sake of aetheric scientific discovery. He always has a soft, yet blank smiling expression on his face and never changes his lighthearted demeanor, talking in nonsensical metaphors, unfazed by even the most serious of moments. This extends to her opinion on Whimsy and even her own corruption as well, being rather open about its various physical and mental consequences despite the stigma and pressure it places on her.

== Biography ==
Mauriell was born and raised in one of the cities in The Reef of Umito, into a large family of mostly Sea Angel Submatarius known for their creative, particularly musical, endeavors. While Mauriell was taught how to sing as a child and did occasionally appear alongside their family during festival performances, it did very little to sway them from their passion for Aether, always playing around with the few spells he knew and aspiring to become a spellweaver once they were older. Between his studies of Aether and family business, he often wandered through the oceans to cool him off whenever overwhelmed, leading to one occasion as a teenager coming across the island of Lazlø. She was immediately intrigued by her new sensations in the water and swam onto the land to investigate, finding the entirety of the place and experience as a unique kind of beautiful that she had never experienced before. They explored for several hours until a throbbing headache began to build, and they turned to return home, only able to make it back to their family barely conscious by singing a simple melody. Taken into care immediately, it was found that he had been Corrupted by the island's Whimsy and was forever changed by its effects.

Mauriell though, found only further drive through this experience and continued with her plans to become a spellweaver, moving to Eversun to join its Guild despite everything, ending up in the Staff & Scabbard subdivision of the Arcane Sciences Division. In the 90 or so years since then, their corruption has been quite slow physically, much to their disappointment.

== Abilities ==
Mauriell's skillset is primarily made up with the usage of bubbles made from Water Aether, serving primarily as a very physically weak support.

'''Remedial Bubbles (Water)'''

A spell woven by Mauriell themself over years of study. This spell creates bubbles that are capable of healing wounds and partially steadying the mind when touched and popped.

'''Bubble Construct (Water)'''

One of the earliest spells Mauriell learned as a child. This spell creates bubbles that simply replicate the functionality of naturally occurring bubbles of water, often used by Mauriell for more efficient and fun movement.

== Trivia ==
* One of their most notable traits is the melody constantly playing in their head, which they can often be found humming idly. This melody is one they've known since childhood.
* He has a wide vocal range, but rests at a mezzo-soprano.
* As a consequence of their corruption, she can have *really* bad “Whimsy days”, overloading and overstimulating her physically and mentally. These have only gotten worse over the years.
* Their wings are not large enough to be able to properly fly, and instead Mauriell may simply float and hover around with them. The wings themselves also tend to flutter whenever Mauriell's curiosity is piqued.
* Even though he only uses Water and Whimsy Aether himself, he does have a decent knowledge of all non-Chaotic types of Aether construction from his research.
* She’s not much of a fighter and prefers to use her spells for healing, but can hold her own. She is quite squishy though, and tends to be on the evasive side while in combat.
* They tend to like all types of sweets but have a significant distaste for anything remotely bitter.
* He has a soft spot for children and cares deeply for them, but tries to keep his distance from them due to his corruption, seemingly one of the only things that makes him consider its risks.
* Their family is quite large, with her having multiple older and younger siblings, and likely multiple nieces or nephews.

Mauriell Somata/Events

2026-01-16T19:29:17Z

RainyNOISE: Hi Mauriell event page! I think everything should be here teehee :>

{{SubpageNavigation|1 Link Name=Character Page|1 Link Target=Mauriell Somata|2 Link Name=Relationships|2 Link Target=Mauriell Somata/Relationships}}

== '''1230''' ==
=== [[Phoenix Festival|'''Phoenix Fest 1230''']] ===
As part of the Arcane Science Division, Mauriell's contributions to Phoenix Fest 1230 were rather minimal. Most of their time was spent on demonstrations about Fire Aether, simply teaching others about the element and its properties. However, during his off hours, he often stopped by Eleanor Valentine's stand of knick-knacks for guidance, trinkets, and to deliver her some treats from Bunny Burrows's Sugar Cube caravan, which he himself frequented due his love for sweets and to try the CinnaBomb being sold. She insisted she tried it "for the sake of science", but the free daily sweets being offered to whoever could stomach it tells a different story. Mauriell was also recruited by Tia Alequin into a party to hunt a aether-charged boar for her Grand Bonfire Feast during the festival, with this sparking a dormant desire for adventure within her. As a healer, they tried their best to assist their party members and were paid handsomely for their efforts, taking a few sliced of the smoked meat home once prepared, as well as getting a single smooch from Tia herself.

=== '''Gourdfest 1230 / [[The Stageplay of Frights]]''' ===
Mauriell celebrated Gourdfest as they do every year, dressing up as an Ice Spirit due to their staunch beliefs in their existence. During the holiday, he attended the Kalebass Olli clashes, participating in its rhyming chants, and the Gourdfest Masquerade hosted by The Radiant Eagle family, participating in its open mic with some whimsical hymns.

Later in the holiday, she made the decision to join a call for adventurers heading into a Pitfall-level Dungeon in Alula, having been recruited by Selena Idris of the Wayfarers Division. They traveled alongside her, Astrophel Argentum, Hyalt Keylen, Jaina Ryder, Ruairi Cromwell in a carriage, singing together and being acquainted before arriving at Alula and heading into the dungeon a few days later. After getting his ticket from the mysterious ticket stand and the dungeon's path splits, he headed into the puzzling Hall of Comedy, followed only by Hyalt and Meridian Synastra, where Meridian performed a soliloquy, he pied a crying shadowy actor and started a pie fight, and Hyalt broke open an hourglass containing the rest of the actor with her arrows and claiming the Mask of Comedy.

Rejoining with the rest of the party from the Hall of Tragedy as well as emergency newcomers, Mauriell acts as support for those attacking the playwright, trying her best to keep up with how many people were present and already wounded from their hallway. After a combined attack with Hyalt, Jaina was knocked unconscious, and being led by Iris Opalina, Mauriell and Pendra attempt to bring her to safety, before Astrophel tears through them in a blinded rage, cutting through Mauriell's efforts and severely wounding them. All while this is happening, the stage has caught fire due to Selena and Ruairi's Fire Aether, and Meridian briefly caught the attention of the playwright with her attempt at an audition, but got too frightened to finish it, causing the playwright to scatter its papers all over the stage. One paper floats its way to Mauriell, designating a role for the "hero", and despite his hesitation, confusion, and injuries, he pushes himself onto the flaming stage, resisting Jun'ichi Nogami's attempts to restrain him down. Handed the Mask of Comedy by Hyalt and the Mask of Tragedy by Nivian, who freezes the stage's broken floorboards for them, Mauriell puts on the masks, being healed up by Eleanor Valentine. She performs on the ice, dancing and singing a song from her childhood, one sung in her childhood choir about the change of seasons. The performance... exhausts them, and with only a moment of peace afterwards, they quickly fall unconscious just before Leo Eridanus gets in the finishing blow.

He recovered outside and immediately report to Hanzekihel Oulieus, despite his insistence that he rest fully, visited by Hyalt and visiting Papa Keali's stand for sustenance and hydration. Through the week, she tried to celebrate Alula's Whisperween as much as she can with how little energy she has, primarily found in the theatre area and only spectating rather than joining in, once meeting with Ruairi and reassuring him of his ability to learn from his actions. However, something about them has felt rather off ever since the dungeon...

=== '''[[Sundance|'''Sundance 1230''']]''' ===
After the events of Gourdfest, Mauriell's mental state tanked, and they spent most of the preparation time for the holiday alone. On the day of Sundance however, early before the sun even rose, he placed a Wish Tag addressed to "anyone, please" onto a tree in Eversun City, before isolating himself for the rest of the year in his lab. As of now, it is uncertain if that Tag was ever picked up.

Mauriell herself received a tag from Ella, Selena, and one of their older brothers.

}}'''''Mauriell Somata''''' is a Sea Angel [[Races#Submatar|Submatarius]] researcher working within the [[Arcane Sciences Division]] in the [[Adventurers' Guild]] as a member of the Staff & Scabbard subdivision.
== Appearance ==
Mauriell stands at a moderately short 147.3 cm and has a rather thin and average build. As a Sea Angel Submatar, they have pale blue skin with coral-colored hair, orange eyes and matching markings, most notably on their cheeks, chest, ends of fingers and toes, and at the ends of rounded horns on their head and small wings on their back. After being corrupted by Whimsy, some of these have begun to shift hue to be slightly pinkish, which is the most visible in his eyes and heart, as well as new circular markings appearing on his arms and legs, typically covered by long gloves and socks.

Her usual attire has her hair styled short and includes a tan shirt with chest and shoulder openings with its sleeves tied, loose blue shorts, matching white thigh-high socks and fingerless elbow-length gloves, as well as a long orange tailcoat and boots.

== Personality ==
Mauriell is a gentle and calmly composed individual with an intense and haphazard curiosity for all things arcane in nature, often willing to push themself into mortal peril for the sake of aetheric scientific discovery. He always has a soft, yet blank smiling expression on his face and never changes his lighthearted demeanor, talking in nonsensical metaphors, unfazed by even the most serious of moments. This extends to her opinion on Whimsy and even her own corruption as well, being rather open about its various physical and mental consequences despite the stigma and pressure it places on her.

== Biography ==
Mauriell was born and raised in one of the cities in The Reef of Umito, into a large family of mostly Sea Angel Submatarius known for their creative, particularly musical, endeavors. While Mauriell was taught how to sing as a child and did occasionally appear alongside their family during festival performances, it did very little to sway them from their passion for Aether, always playing around with the few spells he knew and aspiring to become a spellweaver once they were older. Between his studies of Aether and family business, he often wandered through the oceans to cool him off whenever overwhelmed, leading to one occasion as a teenager coming across the island of Lazlø. She was immediately intrigued by her new sensations in the water and swam onto the land to investigate, finding the entirety of the place and experience as a unique kind of beautiful that she had never experienced before. They explored for several hours until a throbbing headache began to build, and they turned to return home, only able to make it back to their family barely conscious by singing a simple melody. Taken into care immediately, it was found that he had been Corrupted by the island's Whimsy and was forever changed by its effects.

Mauriell though, found only further drive through this experience and continued with her plans to become a spellweaver, moving to Eversun to join its Guild despite everything, ending up in the Staff & Scabbard subdivision of the Arcane Sciences Division. In the 90 or so years since then, their corruption has been quite slow physically, much to their disappointment.

== Abilities ==
Mauriell's skillset is primarily made up with the usage of bubbles made from Water Aether, serving primarily as a very physically weak support.

'''Remedial Bubbles (Water)'''

A spell woven by Mauriell themself over years of study. This spell creates bubbles that are capable of healing wounds and partially steadying the mind when touched and popped.

'''Bubble Construct (Water)'''

One of the earliest spells Mauriell learned as a child. This spell creates bubbles that simply replicate the functionality of naturally occurring bubbles of water, often used by Mauriell for more efficient and fun movement.

== Events ==
'''Phoenix Fest 1230'''

As part of the Arcane Science Division, Mauriell's contributions to Phoenix Fest 1230 were rather minimal. Most of their time was spent on demonstrations about Fire Aether, simply teaching others about the element and its properties. However, during his off hours, he often stopped by Eleanor Valentine's stand of knick-knacks for guidance, trinkets, and to deliver her some treats from Bunny Burrows's Sugar Cube caravan, which he himself frequented due his love for sweets and to try the CinnaBomb being sold. She insisted she tried it "for the sake of science", but the free daily sweets being offered to whoever could stomach it tells a different story. Mauriell was also recruited by Tia Alequin into a party to hunt a aether-charged boar for her Grand Bonfire Feast during the festival, with this sparking a dormant desire for adventure within her. As a healer, they tried their best to assist their party members and were paid handsomely for their efforts, taking a few sliced of the smoked meat home once prepared, as well as getting a single smooch from Tia herself.

'''Gourdfest 1230 / [[The Stageplay of Frights]]'''

Mauriell celebrated Gourdfest as they do every year, dressing up as an Ice Spirit due to their staunch beliefs in their existence. During the holiday, he attended the Kalebass Olli clashes, participating in its rhyming chants, and the Gourdfest Masquerade hosted by The Radiant Eagle family, participating in its open mic with some whimsical hymns.

Later in the holiday, she made the decision to join a call for adventurers heading into a Pitfall-level Dungeon in Alula, having been recruited by Selena Idris of the Wayfarers Division. They traveled alongside her, Astrophel Argentum, Hyalt Keylen, Jaina Ryder, Ruairi Cromwell in a carriage, singing together and being acquainted before arriving at Alula and heading into the dungeon a few days later. After getting his ticket from the mysterious ticket stand and the dungeon's path splits, he headed into the puzzling Hall of Comedy, followed only by Hyalt and Meridian Synastra, where Meridian performed a soliloquy, he pied a crying shadowy actor and started a pie fight, and Hyalt broke open an hourglass containing the rest of the actor with her arrows and claiming the Mask of Comedy.

Rejoining with the rest of the party from the Hall of Tragedy as well as emergency newcomers, Mauriell acts as support for those attacking the playwright, trying her best to keep up with how many people were present and already wounded from their hallway. After a combined attack with Hyalt, Jaina was knocked unconscious, and being led by Iris Opalina, Mauriell and Pendra attempt to bring her to safety, before Astrophel tears through them in a blinded rage, cutting through Mauriell's efforts and severely wounding them. All while this is happening, the stage has caught fire due to Selena and Ruairi's Fire Aether, and Meridian briefly caught the attention of the playwright with her attempt at an audition, but got too frightened to finish it, causing the playwright to scatter its papers all over the stage. One paper floats its way to Mauriell, designating a role for the "hero", and despite his hesitation, confusion, and injuries, he pushes himself onto the flaming stage, resisting Jun'ichi Nogami's attempts to restrain him down. Handed the Mask of Comedy by Hyalt and the Mask of Tragedy by Nivian, who freezes the stage's broken floorboards for them, Mauriell puts on the masks, being healed up by Eleanor Valentine. She performs on the ice, dancing and singing a song from her childhood, one sung in her childhood choir about the change of seasons. The performance... exhausts them, and with only a moment of peace afterwards, they quickly fall unconscious just before Leo Eridanus gets in the finishing blow.

He recovered outside and immediately report to Hanzekihel Oulieus, despite his insistence that he rest fully, visited by Hyalt and visiting Papa Keali's stand for sustenance and hydration. Through the week, she tried to celebrate Alula's Whisperween as much as she can with how little energy she has, primarily found in the theatre area and only spectating rather than joining in, once meeting with Ruairi and reassuring him of his ability to learn from his actions. However, something about them has felt rather off ever since the dungeon...

'''Sundance 1230'''

After the events of Gourdfest, Mauriell's mental state tanked, and they spent most of the preparation time for the holiday alone. On the day of Sundance however, early before the sun even rose, he placed a Wish Tag addressed to "anyone, please" onto a tree in Eversun City, before isolating himself for the rest of the year in his lab. As of now, it is uncertain if that Tag was ever picked up.

== Trivia ==
* One of their most notable traits is the melody constantly playing in their head, which they can often be found humming idly. This melody is one they've known since childhood.
* He has a wide vocal range, but rests at a mezzo-soprano.
* As a consequence of their corruption, she can have *really* bad “Whimsy days”, overloading and overstimulating her physically and mentally. These have only gotten worse over the years.
* Their wings are not large enough to be able to properly fly, and instead Mauriell may simply float and hover around with them. The wings themselves also tend to flutter whenever Mauriell's curiosity is piqued.
* Even though he only uses Water and Whimsy Aether himself, he does have a decent knowledge of all non-Chaotic types of Aether construction from his research.
* She’s not much of a fighter and prefers to use her spells for healing, but can hold her own. She is quite squishy though, and tends to be on the evasive side while in combat.
* They tend to like all types of sweets but have a significant distaste for anything remotely bitter.
* He has a soft spot for children and cares deeply for them, but tries to keep his distance from them due to his corruption, seemingly one of the only things that makes him consider its risks.
* Their family is quite large, with her having multiple older and younger siblings, and likely multiple nieces or nephews.

}}'''''Benny MacBeryl''''' is a [[Races#Errant|Errant]] instructor working within the [[Education Division]] in the [[Adventurers' Guild]], having formerly worked in the [[Wayfarers' Division|Wayfarer's Division]].
== Appearance ==
Benny stands at an average 170cm and has a moderately fat and muscular build. As an Errant, he has tanned skin with multiple scars from battle, short sandy brown hair on his head, arms, and legs, and golden eyes.

== Personality ==
Benny, affectionately nicknamed "Big Ben", is an intrepid and heartwarmingly jolly individual driven by his passion and drive for all types of adventure, acting as a courageous figure and teacher to inspire others to pursue their own without a wrinkle of fear. His disposition can only be described as sunny; constantly smiling, laughing, and generally being easygoing with all of those around him, with a little bit of a gritty competitive spark to boot. However, in his deeply prideful nature, he tends to get rigidly stuck in his ways and methods, rather staunch and unchanging even when simply learning something new may benefit him.

== Biography ==
In Benny's youth, he was quite the cheerful Wayfarer within the Guild, having joined it rather quickly once he was 18, and jumping to take any job that he could find, always traveling wherever and whenever he could. In the year 1206, he managed to meet someone on one of his quests, resulting in the birth of his daughter, Aisling, the following year. This someone stayed at their home, with Benny returning to Eversun City alone to raise his new child, with Benny deciding to transfer over to the Education Division a few years later to teach and inspire young adventurers with his endless spirit, knowledge, and experience.

== Relationships ==
TBD! Feel free to message me to discuss any possible relationships!

== Events ==
'''Gourdfest 1230'''

Benny celebrated Gourdfest as he does every year, wearing a rather aged costume his daughter made for him out of clay when she was younger and refraining from any spiritual events due to his distain for them. However, he did repeatedly visit Eleanor Valentine's Ceramic Respite throughout the holiday, learning how to create pots to put up in his classroom to try and expand his creative abilities.

'''Sundance 1230'''

Benny celebrated Sundance very calmly and simply, which he tends to do every year. The evening before the day of Sundance, he placed out Wish Tags to his class from that year, each one of his colleagues, and to his daughter, choosing to spend the evening with her to share dinner together.

== Trivia ==
* He was born without his lower left arm, and when meeting new people, often jokes about having lost it during one of his wayfaring jobs.
* He's rather adverse to Aether, outright refusing to use it whenever he can avoid to.
* He is very knowledgeable about all types of weapons, as well as how to use them, even if he defaults to his Guild-licensed warhammer.
* His classes focus on general questing knowledge, including types of quests, how they are process through the Wayfarer Division, and generally anything related to adventure, with his classes best suited for students seeking to be Wayfarers.
* Outside of teaching, he blacksmiths and works with metal, having an interest in craftsmanship.
* While he's not one to talk about his past before his Wayfaring days, he was raised to have a rather intense work ethic, getting by with the barest of minimums. In spite of this, he wanted and wants to make sure Aisling has it better than he did.
* He's really good at preparing cold or frozen food, most notably ice cream.

However, in his prideful nature, he tends to get rigidly stuck in his ways and methods, staunch and unchanging even when doing so may benefit him.

== Biography ==
In Benny's youth, he was quite the cheerful Wayfarer within the Guild, having joined it rather quickly once he was 18, and jumping to take any job that he could find, always traveling wherever and whenever he could. In the year 1206, he managed to meet someone on one of his quests, resulting in the birth of his daughter, Aisling, the following year. This someone stayed at their home, with Benny returning to Eversun City alone to raise his new child, with Benny deciding to transfer over to the Education Division a few years later to teach and inspire young adventurers with his endless spirit, knowledge, and experience.

== Relationships ==
TBD! Feel free to message me to discuss any possible relationships!

== Events ==
'''Gourdfest 1230'''

Benny celebrated Gourdfest as he does every year, wearing a rather aged costume his daughter made for him out of clay when she was younger and refraining from any spiritual events due to his distain for them. However, he did repeatedly visit Eleanor Valentine's Ceramic Respite throughout the holiday, learning how to create pots to put up in his classroom to try and expand his creative abilities.

'''Sundance 1230'''

Benny celebrated Sundance very calmly and simply, which he tends to do every year. The evening before the day of Sundance, he placed out Wish Tags to his class from that year, each one of his colleagues, and to his daughter, choosing to spend the evening with her to share dinner together.

== Trivia ==
* He was born without his lower left arm, and when meeting new people, often jokes about having lost it during one of his wayfaring jobs.
* He's rather adverse to Aether, outright refusing to use it whenever he can avoid to.
* He is very knowledgeable about all types of weapons, as well as how to use them, even if he defaults to his Guild-licensed warhammer.
* His classes focus on general questing knowledge, including types of quests, how they are process through the Wayfarer Division, and generally anything related to adventure, with his classes best suited for students seeking to be Wayfarers.
* Outside of teaching, he blacksmiths and works with metal, having an interest in craftsmanship.
* While he's not one to talk about his past before his Wayfaring days, he was raised to have a rather intense work ethic, getting by with the barest of minimums. In spite of this, he wanted and wants to make sure Aisling has it better than he did.
* He's really good at preparing cold or frozen food, most notably ice cream.

}}'''''Mauriell Somata''''' is a Sea Angel [[Races#Submatar|Submatarius]] researcher working within the [[Arcane Sciences Division]] in the [[Adventurers' Guild]] as a member of the Staff & Scabbard subdivision.
== Appearance ==
Mauriell stands at a moderately short 147.3 cm and has a rather thin and average build. As a Sea Angel Submatar, they have pale blue skin with coral-colored hair, orange eyes and matching markings, most notably on their cheeks, chest, ends of fingers and toes, and at the ends of rounded horns on their head and small wings on their back. After being corrupted by Whimsy, some of these have begun to shift hue to be slightly pinkish, which is the most visible in his eyes and heart, as well as new circular markings appearing on his arms and legs, typically covered by long gloves and socks.

Her usual attire has her hair styled short and includes a tan shirt with chest and shoulder openings with its sleeves tied, loose blue shorts, matching white thigh-high socks and fingerless elbow-length gloves, as well as a long orange tailcoat and boots.

== Personality ==
Mauriell is a gentle and calmly composed individual with an intense and haphazard curiosity for all things arcane in nature, often willing to push themself into mortal peril for the sake of aetheric scientific discovery. He always has a soft, yet blank smiling expression on his face and never changes his lighthearted demeanor, talking in nonsensical metaphors, unfazed by even the most serious of moments. This extends to her opinion on Whimsy and even her own corruption as well, being rather open about its various physical and mental consequences despite the stigma and pressure it places on her.

== Biography ==
Mauriell was born and raised in one of the cities in The Reef of Umito, into a large family of mostly Sea Angel Submatarius known for their creative, particularly musical, endeavors. While Mauriell was taught how to sing as a child and did occasionally appear alongside their family during festival performances, it did very little to sway them from their passion for Aether, always playing around with the few spells he knew and aspiring to become a spellweaver once they were older. Between his studies of Aether and family business, he often wandered through the oceans to cool him off whenever overwhelmed, leading to one occasion as a teenager coming across the island of Lazlø. She was immediately intrigued by her new sensations in the water and swam onto the land to investigate, finding the entirety of the place and experience as a unique kind of beautiful that she had never experienced before. They explored for several hours until a throbbing headache began to build, and they turned to return home, only able to make it back to their family barely conscious by singing a simple melody. Taken into care immediately, it was found that he had been Corrupted by the island's Whimsy and was forever changed by its effects.

Mauriell though, found only further drive through this experience and continued with her plans to become a spellweaver, moving to Eversun to join its Guild despite everything, ending up in the Staff & Scabbard subdivision of the Arcane Sciences Division. In the 90 or so years since then, their corruption has been quite slow physically, much to their disappointment.

== Abilities ==
Mauriell's skillset is primarily made up with the usage of bubbles made from Water Aether, serving primarily as a very physically weak support.

'''Remedial Bubbles (Water)'''

A spell woven by Mauriell themself over years of study. This spell creates bubbles that are capable of healing wounds and partially steadying the mind when touched and popped.

'''Bubble Construct (Water)'''

One of the earliest spells Mauriell learned as a child. This spell creates bubbles that simply replicate the functionality of naturally occurring bubbles of water, often used by Mauriell for more efficient and fun movement.

== Relationships ==
Feel free to message me to discuss any possible relationships, Mauriell is very open to socialize with others!

[[Monica Holst|'''Monica Holst''']]

Mauriell connects with Monica after her Whimsy corruption is made known to the public during Phoenix Fest 1230. They offer to help Monica learn how to control her powers due to their knowledge on the subject, though Mauriell’s usual cheery demeanor regarding it is quite offputting to Monica.

== Events ==
'''Phoenix Fest 1230'''

As part of the Arcane Science Division, Mauriell's contributions to Phoenix Fest 1230 were rather minimal. Most of their time was spent on demonstrations about Fire Aether, simply teaching others about the element and its properties. However, during his off hours, he often stopped by Eleanor Valentine's stand of knick-knacks for guidance, trinkets, and to deliver her some treats from Bunny Burrows's Sugar Cube caravan, which he himself frequented due his love for sweets and to try the CinnaBomb being sold. She insisted she tried it "for the sake of science", but the free daily sweets being offered to whoever could stomach it tells a different story. Mauriell was also recruited by Tia Alequin into a party to hunt a aether-charged boar for her Grand Bonfire Feast during the festival, with this sparking a dormant desire for adventure within her. As a healer, they tried their best to assist their party members and were paid handsomely for their efforts, taking a few sliced of the smoked meat home once prepared, as well as getting a single smooch from Tia herself.

'''Gourdfest 1230 / [[The Stageplay of Frights]]'''

Mauriell celebrated Gourdfest as they do every year, dressing up as an Ice Spirit due to their staunch beliefs in their existence. During the holiday, he attended the Kalebass Olli clashes, participating in its rhyming chants, and the Gourdfest Masquerade hosted by The Radiant Eagle family, participating in its open mic with some whimsical hymns.

Later in the holiday, she made the decision to join a call for adventurers heading into a Pitfall-level Dungeon in Alula, having been recruited by Selena Idris of the Wayfarers Division. They traveled alongside her, Astrophel Argentum, Hyalt Keylen, Jaina Ryder, Ruairi Cromwell in a carriage, singing together and being acquainted before arriving at Alula and heading into the dungeon a few days later. After getting his ticket from the mysterious ticket stand and the dungeon's path splits, he headed into the puzzling Hall of Comedy, followed only by Hyalt and Meridian Synastra, where Meridian performed a soliloquy, he pied a crying shadowy actor and started a pie fight, and Hyalt broke open an hourglass containing the rest of the actor with her arrows and claiming the Mask of Comedy.

Rejoining with the rest of the party from the Hall of Tragedy as well as emergency newcomers, Mauriell acts as support for those attacking the playwright, trying her best to keep up with how many people were present and already wounded from their hallway. After a combined attack with Hyalt, Jaina was knocked unconscious, and being led by Iris Opalina, Mauriell and Pendra attempt to bring her to safety, before Astrophel tears through them in a blinded rage, cutting through Mauriell's efforts and severely wounding them. All while this is happening, the stage has caught fire due to Selena and Ruairi's Fire Aether, and Meridian briefly caught the attention of the playwright with her attempt at an audition, but got too frightened to finish it, causing the playwright to scatter its papers all over the stage. One paper floats its way to Mauriell, designating a role for the "hero", and despite his hesitation, confusion, and injuries, he pushes himself onto the flaming stage, resisting Jun'ichi Nogami's attempts to restrain him down. Handed the Mask of Comedy by Hyalt and the Mask of Tragedy by Nivian, who freezes the stage's broken floorboards for them, Mauriell puts on the masks, being healed up by Eleanor Valentine. She performs on the ice, dancing and singing a song from her childhood, one sung in her childhood choir about the change of seasons. The performance... exhausts them, and with only a moment of peace afterwards, they quickly fall unconscious just before Leo Eridanus gets in the finishing blow.

He recovered outside and immediately report to Hanzekihel Oulieus, despite his insistence that he rest fully, visited by Hyalt and visiting Papa Keali's stand for sustenance and hydration. Through the week, she tried to celebrate Alula's Whisperween as much as she can with how little energy she has, primarily found in the theatre area and only spectating rather than joining in, once meeting with Ruairi and reassuring him of his ability to learn from his actions. However, something about them has felt rather off ever since the dungeon...

'''Sundance 1230'''

After the events of Gourdfest, Mauriell's mental state tanked, and they spent most of the preparation time for the holiday alone. On the day of Sundance however, early before the sun even rose, he placed a Wish Tag addressed to "anyone, please" onto a tree in Eversun City, before isolating himself for the rest of the year in his lab. As of now, it is uncertain if that Tag was ever picked up.

== Trivia ==
* One of their most notable traits is the melody constantly playing in their head, which they can often be found humming idly. This melody is one they've known since childhood.
* His wings are not large enough to be able to properly fly, and instead Mauriell may simply float and hover around with them. The wings themselves also tend to flutter whenever Mauriell's curiosity is piqued.
* Even though she only uses Water and Whimsy Aether herself, she does have a decent knowledge of all non-Chaotic types of Aether construction from her research.
* They tend to like all types of sweets but have a significant distaste for anything remotely bitter.
* He has a soft spot for children and cares deeply for them, but tries to keep his distance from them due to his corruption, seemingly one of the only things that makes him consider its risks.
* Their family is quite large, with her having multiple older and younger siblings, and likely multiple nieces or nephews.

Whiskers & Wonders

2025-12-23T19:29:40Z

RainyNOISE: Added staff section, added four NPCs, and added the Eversun City category!

'''''Whiskers & Wonders''''' is a high-class café that's themed around [[Purrtôme|'''purrtômes''']] and is home to many of these magical creatures. It's located next to an [[Avistus|'''avistus''']] carriage checkpoint at one of the many entrances to the '''[[Market District]]''', and thanks to this location, it receives a lot of foot traffic. While it is very expensive to purchase and dine at this facility, the provisions are high-quality and worth the gold.

Its hours of operations are [tentative].

'''[Page is still a work in progress!]'''

== Functions ==

=== Café Lobby ===
The first floor of W&W is a very cozy lobby with a long counter with room for multiple baristas to move around and make drinks. It leads into a kitchen where many chefs and bakers make the pastries in-house. Everything is made fresh daily. There are many tables and booths for the public to sit and interact with the many purrtômes scurrying about the premises.

=== Second Floor ===
The second floor is another dining area where the guests can interact with the purrtômes. It also leads out to a balcony with chairs and tables and umbrellas to enjoy the weather while sipping tea or coffee.

=== Adoption Shelter ===
If a patron falls in love with a purrtôme, they may opt to adopt it! The workers there are all trained in assisting with paperwork to adopt one of these ghostly creatures and will provide a starter kit and booklet to make sure you have everything you need and are educated in taking care of a purrtôme.

== Appearance ==
W&W has a gothic-like elegance to the interior and exterior. The '''''wonders''''' the name refers to is magic, and there are many rumors on how the business uses magic to cook, clean, and provide the best experience for their guests. There's an invisible aetheric barrier surrounding the café that keeps the purrtômes in, since they can be very sneaky and hide in patrons' shadows or simply walk through solid objects. There's a garden in the front and back of the facility that grows catnip.

The interior of the café is dimly lit and the décor matches the possible colors of the cores purrtômes have in their tails. There are tea sets that are modeled after these tails, as well as the employee uniforms match this aesthetic as well. When you enter the café, you can easily tell this is is an expensive endeavor. But you will not leave disappointed if you choose to spend your hard-earned gold.

== Employees ==

* Baristas
* Cleaners (the purrtômes are dusty...)
* [[Environmental Division]] volunteers to ensure the purrtômes are happy
* [[Arcane Sciences Division]] volunteers to maintain the aetheric barrier
* Waiters/waitresses
* [[Education Division]] volunteers to provide informational booklets
* Bakers
