Mental characteristics
Personal history
Morjiana was born on an Otterman flotilla floating in the Bay of Macot during a fierce spring storm. Even then, she exhibited the first signs of magical ability, projecting a small area of a mind-calming spell around her mother's ship. Starting at the age of six, then, she was accepted as an apprentice at the Arcane University of Macot, where she proved to have a prodigious talent, particularly in the Schools of Body Control and Mind Control. During her time as a young apprentice, she became one of the youngest ever apprentices to be certified as a Master in Magefist, benefiting greatly from her father's instruction in Otterwrestling to prove a formidable warrior.
In the later years of her apprenticeship, Morjiana specialized in Battlemagery, training extensively in Tortugann stick and in Gnommish smallsword. It was around this time that Morjiana met and began to court her future husband, Torius Vex. The pair would be wed shortly after they obtained the rank of Journeyman in an Otterfolk ceremony.
Both of them prodigies, they each achieved the ranks of Master and Grandmaster within a few short years of graduation. Heavy mage casualties in the beginning of Karvo's Crusade produced empty positions among the upper echelon, leading to their appointment as Magelords in 1070.
Employment
Since she completed her apprenticeship, Morjiana has consistently worked for the Guild of Mages, first as an archivist, and later as a professor. She is currently the Chair of Mage Combatives at the Arcane University of Macot, and has recently been appointed to the Synod of Seventy-Seven.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Morjiana has spent her life guided primarily by a strong protective instinct, which she has extended to her family, her friends, and now to Mages at large. It was this protective instinct that lead her to discover her own magical powers when, at the age of eight, she was able to cast a simple spell to aid in keeping her mother's ship safe during a storm. She specialized in the schools of Mind Control and Body Control for this reason.
Social
Religious Views
Morjiana is a devout Kolite, though like many Ottermanni, is often skeptical of the influence of its immense secular power.
