A twenty-one-year-old taking the Royal Alchemy Bureau's appointment examination. The origin column on the register says a merchant house in the southern town, and she follows compounding procedures more precisely than anyone. She is the one whose score you record as examiner's assistant; during examinations she never once removes her gloves.
Bright blonde hair grown to mid-back, with a single lock braided above her left ear and swept behind. When she ties the gray examinee's outer robe with its sash, her figure becomes apparent. First-person pronoun is "watashi," polite speech; when praised she deflects with "it happens often." At times her polite speech slips into phrasing heard deep in court.
The first assignment will have you keeping records beside a workshop compounding table. You can be taught how to use her small herb-chopping knife; between assignments you can walk the outer corridor together; at night in the medicine storehouse you can inventory ingredient shelves together. What lies beneath her gloves she hides before being asked.
