Quote:• Born the only illegitimate child of a slightly incestuous union between two distant Melonii cousins. Her father perished in a hunting accident before the birth that killed her dam. As a result, the bastard girl was nursed by a busy aunt with her own brood to tend -- her care pushed into the responsible hands of a lonely granddam.

• Her granddam perished shortly before her first year of life and the girl dispersed from the Crossing, wandering into Teekon (and a few relatives) as a yearling. She pledged to a clan of her blood, The Melonii, briefly but failed to find her niche.

• Left the Wilds after a few months. Rather than return home, the Priestess ended up aligning with a coven east of the Hag's Fen. Here, she devoted two years to the scrupulous study of herbalism, medicine, astrology, naturalism, and magic.

• Now in the prime of her life, the witch has ventured south again -- curious about the lands she visited in her youth and looking for something new.

- Encounters Eldritch at Blackfeather Woods and the two agree to travel together, Mati promising to teach the other witch about the Daedra and the pair hopeful of creating their own coven.

- The two are unsuccessful in locating any other witches or worshippers of the Daedra and decide to return to Eldritch's former pack, Ivory Rose. They are accepted into the ranks by Rowan.

- Eldritch would go on to take a leadership role and later assume the mantle of Ivory Rose entirely when Rowan disappeared -- assumed to have deserted the dwindling pack.

-- Ivory Rose disbands.
