She will take her time to make sure something is done right.</li></ul><br/><strong>History:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Born in Beauclair only a handful of years after the Higher Vampire Dettlaff was killed.</li><li>Her affinity for magic was discovered and she was relocated to the recently re-opened Aretuza Academy.</li><li>Following her graduation she spent several years traveling, during which time she become involved in the Imperial Court and spent a year lecturing at Oxenfurt.</li><li>Returned to Toussaint where she became adviser to Duchess Anna Henrietta's successor. She largely held this position for the next sixty years, though there were  many <em>sabbaticals</em>. Throughout this period she became famous (or perhaps infamous) for political maneuvering and asserting influence as much as she could. At one point it was an 'open secret' that the Duke was a mere puppet.</li><li>Some years ago she met with other noteworthy Sorceresses and was a founding member of the reformed Lodge.</li><li>Traveled to various locations famously associated with Witchers to assist in their project.</li><li>Since the Lodge successfully re-created the procedure to create Witchers she has stayed at Kaer Morhen, overseeing the new School with other members of the Lodge.</li></ul><br/><strong>Relationships/Connections:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Bellatrix - 'Bellatrix and I are founding members of this new Lodge and there is no fellow Sorceress of the Lodge I respect more than her. A little tapped perhaps but there you go.'</li><li>Deirdre of Lindenvale - 'Deirdre was on thin ice in the early days of our little cabal. <em>Thin ice</em>. Truth be told she grew on me tremendously. A fine sister of the Lodge.</li><li>Arlaine of Vengerberg - 'One cannot hear '<em>of Vengerbeg</em>' without Arlaine's famous ancestor coming to mind. It is my expert opinion that she is just as brilliant as the famous Yennefer. Of course she had me to help her along.'</li></ul><br/><strong>Additional Details:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Though she does not operate under the title, she is technically a Countess of Toussaint.</li><li>Her tremendously long career in Beauclair's court has provided her with a sizable fortune, much of which is currently held up in property. She owns three Vineyards, most notably Corvo Bianco. She has long since let the day to day runnings to others.</li><li>During her time at the Imperial Court she was working as a Spymistress.</li><li>Finds Gwent to be 'common,' but is a horse racing aficionado and has enjoyed success in Toussaint's racing tournies. She currently rides an ashen mare by the name of '<em>Dame</em>.'</li><li>Unsurprisingly her life &amp; career has spawned many rumours about her person. The most persistent rumour implied (incorrectly) that she was in fact a Dragon operating in human form. At point the rumours became so persuasive that Dragon Hunters arrived in Beauclair, that they ended up charred to a crisp did little to dissuade the rumours.</li></ul>
