Humans:
Name: Sirrei
Age: 32 (March 2990)
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Up to adopter
Rank: Lady Holder
Physical Appearance: Warm chestnut hair, bright hazel eyes, entirely non-sickly in appearance. Rest up to adopter.
Personality: Manipulative in the extreme and smart. Cares for people in the sense that they are only useful if they're okay. Arrogant. Acts sickly/weak and quiet around her husband and other important people.
History: Sirrei grew up knowing she would be great. She was not born in Bitra - no, she was born to Benden dragonriders, a bronzerider and a drudge in the weyr. It was the bronzerider's arrogance that rubbed off on her, rather than the drudge's humility. Still, when she was 18 she decided she didn't want to remain in the Weyr, not with the war the way it was. She left for Benden Hold with the end goal indeed being marriage to a Lord Holder-to-be. Except Tyreminoar was already married so she went to the next closest Hold: Bitra. Lord Holder Raluran was 16 turns her senior but unmarried due to the death of his previous wife.
Wooing him was a laughably easy task for the beauty and she had him wrapped around her finger within a turn (that is to say, Raluran believed he had himself a fine new trophy wife). He proposed when she was 20 and she meekly agreed. Along with his 7 children with his previous wife, Sirrei bore him 4 more, all boys: Sirul, Relur, Rane, and Lurrir. She stayed within the Hold, always pleading ill and Raluran was perfectly fine with that. While he was out, though, Sirrei enlisted the help of the Hold staff (who had little love for their Lord) to get out and about. Few knew what Sirrei looked like so it was always fairly easy.
Now here's the thing, Sirrei liked living in the lap of luxury Raluran had created for himself and she noticed a fair amount of income came in from the brothels. What she did, then, was buy out a large number of brothels in Bitra and put people she liked in charge of them. The one or two she ran herself were the classiest of the brothels and the women were well kept. She even serviced a couple men herself on occasion making the parentage of her four sons a bit suspect. Money poured into Raluran's pockets and Sirrei was happy.
Preoccupied with her business, Sirrei almost missed the end of the war. It was only when her husband invited her along to the summit that Sirrei really understood the implications. She stayed behind but got a report later on that made her usually healthy skin pale: they would have to pay some of their money back to the useless people of the hold! But...the institiutionalization of the brothels actually made it easier for Sirrei to acquire them and soon enough she was the sole head of every brothel in Bitra. Enough money was still coming into Raluran's coffers to offset the amount he had to pay back. The only difficulty lay in Inverness, that hateful weyr's meddling ways.
