The youngest daughter born to Merrick of Highrock and Kiera ThreeRivers, was Clarisse, a beautiful young child, brought up almost entirely by staff, until the death of her Mother, the trauma of witnessing her Mother killed in front of her caused Clarisse such deep trauma she refused to speak to anyone. Finally as the brother Teague's last resort to help his baby sister, he sent her away to the countryside to help bring her a sense of peace and grieve out of the sight of court. There in their country estate, she was distanced from the politics and manipulations of the court and cared for by her Aya. She was guided in the healing arts, working with herbs, learning all she could absorb, giving her a sense of purpose and a reason to begin to open up again to those around her. She loved the beauty and peacefulness of her home away, but also missed her family deeply. Since Clarisse was so far removed and able to focus on what came to matter most to her, she began to grow in her own faith. Not a faith taught by those around her, but faith she came to embrace through dreams shared with her, waking and sleeping. Some that came to her in the middle of the night that though she does not know the meaning of, have lead her back home. She has learned to keep secrets close to her heart, confidense entrusted in her buried deep, a compassionate heart for those sick and injured, and a steady supply to add in her healing arts within hands reach. Though she is of noble blood, Clarisse has a very humble spirit, kind and loving, and tries her best not to hurt anyone for any reason. It has taken her a long time to get over her mother's death, but it has finally come to terms with her mother's loss, and chosen to return home.

Her curly ebony locks cascade in deep dark ringlets voluminously down her back in thick rivulets that catch the light despite their darkness with luscious, healthy shine. This richness frames a rounder face, with warmly toned and perfectly smooth skin, her high cheekbones rosy and her full lips plump and pink. Her nose is button-cute, yet she manages to be a gentle beauty with bright, intelligent eyes the color of melting chocolate. Her figure is slender, with gentle curves, and she often wears a relaxed, affable expression.

Clarisse has been brought up to help others and the best way she is able to do this as a healer, comforter, and confidant that others can trust. She has worked side by side learning the ways of healing for as long as she can remember, and will work tirelessly to save even those who others believe to be a lost cause.
