- Haizea Malespero + (The third of four children to an already d … The third of four children to an already distant scion in the family tree, Haizea was of little import in the greater workings of House Malgentilega. She was afforded an education befitting anyone of her rank, and with a special emphasis in the arts and civil technologies as befitting any citizen of Bravura. Tutors agreed she was an astute-enough pupil: by no means stellar and often nightmarishly argumentative, but gifted with an engineer's sensibilities and an artist's eye, and hard-working where innate talent fell short. There was relatively little in the way of true politicking that was deemed necessary for her to learn given how low a rung she held in the ladder of consequence. She had long been betrothed to a minor Argento noble to fortify the houses' bonds, and natural aptitude for draftsmanship and mathematics made it likely that she would lead a tame and privileged life free to pursue her crafts. But the increasing troubles of House Argento were, in turn, the troubles of House Malgentilega, and in turn that of her fiercely liege-loyal father. Even Haizea could not fully escape the sense of turmoil that befell the family. Malgentilega sent its fleet to Argento's aid when Pravus initiated the blockade--and the outcome of the ensuing battle is, of course, no secret. Haizea hastened to Nilanza in the aftermath to arrange for the dead, counting the battered corpses of her father, brother, aunts, uncles, and cousins among the casualties. Her emotions were spent, or perhaps she was merely unsurprised, by the time she learned that her betrothed had been executed with the much of the surviving Argento lot. Barely a week had passed upon removing her mourning gloves when Haizea declared that she will seek to learn under the Mirrormasks of Nilanza. Some observed this action with suspicion, deeming it a maneuver to distance herself from Bravura and demonstrate that this particular Malgentilega noblewoman poses no threat to Houses Pravus and Amadeo. But no one can argue that she stayed true to the course, taking great pains to remain inconspicuous and buried in her various studies. When the Marquessa Lianne found Haizea and extended the invitation to join House Malespero, she latched onto the opportunity to shed her disgraced family name and start anew.her disgraced family name and start anew.)
