Marin is a female gnome of typical height, light brown hair, and her nose is of good size. She mostly wears her grey Order robes along with a small grey hood and carries a staff, [[Andrinor's Vigor]], that is made in the design of [[Ninefold Promise]]. Occasionally, she can be seen in other outfits including her Holy Robes of Fegall, a Gorethar Festivus outfit, or other fancier attire. When in battle she usually puts on a Ganoom Thinking Contraption. | |||

== Background == | |||
Marin was born to a small mining guild in the north of Deglos that was a mix of gnomes and [[Dwarf|dwarves]]. She never fit in there and often resented the stricture of the [[Gorethar|Goretharites]] in the village but also sought more than what she knew from her fellow [[Fegall]]ian ganoomkin. During adolescence found some arcane scrolls from the [[Magic:Enchantment|Enchantment]] school. She played around with these and found she had some talent in arcane magic. She remains true to her Fegall roots but is drawn to her arcane talents. She left her village and clan upon reaching adulthood and made her way to [[Elysia]]. | |||

During adolescence found some arcane scrolls from the Enchantment school. She played around with these and found she had some talent in arcane magic. She remains true to her Fegall roots but is drawn to her arcane talents. She left her village and clan upon reaching adulthood and made her way to Elysia.
