Personality: Aggressive, abrasive, and angry, Marastyr embodies much of what other species detest in the Dwarves. Her respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to her, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, she tolerates in varying degrees. Though less modest and more hasty in her reactions to snap at those who irritate her, Marastyr is combative with any and all who dare try her patience in the slightest.
