Mavus Zarkanan

Mavus Zarkanan is a knight and Lieutenant of the town guard and militia of Gateneath. She has been granted the duty of maintaining the town's prison.
==History==
=== Early Life ===
Mavus was born as to a mother that was a prostitute at Lilin's House, a brothel in the town of Gateneath. Her mother used her leverage over the father, an important member of Gateneath's society, to ensure Mavus was given a better life than she was afforded. Mavus was taken on as a squire to become a knight at a very young age. Her mentor, Tomas Kuodis, was a knight of the Order of the Drake's Maw. He was long in years when he took the young girl as his student and raised her under the oaths and tenets of the order. She rose to replace her mentor at his passing due to old age, but her post was later replaced by Sir Davolio Masgoth as she was called by the Patriarch Consort of Gateneath to serve as his personal guard.
=== Adventuring with Romund ===
Romund Boivin took a small company to serve as his personal guard and set to adventuring the lands around Gateneath. His guard consisted of himself, Mavus, Vulug Urbul, Cromwell Cross, and Kurud Bronzebelly. They were known as the Wolves of Gateneath and engaged in a number of campaigns out into the wilds, exploring the rich Sverkic ruins in the region. These adventures ended when Romund's wife, the Matriarch Matilda Boivin, became pregnant with Evangeline.
=== Single Mother ===
Mavus gave birth to Valor, her only child. She would never name the father of her child. She raised him in the tradition that Mavus had been brought up in, studying the Order of the Drake's Maw's oaths and tenets. Very early in his life, Valor was made the squire of Sir Davolio Masgoth. During this time, Mavus took up a position as a member of the town guard and militia. She had risen to the position of Lieutenant quickly and has been in that position for a long while. When the position of Captain became vacant, she was offered the position first but turned it down without an answer as to why.
===Current===
Mavus has been given the duty to act as warden of the prison now that it is occupied by prisoners, members of the Knives Below thieves' guild.
==Trivia==
Mavus was created by Caitlin M "Magpie" as an NPC to be used in the Resistance at the Threshold story arc.
