Gilli Hopiar

Gilli Hopiar, born Gilli, is the third child of Lord Brandon Karval and his mistress, Sanelle. A quiet and demure child, Gilli was never a favorite at court, and was the only of Brandon's bastards to return to Fauria before the Blue Winter. Following the War for the Isles, Gilli was legitimized at Rhaelarys Vakerian II's request, after she presented him with an odd Dragon Egg she found in the southern Crownlands.
== Appearance and Character ==
Gilli is pretty, with jet black hair that has greyed with time, and a kind face. Her lips are a soft pink, which usually carry a smile upon them. She is slender, tall, and carries herself with a small amount of grace befitting her station.
Gilli was born in the year 1,285 AC, and was a quick child, fair and strong. Even when she was a child of five she was a quick learner, and had already come to read, and oddly studied frequently in Vakriez. Unlike her elder siblings, she showed little interest in the happenings of her family, and wished to study the higher arts, much like the Maesters of the Academy did.
Gilli went to Vakar at the behest of her father in 1,305 AC, and returned to Ingving four years later. She found an impromptu mother in Gael Vakerian, and a kind older sister in Queen Nera Runeri. 
Her eldest sister Berena thought of Gilli as smart to keep herself far away from the happenings of the court. She was not, however, smart enough to keep herself out of Berena's affairs.
Following the Tourney of 1,309, Gilli was put on a mission orchestrated by her mother Sanelle, involving her turning House Ichiston against Lord Landon. It ended in a terrible confrontation between her and Kaela Ichiston, and would lead to the tension yet remaining within the Marches which led to Gilli being imprisoned.
Kaela initially informed Gael Vakerian that Gilli was imprisoned, and Gael sent her a letter informing her that they were to meet. Kaela sent her a reply threatening Gilli's life. Gael quickly flew over to Navoston on the back of her large grey dragon with her sword at her hip. She landed outside the city calling attention to her arrival and nobody knows the conversation that was had but what is known is Gilli was released shortly after, and brought back to her home in Fauria.
Gilli frequently experienced nightmares of her time at Navoston, and slowly overcame them with the help of her brother's wife, Rhialta. Though the scars, both mental and physical will never fade, Rhialta quickly became a close friend and confidant to Gilli, when Gilli thought there was no one out there who would ever help her.
Shortly after returning she was riding through the fields of the southern crownlands when in the distance she saw smoldered land much like something large had just burned all of the plantlife around it. She rushed over to it and in the center was a decently odd Dragon Egg being near iridescent in color. She instantly threw it in her bag and rode to Vakar over the next few days presenting it to King Rhaelarys who thanked her dearly and wrote up the order to legitimize her as a true Karval.
She left Vakar heading back home but now that she was legitimized she was to be married off and that she was to a man named Markas Hopiar a savage warrior that over time Gilli has worked to tame and somewhat control on his seat at Ingving and they have brought four lovely children into the world that are more like Gilli then Markas ever could be.
