Delia Qorgyle

Vorian Qorgyle

Qossa Qorgyle

Delia Qorgyle is the lady regnant of the small castle of Sandstone and holds the traditional title of the Qorgyles: Lady of the Wells. Her father was Lord Qondor Qorgyle and her mother was Lady XXX. She was born at Sandstone in the earliest days of 86 AC. The eldest of three siblings, she often shuns the leadership role of a matriarch, instead focusing on her work as head of house. She is married to William Yronwood and has 4 children by him, Quentyn, the heir to Sandstone, Sylla, Vorian, and Qossa. Her brother, Qoland Qorgyle, married XXX and has two children. The elder is her nephew, Qomoranth Qorgyle, and the younger is her niece, Qorayllia Qorgyle.

## Appearance and Character

Delia is quickly entering the last decades of her life, and it shows. While she was never considered a beauty, the natural aging process is clawing at her face and body. Lines have begun to appear on her face, and her eyes, which have always been oddly pale, are beginning to lose their luster. She stands usually with a hunch, a function of countless hours spent in the laboratory/greenery that she had constructed for her on the occasion of her late father's passing. When standing up, she is only a few inches above five feet tall, but normally stands only at 5 feet tall. After a childhood injury, she used a cane throughout her teen years. Her sons beg her to use it now, but she shrugs them off as she doesn't need it. However, she does move slowly on stairs and inclines. Like all the Qorgyles, her skin is darker even than the orphans of the Greenblood and their fellow sandy Dornishmen.

Something close to prodigal in her skill with chemistry and botany, she is rumored to be very capable in the creation of poisons. She, however, will insist that her skill is merely a hobby. When not in her makeshift laboratory within Sandstone, she usually tends to her duties as Lady, managing to keep the household running efficiently for the two-or-so decades of her rule.

She is rather antisocial in her day-to-day life, but has enough control over her principal servants and aides to feel confident in their loyalty when speaking to them. She is also often observed processing her thoughts out loud, speaking to the various non-threatening scorpions that make their home in the walls and grounds of Sandstone. She also keeps a stash of highly-poisonous scorpions in an enclosed habitat within her greenery, likely the most valuable-- if least advertised-- treasure of the Qorgyles.
