## Biography

### Early Life

Mal Wrayburn is a daughter of a hexblood draconic sorcerer named Amaryllis Galazini and a half elf man named Mordun Wrayburn. She was born in 1621 PS, two years after the Arcadian-Lycian War ended. Amaryllis was also a clone/daughter of the purple dragon Shiruse. Mordun died and Amaryllis disappeared.

Mal grew up in Arcadia. For the first few years of her life, she lived on Midmoor grounds with the researcher Dr. Moiyro Maddalark, who was intent on studying her due to her status as the daughter of a dragon's humanoid clone. When she was 5, Dr. Maddalark was fired from Midmoor, and she was freed from his custody. Since she had nowhere else to go, she was taken in by Midmoor professor Evard Turunen and his family. With Evard, Mal got a chance to discover her own magic on her own terms.

When Mal was an adult, a magical anomaly was discovered all the way across the continent on the Sword Coast. Mal, alongside Midmoor student Evie Nightshade and artificer student Carlos DeVille were sent to monitor it on a joint research venture with Aglish wizards, including Sherman J. Oaks. After studying the anomaly, everyone concluded that it needed to be continuously monitored and kept safe. Thus, Mal, Evie, Carlos, and Carlos's hired bodyguard Jay founded the town Toscinot.
