Name: Corrine Marsten
Age: 13
Background:
Lady Corrine Marsten is one of the most unusual of creatures in Westeros north of Dorne: a female heir. She was not supposed to be the heir to House Marsten: far from it. Her two eldest brothers had died before she was born, however, and her youngest brother, the last true heir, died three years ago of the same fever that killed her father, Lord Corben.
Lady Corrine is thirteen years old and has recently come of age. Her body is still developing, but she shows every sign of becoming equally the beauty that her mother was. With her black curls, pale blue eyes, and fair skin, she has the potential to break many hearts along the way. She has little in common with her mother in personality, however. Where Lady Isobel was always strongwilled and a deep thinker, Lady Corinne is still a child in many ways, sweet and straightforward in her words and deeds. She has mastered the rudiments of manners and courtly ways, but she sees little of the currents that go on behind polite words and pretty manners. Lady Isobel has tried to educate her daughter, but also does her best to shelter her from a potentially dangerous world.
Corrine wishes she were not the heir, but is determined to fulfill her duties as best she can. She is fond of Gareth and has a secret crush on him, though anyone familiar with the ways of teenage girls can see it. She is aware that they would never be allowed to wed, but Gareth’s kindness to her and good looks keep her secretly sighing over him. He has done nothing to encourage her, but it’s been noted often how she would clearly prefer to spend time in his company over that of the guests and suitors who have begun appearing at Hartshorn. While most are willing to consider childhood affection as sufficient reason, Lady Isobel has taken notice of it as well and is resolved to put a stop to it before things get out of hand.
Description:
Lady Corrine Marsten, having only reached her thirteenth named this year, was a petite little thing and just beginning to show signs of womanhood. Despite that, the signs are clear of the beauty she'll soon become. While she shares her mother's beauty and pale blue eyes, her long curly hair is black rather than the blonde her mother's once was. She wore a blue dress so pale it was almost white with a pale purple silk shawl about her shoulders.
Equipment:
Noble garb that showcases the wealth and influence of House Marsten.
