[edit] Physical Appearance
Fyn-Mah is petite with the black hair and dark eyes common to natives of Tiksi. She has honey coloured skin and a frozen beauty, that deters rather than attracts. Fyn-Mah is always in complete control, rarely allowing her emotions to touch her features.
Though she is small, Fyn-Mah can dominate people many times her size with a single look. She is also a mancer of considerable skill as all querists must be.
[edit] Fyn-Mah's Role
[edit] Geomancer
Fyn-Mah is originally the Querist, chief of the municipal intelligence agency, at Tiksi. It is she who is originally in charge of the investigation of the conspiracy to find Tiaan Liise-Mar.
After the arrival of Perquisitor Jal-Nish Hlar, Fyn-Mah becomes second in command and accompanies him, Irisis Stirm, Cryl-Nish Hlar, among others, on the mission to recover Tiaan and her precious Amplimet.
Fyn-Mah lends her expertise on matters of mancing several times during the journey and becomes increasingly adversed to Perquisitor Hlar. Fyn-Mah is in fact an ally of Scrutator Xervish Flydd, a political and personal enemy of the perquisitor.
After Jal-Nish is mutilated in a battle with the lyrinx, Ryll, Fyn-Mah takes over leadership of the mission. Nish develops an interest in the lyrinx's flesh-forming (something Fyn-Mah shares interest in) and the Querist decides to give him permission to research this matter. On the journey back to Tiksi, it is revealed that Fyn-Mah is in fact barren, incapable of having children, something she had always dreamed of.
[edit] Tetrarch
Xervish Flydd, Irisis Stirm and Ullii venture to Gospett and discover that Fyn-Mah has been transferred there and made a Perquisitor on Flydd's recommendations.
Fyn-Mah provides Flydd with invaluable information about the exact whereabouts of the node at Snizort and later informs Nish and Minis that Flydd has gone to destroy the node-drainer in place there. Minis has a terrible vision of the death of one of Nish's friends and Fyn-Mah quickly snaps him out of the fit that occurred at the same time.
