Bio

Gwenllian Arwyn is a Brujah Methuselah of London, she spent most of her nights serving Mithras. Gwenllian knows how powerful he is and can still feel his radiance in her veins. She wishes to be free, yet is terrified to make her move.

Behavior

Appearence Arwyn is short and stocky, with dark red hair. Her hazel eyes shift color depending on her mood, turning green when she is content and a reddish-brown when she is angry.

She prefers clothes of unadorned linen and leather. She still wears the insignia of her rank as Pater—an ancient bronze ring and a short wooden staff—denoting her fealty to Mithras and authority over his flock.

History

Mortal Days

Gwenllian was a girl from a no-name village in East Anglia. She possessed courage and cunning, however, and when the Romans came, only Gwenllian survived the massacre. She stumbled into the forest where a druid found her.

The druid taught Gwenllian the ways of the trees, of quiet growth and patiently waiting for the sun. When the Romans came a second time though, Gwenllian discovered that silence and patience did not suit her. She took up arms, and would have died alongside the rest of Boudica’s rebellion, had her spirit not drawn the attention of a fledgling Brujah named Lannosea.

Kindred Nights

Nearly two centuries Gwenllian fought alongside her sire – until Mithras arrived with the second Roman invasion. He slew Lannosea without thought, and stood poised to destroy Gwenllian had she not seen the truth of her old mentor’s words: grow silently, and wait. Resolving all things would pass – even the might of Rome – she bowed down before Mithras.

Gwenllian, assuming the surname Ferch Arwyn (and dropping the Ferch in modern nights), served Mithras dutifully. She recognized he would accept nothing less, and she lacked the skill to deceive the ancient vampire. Decades turned into centuries, and Mithras remained invincible even as Rome’s might waxed and waned. Servitude once intended to wait him out grew into admiration, and then dedication and loyalty. Gwenllian finally learned the value of patience in her service to Mithras, rising to prominence as one of the cult’s strongest diplomats.

It wasn’t until the Victorian era, when Mithras' own mind slipped, that Arwyn could conceive of independence again. Mithras’ mind returned before she could act, however, and Arwyn once more fell in step behind him. She rose to Pater in in the Mithraic Mysteries, while first Valerius and then Anne Bowesley governed Mithras’ secular kingdom in London.
