M'he. S'Oang of Eǂyelfua Clan of Incaras

“You are mine. By the law of the city until your bond is paid, all you have and all you gain, is mine. By the law of our kind you are forever more mine. I am the matriarch of the Clan EǂYelfua and you will obey me and only me. Don’t even think you can trick me. I know all the tricks and then some.”
“Tricks, S'Oang?”
“You can’t buy your freedom with tomb coin. You can’t hide coin from me. You can’t use your Shadow against me. You can’t run and you can’t hide. I know all and I see ALL” Dracna thinks “Tomb coin?” Then she sees, coin offered to the fire and hidden in her tomb, then summoned for the night, only to return to the tomb at the touch of sunlight. “This one is smart.” she notes.
Later in the bunk room Dracna is approached by a chubby female and several others. “I am the S'Oang’s daughter, and you will take my Chain now!”
Dracna at last is comfortable. She knows the ways of Clan and her own kind. “I will not. The S'Oang said to obey only her.’
“Hold this one!” Commanded the Chubby female. A lame male and several young females rose to grab her. She pushes forward and they pull her back, then suddenly pushing back as well and sending them falling. Twisting free she bites and punches. Rolling to stand, she takes the arm of one swinging at her and pulls the motion forward, twisting the arm and swinging the attacker back into the others. Dodging and ducking their unskilled blows, she punches exposed throats and slashes and kicks.
An hour later she is called to see the S'Oang M'he.
“You fight well. Train my fighters.” Says M'he to the bent down older female.
Did she tell them to do that? Or did she hear? S'Oangs! Scheming bitches! “Yes, S'Oang.”

Mental characteristics

Personal history

M’he’s mother came to the city pregnant. Captured and sold as a slave, her shadow a Necros ***. Smell, levitate, icy touch. She was kept shakled as a farm slave, beaten and kept under tight control. She only managed to place Aedoteerua: The Soul Chain on a few slaves. M’He was taken away at a year, used in picking and later trained as a supervisor of another dozen slave children. Several years later she was returned to her mother as a supervisor watching farm crews. From her mother, she learned the marking and chaining. And quickly set about puting aedoteerua on all the other slaves. Mother used her chains to force M’he to free her and forced her to join the escape. Too young she was given a Shadow as they fled - Mother's Grandmother: who possessed Nightmare 3 ( form causes fear, may use any surface as a floor, silence, strength drain) to help escape and bind M'he - except Grandmother had grandmother’s interests. M’he liked being a supervisor.
She left a trail for slave hunters, and didn’t resist recapture. Mother did and was killed. The landholder master was angry at the lost slave, but liked M’he back. M’he used her position and shadow to terrorize the other slaves. The Master found her an excellent overseer and the slaves worked harder under her. She accompanied market loads. And learned about the city. Used her position and trust to convince the landowner to buy a male as breeding stock. He is older - toothless and blind, a whaerso with a Banshee 1 Shadow. She bound him. She placed him in the house. She planned to kill master but learned that all slaves would be tracked and killed, hurled from the city wall and down the cliffside. Instead she set about to steal from the master and frame another. Slowly slowly she collected money. She forced the other slaves to pay whatever coins they had. Playing "games' she placed binding on her owner’s children. Used the Shadows to keep them scared and quiet. Compelled the master's children to get father to allow her to buy the 2 Ghenids free. Freedom was bought with gold from the Whaerso’s crypt summoned for the night and collected copper, silver and gold, plus compelled gifts/ bribes from the children.
They vanished into city. Used the crypt gold trick to buy goods, then sold them for real gold. She used stains and dyes to change her markings and color, moving around the city. She 2 cubs. Purchased an inn on the East side. Sold male cub to Nava for help. Bought other male ghenid slave ( Poltergeist 4) old and broken down and humans to staff and run inn. She learned from the older male, and had more cubs. Using the Poltergiest to steal from rich. Selling males. Daughters chained and taught skills, money gathering. She expanded the inn several times. Eventually the Whalua clan caught her scent and demanded obedience. Now she learned of other clans in city. That the tribes were organized and had a hierarchy that they expected to be observed and respected.  Other EǂYelfua elders came and threatened, killing slaves and lighting the Inn on fire as warning, threat and punishment. M'he tried striking via the her band's Ghosts, but was countered. Reached out to pawn brokers and gangs. She started to buy back cubs and any EǂYelfua she can find. Sold the old blind Whaerso to Nava the sorcerer for help becoming grandmother. Had the ancient male and others train her fighters. Paid mercenaries to raid under city and kill ring spotted Ghenids. An unheard of thing unimaginable to other Ghenid. She even had the Poltergiest hide stolen goods at EǂYelfua clan nests, and then inform on them - getting them raided by Watch. Her shadow- Grandmother ghost advised her. None of her sons are given shadows.

Sexuality

M'he is mostly attracted to males and has a special fixation on humanoids which she finds most attractive as she grew up surrounded by them and they set her idea of beauty standards.  She out grew a period of shaving and skin painting and makeup to try to make herself more humanoid in coloration and appearance.
She is open to experimentation, especially if approached by humans or fae.

Employment

Inn owner, brothel mistress, crime boss and Ghenid Oang, then S'Oang.

Accomplishments & Achievements

M'he worked her way up from a slave to a Ghenid Clan Matriarch and minor crime boss. She hides behind the facade of her Inn which she  staffs with slaves and employees of other species, keeping her ghenid mostly in the back and out of sight.

Failures & Embarrassments

She was surprised to find that Ghenid had established clans and power structure in the city and that she was expected to bow down and obey them.  She swore she would never be someone's slave again when she escaped the farm and came to the city.  She had to rise and dominate quickly, which she did partially because she was never raised as a Ghenid with the cultural expectations and prejudices.

Social

Religious Views

M'he is almost agnostic for a ghenid.  She uses the Soul Chain as a tool to promote her life and devotes almost nothing to the afterlife.

History

M'he bought Dracna's bond debt from Gazakral. She added costs and interest.  Then she tested Dracna to find her strengths and weaknesses.  She found a smart and skilled older female who had a different set of drives from M'he or most other Ghenid she knew. Dracna wanted to find a way to bring Ghenid the advantages of civilization - fine houses and things, art and culture, healing and medicine.  Things many Ghenid would find soft, weak or only fit for sending to the fires to wait for them to enjoy in the afterlife. After a few years as guard, trainer of fighters and leased solder M'he listened to a plea to allow Dracna to infiltrate the city Watch. M'he instantly saw the potential and approved the application, encouraging it with bribes and political support of the local Tribunes.

Relationship Reasoning

M'he sees all the clan within the City as her personal property and beholden to her.

She's certainly lived an interesting life. I find it fascinating that she tries to emulate human beauty standards. :)
