Morbella Elum-Raht
Originally brought in as the house sorceress for Elum-Raht on the death of the previous, Morbella quickly fell in love with the outcast son, Varkan Elum-Raht. Their romance was a whirlwind, and they were married within months of meeting; they had five children in the span of six years, and she was heavily pregnant when they were slain by bandits outside their home in Edeli.

Personal history
Morbella was always seen as an oddity and a foreigner within the circles of the Great Houses; unlike the majority of the house wizards and/or sorcerers, Morbella was not native to Edeli or the Kingdom; she was born and raised within Tiger Clan far, far to the north in Zoluren. She began manifesting her sorcerous gifts at the age of 8 (young, even for an orc unlike the usual gifts given to Orcs, hers manifested as powerful psychic powers and disturbances, causing a near panic amongst those of the village.
As a show of good faith, Westinghouse Arcane Academy extended the invitation to Morbella's family for her to attend their school, free of charge, as an olive branch between the Orcs of the clan and the people of River Crossing, an offer they were keen to accept.
Morbella graduated four years later, in 196; though she was not considered an outstanding student and often received marks of 'moderate power' rather than the coveted 'great power'.
After two years of wandering throughout Zoluren, including a brief stint serving at the Zoluren Arcanarium, she was contacted by agents of the Great House Elum-Raht, who were seeking an orc or half-orc wizard or sorceress to enter their house. She did so, and met her future husband mere weeks later.
Morbella and her husband Varkan Elum-Raht became the Master and Mistress of the House in 207 after a series of deaths amongst his family (some assassinations, some in battle) ; and they, too, along with their five children, were killed in 208 by 'bandits' outside their home. At the time of her death, Morbella was heavily pregnant, and, according to her doula, she had been due any day with their sixth.
