Mark Mliynar
Biography
Mark Mliynar, a prosperous merchant hailing from the Kingdom of Ardechia, had built an extensive network of shops, warehouses, and caravans that stretched across Ardechia, Kyrus, and the Messial Mountains. In Ardechia, where the gears of industry churned ceaselessly, magic was more than just taboo, it was a death sentence. The Church of the Mason preached vehemently against the corrupting nature of magic, and the Red Inquisition mercilessly hunted those who wielded it. Mark's life took a dramatic turn when he discovered his daughter's sensitivity to magic. Fearing the fatal grasp of the Red Inquisition, he made the heart-wrenching decision to uproot his family. They fled to Kyrus, a land more tolerant of magic, where Mark had previously conducted business and established some connections. They settled in a villa in Tsarigrad, a place that promised safety and a chance for his daughter Elena to grow up in peace, far from the prying eyes of Ardechia's zealots. His daughter flourished in this new environment, and her magical talents did not go unnoticed. She eventually caught the attention of the Ice Princess, Sara, a renowned figure in Kyrus known for her mastery of frost magic. Under Sara’s tutelage, Mark’s daughter began to harness her powers, molding her into not just a survivor, but a burgeoning Ice Maiden of significant prowess. Meanwhile, Mark continued to expand his trade operations, leveraging his commercial acumen to further entrench his family in their new homeland. His business served as both a livelihood and a protective layer, masking the true reason behind their sudden relocation. Through his extensive network, he ensured that any trace of his daughter’s abilities remained a carefully guarded secret, turning his trade routes into lifelines that sustained not just his wealth but his family’s safety.Personality
