Teachers at the Magaambya tactfully describe Mariama as a student with an “interesting” personality. Undeniably a knowledgeable occultist and accomplished spellcaster, the young woman falters between responsibility and unreliability with infuriating frequency. Her attitude likewise flips between unbearable kindness to her friends and outright viciousness to her foes.

Mariama lives the kind of life that even storytellers might consider unrealistic, with wildly fluctuating luck and outlandish events frequently plaguing her. She likes to tell stories that are even more unbelievable, leaving her fellows to wonder whether Mariama is cursed, blessed, or just a pathological liar. To date, Mariama has nearly started a cult by accident while drunk, been subjected to school discipline for selling curses, and had her heirloom magical staff disintegrated by a freak bolt of lightning.

Mariama can rapidly piece together disparate clues, but her focus on the occult and the exceptional often leads her astray. She’s quick to proclaim supernatural influence where there is none, such as accusing fey for crop failures when quelea birds are to blame. Yet when uncanny forces truly are at work, Mariama’s insights are frighteningly accurate.
