She travels apparently randomly for about half the year, showing up in various towns and cities to distribute her greenery and to give medical aid to towns so small or poor as to be unable to afford a doctor. The other half, she remains at home, cultivating plants to offset Filgaia's slow death by desertification.

''"I believe that a flower which can grow in a wasteland is as strong as it is beautiful."''
Mariel's age is unclear. She looks about fourteen but has been doing this for decades - even old greybeards might be able to remember a Mariel from their youth. It's generally put down to a combination of whatever type of beastman she is keeping her young-looking and it being a family affair; surely there's been multiple Mariels over the last sixty years, right?

Background

Powers and Abilities

Mariel is an Elw, one of the original inhabitants of Filgaia. She doesn't hide what she looks like, trusting to the fact that pretty much nobody alive has ever seen an Elw to identify her and blending in with the beastman population... though it's not impossible for a scholar to make a guess as to what she is. She does not age, and will live as long as Filgaia does unless something kills her first.

It's said that the Elw were more connected to the land than humans, even more so than the Baskar, and lived in harmony with the Guardians; they are said to have unusual magical powers since lost to the world. Some superstitious followers of Granas or the Nisan Orthodoxy believe they can bless, or curse, with a touch. The truth of what the Elw can and cannot do, like so much from before the Day of Collapse, has been lost to time.

But what is true is that, for most of her life, Mariel has been growing plants. Her green thumb verges on miraculous. Mariel can grow plants in Filgaia's poor soil, even plants thought to be impossible to cultivate like healing berries. Plants under her care thrive and grow strong. Her gardens are wondrous things. She knows how to use her plants, too; she's an herbalist, a cook, and a woodworker.

Mariel has a wide variety of mundane skills beyond the use of her plants - she's been living for a very long time and has been largely self-sufficient for centuries - but the most developed is medical treatment. She's learned how to perform surgery and other works of doctoring on both people and animals, especially using herbal and other natural treatments as an aid. She has lived so long that some ARMs - Ancient Relic Machines - are not especially ancient to her.

What Mariel is not is a fighter. She is not good at fighting and tries to avoid it; she has never used a combat ARM of any sort, even a modern gunsmoke weapon, and does not know martial techniques.
