Appearance and Character
Mylena Blackwater is the exact epitome of average in appearance. She is rather small in fact. Only standing at 5’4 and 120 lbs. She takes after her mother who was a Sandy Dornish. Her dark silky hair and darker skin reflect as much. She commonly wears a tradesmen garb, appearing slightly tomboyish by wearing breeches with long fine riding boots and a white cotton blouse with a low enough cut to show she is definitely a woman but modest enough to not attract the wrong attention. What makes her stand out is her dark, calculating eyes and her strong personality. She is both kind and fierce. Hot and cold. She has a reputation as being one of the best trade negotiators in Redwater. However, breaching protocol has known to ignite her fiery attitude. She also has a disdain for those who choose to act willingly ignorant even when presented with a means to better themselves. What she lacks in looks she makes up in her intelligence and ability to read the world around her.

Mylena Blackwater is usually considered someone to both respect and fear if you are involved in any trade profession in the town of Redwater. Pay her respect and you will receive it in kind.

History
Mylena Blackwater is the daughter of the wealthy merchant Perwyn Blackwater. She has trained her entire life to be the heir to the family fortune and leader of the Blackwater Trading Company. She has learned how to break down a man or woman and get the best deal with the family. She has developed contacts throughout the city that has made her well known even at the age of nineteen. Second only to her father in negotiating, Mylena is a fierce woman with little regard for those who choose to be ignorant or breach protocol. As such, she has developed a reputation that one does not act like a fool in front of her. Mylena’s personal bodyguard and friend, Glen, known as “Great Glen”, has watched over her since she could remember. Many times, her bodyguard has thrown someone into the river for underestimating her resolve.

Recently Mylena has been courted by Ser Thomas Redmane. Her father, Perwyn Blackwater, has encouraged the relationship despite the division in the family as to supporting the Redmanes or the Redhawks. However, she has found a kindred spirit in Ser Thomas.

As such, she has spent much of her free time with the Redmanes, feeling a quick bond forming with the family.
