NPC Focus - Marie Hébert

Marie Hébert

    Marie Hébert is, without a doubt, a singularly unpleasant woman. Middle class by birth, Marie suffers under the delusion that Marquise Gaston Fournier was in love with her and had planned to marry her before Désirée Fournier stepped in and took him from her. The reality is that Gaston didn't even know that Marie existed, and his only interaction with her was to smile at her on three separate occasions while he was meeting various persons at the Triangle Tavern for business.

    A quick temper, a foul mouth and a through dislike of non-human races are Marie's hallmarks, and her tavern is suffering because of her behavior. The only reason it remains in business is because Marie hires the bard Lucien Delacroix to play there every weekend and pays him handsomely as well. While not outright racist, she will frequently ignore non-humans, make them wait far too long for drinks or act as if their business were below her. She will often charge them nearly double, and will treat any humans with them as if they were slumming.

    The Triangle Tavern is a second home to Guarin Félix, and Marie has recently developed an unhealthy fixation on the rogue. Gaurin is only there because the entrance to the Guilde Furtive is literally right next door, but he happily takes advantage of Marie's interest in him in able to score free drinks. He has no interest in her otherwise, but Marie is far to smitten with him to realize this.
