Introduction:
My end goal for Luna is to marry royalty. This plot is hopefully a way of heading in that direction. The goals of this plot is to get Luna involved with a member of the Entente and to use that as a way to meet other Entente and become well known. By the end of the plot, Luna would hopefully be engaged to someone (this engagement would be broken in a future plot to go after someone more important).
Outline:
Luna starts off the season not have enough training as a necrodoctor to actually make a living. So, she turns back to her courtesan ways. She will work at a brothel and since she doesn't have to hide her magic use anymore, she is able to use Mentalism to be one of the best in her profession.
Luna's reputation would spread quickly and she'd get an Entente customer who is so enamored by her that he comes to see her very often. After seeing her a number of times, he decides it's easier for Luna to live with him than for him to keep coming to a brothel (Entente are supposed to not cave to sexual desire if I understand lore correctly). He is married so he pitches the idea of Luna pretending to be a relative of his who is staying with them for a while.
Luna starts to spend part of her weeks living with the Entente, cheating behind the wife's back.
Luna uses this opportunity to get to know other Entente and attend parties. She learns about how Entente act, talk, socialize, etc. so she can better blend in. Luna would learn a little bit from the Entente’s family by watching them. Eventually she'd convince the customer to allow her to attend a party or two.
Luna meets a couple guys who are interested in marrying her and now she has to figure out how to amicably break things off with her customer and get engaged. They would also both have dirt on each other so it would be mutually beneficial to not betray one another. Luna wouldn’t bite the hand that feeds her.

Description:
Miguel’s is a man in his early forties, with piercing brown eyes that seemed to stare right through you. His hair, which had receded significantly, was a shade of brown that complemented his olive skin tone. Despite his balding hairline, the man takes great pride in his beard. It was a symbol of his masculinity and authority, and he kept it neatly trimmed and groomed. The beard framed his strong jawline, adding to his air of confidence and command.
He dresses in the finest fabrics, favoring deep shades that accentuated his piercing eyes. His clothing was always tailored to perfection, with no wrinkles or creases in sight. Even in the heat of summer, he managed to look effortlessly cool and put together. Since he is aging, the man had already acquired a number of wrinkles around his eyes and forehead. They were the marks of a life lived with intensity and passion, and he wore them with pride.
He is a curious character, one who seemed to have a lack of direction in his life. Despite being in his forties, he had not accomplished much and seemed content to let life pass him by while doing the bare minimum required of him as a Veir. He had married young, but the relationship was strained at best. He didn't get along well with his wife and preferred to spend his time socializing with his friends and drinking. As a father, he was distant and uninvolved. While he had a child, he left most of the caretaking to his wife, seemingly uninterested in the responsibilities of fatherhood. Instead, he would often spend his evenings out, leaving his wife to manage the household on her own.
Despite these shortcomings, the man had a certain charm that endeared him to his friends. He was charismatic and outgoing, and had a knack for making people feel at ease in his presence. He enjoyed socializing and would often spend long hours drinking and chatting with his friends. Every once in a while, the man would disappear for a day or two, claiming to be on business. In truth, he was visiting brothels in disguise. While he knew that his behavior could spell out political suicide, he could not resist the temptation of these illicit encounters.

Description:
Maria is a tall, thin woman who had once been a Valran before marrying into the Veir class. Despite her once impressive magical abilities in water magic, she found herself struggling with mutations that left her feeling somewhat useless in terms of practical magical usage. As a result, she turned to teaching as a means of using her skills to help others, particularly her daughter.
Despite her efforts to remain composed, the woman was deeply resentful of her husband and his behavior. She saw him as a lost cause, spending most of his time drinking and socializing with his friends while neglecting his responsibilities as a husband and father. Her thinning hair and white hairs were a testament to the stress and strain she had endured in her life, and she often took out her frustrations on those around her.
Despite her bitterness, the woman still took pride in her appearance, seeking out the help of doctors and beauticians to maintain her skin and figure. Though she considered herself average in appearance, she was acutely aware of the judgments and criticisms of others, particularly those of her husband. All in all, the woman was a complex and troubled individual, struggling with her own limitations and the shortcomings of those around her. Despite her difficulties, she remained committed to her daughter and her teaching, determined to make a positive impact in the world despite the obstacles she faced.

Description:
The daughter Maria and Miguel Rosario is a beautiful young woman with a toned body and long, braided hair. She had inherited her mother's passion for water magic and was currently studying the art at a prestigious academy far from home. When she wasn't buried in her studies, she enjoyed fencing, using the sport as a way to stay in shape and hone her reflexes.
Despite her youth, the girl had a maturity and wisdom beyond her years, no doubt due in part to the challenges she had faced growing up with the expectation of becoming great. She had a deep empathy for others and a strong desire to make the world a better place, and her studies in water magic were driven by a desire to use her abilities to help those in need.
Despite her passion for her studies, the girl still found time to enjoy the simple pleasures in life, particularly in her love of flowery clothing. She was unafraid to express her femininity and often chose outfits that were both practical for her fencing and beautiful in their design. Though she was often away from home due to her studies, the girl cherished the time she did spend with her family, particularly her mother. She hoped to one day help her mother overcome her struggles with her magical mutations, and to help her father become a better person.

Description:
Enrique is a part of the military, in his late twenties, with short hair and a thick beard. Despite his relatively young age, he had seen much success on the battlefield, earning him the prestigious Valran title. However, his military service had not come without its costs, as he had sustained injuries that made it difficult for him to fight as effectively as he used to. These injuries were particularly evident when he jogs, as he does so with a noticeable limp. Despite this, he remains committed to his physical fitness, believing it to be essential for his continued success in the military. His posture and speech were a dead giveaway that he was part of the military, reflecting the discipline and rigor instilled in him during his service.
Though he had achieved great success on the battlefield, the man had begun to yearn for a more stable and settled life. He longed to marry and have a family, hoping that this would provide him with an acceptable excuse to slow down and leave behind the constant danger and violence of military life. His desire for a family was motivated not only by a desire for stability but also by a deep-seated need to give back to the world in a positive way.
It was this desire that led him to pursue a relationship with Luna, a woman he believed would offer him the stability and sense of normalcy he craved. Despite his injuries and the toll that his military service had taken on him, he remained confident in his ability to provide for Luna and any future family they might have. Despite his desire for a more settled life, the man remained deeply committed to the military and to his fellow soldiers. He viewed his service as a calling, and felt a deep sense of pride and duty in defending his homeland and protecting his people. Though he struggled with the physical limitations imposed upon him by his injuries, he remained determined to continue serving his country to the best of his abilities, no matter the cost.
N P C - Derrien Becerra

Age: 37
Race: Human
Sex: M
Height: 6’ 4”
Weight: 275 lbs
Occupation: Businessman
Title: Valran
NPC Type: Plot
Skills
Business – Expert
Persuasion – Expert
Mentalism - Journeyman
Politics - Journeyman
Etiquette - Journeyman
Description:
Derrien is a larger-than-life figure in every sense of the word. He is well over six feet tall and weighs well over three hundred pounds, but he carries his size with a certain pride that is hard to miss. In fact, he likes being rotund, as it symbolizes wealth and prosperity to him. Despite his size, this man is a shrewd businessman who has made a fortune in the weapons trade. He is in his late thirties and has earned his Valran title through his connections and shrewd negotiating skills. He is always on the lookout for new business opportunities and ways to expand his influence.
This man was once married to a woman who died under mysterious circumstances. Some say that she was killed by a rival business associate who was jealous of the man's success. Others whisper that he was somehow involved in her death, although there is no concrete evidence to support these rumors though he would have benefited from her estate. Now, the man is interested in marrying Luna, as he sees her as a way to become closer to the Entente she is pretending to be related to. He believes that by marrying her, he can gain access to new business contacts and opportunities that will help him expand his empire even further. However, when Luna turns him down, he becomes suspicious and starts doing some digging.
This leads to a confrontation between Luna and the man, as they use their respective mentalism powers to try and gain the upper hand. The man is not used to being denied anything he wants, and he will stop at nothing to get what he wants. However, Luna is just as determined to protect herself and her interests, and the two engage in a fierce battle of wills that is not easily forgotten. Despite his questionable past and motives, this man is a force to be reckoned with. He is an expert at manipulating others to get what he wants, and he is not above using underhanded tactics to achieve his goals. However, his size and imposing presence also make him a formidable opponent, and he is not easily intimidated by anyone or anything.
In many ways, this man embodies the dark side of power and ambition. He is willing to do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, no matter how morally questionable or ethically dubious they may be. However, he is also a survivor who has learned how to thrive in a world where strength and cunning are the only things that matter.
