History Characters / DrowtalesValBeldrobbaen

* FriendlySniper

* BladeOnAStick: Wields a war-scythe.
* CastingAShadow: Her affinity.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindow

* TheStoic

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking
* BraidsOfAction

* EyepatchOfPower / GlassEye: The former of which she wears during patrol and the latter during more formal occasions.

* PlayingWithFire
* PsychoticSmirk: Gives a textbook example when she [[http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?sid=9219 stops Kiel's golem]].
* TheStoic

* BraidsOfAction
* ClosetGeek: Is a secret FanGirl of Kyo'nne.

* PraetorianGuard
* SummonMagic: Is trained as a traditional summoner.
* WhipItGood: Her preferred weapon.

* ConflictingLoyalty: She works for [[spoiler:Snadhya'rune and the Nidraa'chal]], but unlike most of them still has the best interests of her clan in mind. [[spoiler:In the final chapter of Moonless Age, she betrays the Nidraa'chal agents defending the Imperial Dome to the clans attacking Snadhya'rune.]]

* DelinquentHair
* {{Goth}}: Although with heavy punk influence.

* PowerFist: Packs a pair of brass knuckles.
* SavagePiercings

* CoolPet: Her spider, usually seen riding on her back, nicknamed "Fuzz Fuzz" by fans.

* AmbiguousDisorder: There's just enough about the guy that's ''off''. While he's clearly a very good golem engineer and perhaps a bit of a savant, his bizarre reactions to events around him [[spoiler:including focusing on losing Bob the Chicken after his sister's seed horrifically takes her over]] makes one wonder. And he was like this even ''before'' Naal got tainted.

* CryCute: See NotSoStoic.

* SkunkStripe: Inverted. He has several black stripes across his white hair.

* RomanticTwoGirlFriendship: With Kiel, and it's hard to deny after [[http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?order=chapters&id=1230 this]].
** Then there's [[http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?sid=6783 this]] nuclear warhead of a ShipTease. The fandom nearly exploded with {{squee}}. May have officially upgraded to LesYay at this point.

* MixedAncestry: Half-Sharen on her father's side. It seems she inherited the [[spoiler:backstabbing family members]] gene from him, and the relative affluence and self-expression he has in comparison to her feeds into her resentment.

* ZettaiRyouiki: While at first glance she seems to be wearing a long tunic and pants, they're actually [[http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?sid=10760 very high stockings]].

* ConflictingLoyalty: She works for [[spoiler:Snadhya'rune and the Nidraa'chal]], but unlike most of them still has the best interests of her clan in mind.

[[folder: Waes'soloth]]

[[folder: Naal'suul]]

Waes'soloth's daughter and heir who was the only person to survive the massacre at Orthobbae-albeit heavily tainted. She is a [[spoiler:former]] member of Chry'stel's GirlPosse at Orthorbbae and Kiel'ndia's best friend. Naal'suul is often the [[OnlySaneMan voice of reason]] amongst her friends.

** The variable approach to [[spoiler: [[HowDoIShotWeb How Do I Demon?]] doesn't help. Some things (like possess and take over) she does on auto, others... she draws a massive blank. Like some of the basics of demon physiology. If that's the right word.]]

* EasilyForgiven After the timeskip Ariel gets along well enough with him, which is odd since he was in on the attempt to kill her at Orthorbbae when she was younger. Possibly because by then it's been the better part of 20 years.

[[folder: Tlu'rath]]

--> '''Tlu'rath''': "Sometimes I'd see so many grey faces in these halls, I'd think that I was a grey myself!"
--> '''Mikilu''': " You ''are'' a grey, old friend."

[[folder: Odelia*]]

[[folder: Sarai*]]

[[folder: Verthandi*]]

* TreacherousAdvisor: Well, ambassador technically, but close enough. And yet in Chapter 48 she tells Waes the truth about [[spoiler:the parasitic flower]] and tries to convince Waes to pledge loyalty to Snadhya to save the clan.

[[folder: Yaz'hazelaar*]]

* GenocideFromTheInside: [[spoiler:Attempts this in chapter 48 by infecting her clan with a madness inducing poison.]]

[[folder: Ischa*]]

* PurpleEyes

* GrayEyes: Originally.

* GrayEyes

* GrayEyes

* GrayEyes: Has a pair of light gray orbs.

* GrayEyes

--> '''Mikilu''': " You ''[[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments are]]'' a grey, old friend."

* BadAssGrandpa: Despite being old and looking it, he has kept his position within the Imperial Guards for the last thirty years without change.
* BladeOnAStick: His primary weapon.
* [[HonoraryAunt Honorary Grey]]: During the "''Dutan'vir Path''" side-story, Mikilu seems to think of him as this as evidenced by her statement below[[note]] Tlu'rath is a drowolath whereas Mikilu is a drowussu/drowolath hybrid in a clan mostly comprised of drowussu and drowussu/drowolath hybrids[[/note]]:

* OldRetainer

* CounterpartComparison: Her age and relationship to her daughter seems to mirror that between Snadhya'rune and Diva'ratrika, which helps explain why Verthandi was likely drawn to the former.

[[folder: The Clan as a Whole]]

!! Background Information
One of the Nine Great Clans (and the fourth to come to power after the Sharen, Sullisin'rune and Illhar'dro), the Beldrobbaen have a very traditional view. Unfortunately, this is part of what's killing them, as their refusal to adopt new members or mate with anyone who is not of Val status (combined with the loss of an entire generation of girls in a demon attack) has meant that their numbers are severely diminished. They make up one of the four "Great Clans" of the Council of Nine.

* AnimalMotifs: Spiders.

--> '''Mikilu''': " You ''[[HeartWarmingMoment are]]'' a grey, old friend."

* OffWithHisHead: [[spoiler:Appears to have been died this way in Chapter 50. Silice, who encountered her while she and several infected Beldrobbaen were seeking asylum in Felde, killed her for being associated with Snadhya'rune]].

* [[WomanInBlack Man In Black]] / DarkIsNotEvil : One of the most moral characters in the setting.

* BigDamnHeroes: In chapter 47 [[spoiler:she starts devouring Kharla'ggen just as Kharla'ggen's PhlebotinumOverload was starting to PeoplePuppet Kiel.]]

* {{Goth}}

* AndThenJohnWasAZombie

* HimeCut

* MindRape: Whatever she did to [[spoiler:Naal's sixth-born]]. Waes described it as the poor girl's mind "[failing] the challenge of her own guilt and collapsing under the weight of her regrets."
