Background

Lady Wilhelmina “Mina” Danvers is a widow of impeccable standing, long embedded within London’s highest circles. Known among the Order_of_St_Aelfric as “The Silver Duchess” — though she bears no such title. Regal, statuesque, with silver-streaked dark hair and perfectly tailored gowns in deep hues. She views social graces not as frippery, but as survival skills.

A former lady-in-waiting to a royal cousin, she has personally negotiated safe passage for Order operatives through dangerous salons, occult gatherings, and duels of words and wit.

Poised, sharp-tongued, effortlessly commanding.
