Dressed in her formal white & dark green quartered gambeson and partial plate armor, the latter of which she'd spent the day cleaning up; the Naga is met with a few audible gasps and plenty of murmuring. [color=c4df9b][i]Well, I've been met with worse. Nobody fainted this time...[/i][/color] Mari thinks to herself as she weaves through the party with ease, her quarterstaff tucked under one arm; the other guests giving her a wide berth. As she makes a beeline for the food, Mari catches sight of the noble harassing the Captain. Suppressing a growl at his condescending body language, Mari relaxes as Gillian and then Tyaethe move to support Fanilly. [color=c4df9b][i]Good. Those two aren't going to put up with any nonsense...[/i][/color] Returning to the task at hand, Mari leans her staff against a table and takes a plate which she begins carefully loading up with clean cuts of various meats. [color=c4df9b][i]Thank the Goddess' for the formal etiquette training my teachers insisted on...[/i][/color] She thinks to herself.
