Bael Ó Riain

The ward from the Ó Riains. She and Cerys are on friendly terms. Bael and Fiadh have been best friends since childhood and will likely have to be approached as a unit.

Her brother, Éamonn, had the Affinity, but died recently under suspicious circumstances. Bael and the rest of her family believe the Cenrics are responsible for his death. Cerys expects considerable friction between her and Leala, as a result.

Cerys says she lacks a social filter and it sounds like Bael shares Cer's mischievous nature.
