Tepet Beral Namori had made a name for herself even as a child. Her father, Tepet Beral Tynet, was one of the Beral household's few military officers, and had done well for himself after his retirement from the legions, with the Empress even going so far as to select him for a seat in the magistrates. Namori dearly loved her father, and the sight of Namori commanding the servents and slaves about in the fashion of a seneschal was remarkably common in her younger years. It was reasoned that a child so in tune with her future role as a Princess of the Earth could not dare to fail her destiny.

Namori's studies were often finished within the hour, and throughout primary school, she often was in charge of the bureaucratic middle-management the teachers left to the older students, even gaining notice when she attained prefect status for her hall a year before she should've been up for the running. Namori calmly accepted the honor, and then Exalted amidst the scrutiny of her peers and teachers.

Following primary school, Namori was offered a scholarship into the Spiral Academy. It was at best a simple gesture, as she had been studying for the secondary school since the age of six. Still, she graciously accepted the offer, and was within the next year of students almost immedietly. Namori took to her studies with relish, and had offers from every ministry upon her exit from its halls. She even has a message from Bal Keraz himself offering her a notable seat within the Realm Treasury, which she has held onto to this day.

However, tragedy had struck in her final year within the Spiral Academy. Her father, who had continued with his duties as a magistrate, had fallen in battle in the Threshold, allegedly at the hands of a dark Anathema whom had lured her father and his archons into an ambush. Her father's head had been returned to the Beral household, along with polite and well-scripted message which promised that his fate would be the fate of all usurpers of the divine crown of the Solars. Her one love that she had allowed herself gone, desecrated by a demon-made-flesh, Namori swore vengeance, and accepted a seat with the Wise and Knowledgable Advisors of Foreign Tributaries, reasoning that a monster such as that which killed her father still roamed the wilds, and that being on the front lines (in spirit, at least) would put her into contact with such a creature so she could wreck holy terror upon it.

The fall of the Tepet legions took care of her driving goal. Her entire house floundering, with only the mercantile duties of her household kept afloat dashed her dreams of smashing the demons whom took her father. The struggle of the Great Houses have led her to duties of a most distressing nature, dueling with her own cousins over graft and fraud of the satrapies. She has thankfully managed to stay anonymous due to distance, but she knows it is just a matter of time before some scion of the Great Houses she has warded off decides to eliminate the problem at its source.

Though Namori is unaware of her importance in the greater scheme of things, she is aware that she is under a sort of protection from some outside force. The All-Seeing Eye has done a fine job of eliminating assassins and thugs who have been hired to eliminate the young Tepet scion, and has done an equally good job of providing her with information concerning the Great Houses' economic crimes. Her influence within her satrap has managed to push forward a far more effective and less cost-inefficient way of doing things, which has endeared her to those in high places. Both the Guild and the Treasury seem to favor the young bureaucrat, and her connections in both areas do her well.

Her Anathema still prowls out there, of course. Waiting for the paperpusher to make her fatal misstep. It may be waiting for a very long time.
