==The Silver Warder==

''The sacred huntress''.

'''Usual Location''':  While the Glass Panopticon in Pharam Sung is the seat of her power, the Silver Warder is often on the move; her swift warship, the Rose-Petal Prince, is a common sight along the coast of the White Sea.

'''Common Knowledge''':  The Silver Warder is the high jailor of Pharam Sung and a cultist of Aasor.  She is a dual-aspected being; on the one hand she is a diplomat and political figure who trades in the captivity and enslavement of prisoners from far and wide, and on the other she is a holy huntress who must track down and catch those whom the high priests of her faith judge to have evaded the just punishment that they deserve.  When on the hunt she ceases to care about petty mortal laws and morals; there is only the prey and the pursuit, a sacred engagement.
Characters and the Silver Warder:  On the hunt, the Silver Warder's entourage use local mercenaries, guides and informants to help track down the lady's chosen quarry.  She also values those who can reliably provide information about ancient artefacts and dangerous individuals who would be best contained in Pharam Sung's warded cells.

'''Allies''':  The Silver Warder pays the Hierarch the respect due to his position of spiritual authority.  In theory, she works well with the Magistrate - the Magistrate as judge and she as the executioner - but true co-operation between the two remains uncommon.  She holds prisoners - political or otherwise - on behalf of both the Lord-Commander and the Frost Envoy.  They say that the Eagle King was her teacher before she accepted the bejewelled silver chains and manacles of her position - something that greatly strained their relationship.

'''Enemies''':  The Merchant Prince has little patience for the Silver Warder's assumptions about her authority and freedom to go where she pleases.  The Shadowfury is said to have openly laughed and derided the notion when she heard that the Warder wished to incarcerate her.  The Solitary Flame plays a shadow war with her agents and spies.  The Truth-Seeker would rather prefer that he had her favour, so that he might see just what secrets the cells of Pharam Sung hold hidden, but for now they remain at odds.

'''The True Danger''':  If the Silver Warder's vigilance fails and the deepest and oldest of the warded cells of Pharam Sung are broken open, who knows what will spill out into the world?
