Way of the Nightsisters

Purpose

Marvella Va'len was born a member of the Nightsisters (or the Va'len Clan) in Madison County, Tennessee. The Nightsisters study and practice the darker schools of magic to aid Heroes across the world when combating demons and other eldritch beings that originate from hellish planes of existence. Generally, most see their contributions as vital to the protection of the world from magic and those who would use it to conquer, however, there are those who would gladly see the Va'len Clan be exiled or even burned at the stake, seeing them just as much a threat to global security. Time and time again the Elders of the Nightsisters have reassured the skeptics that every precaution is taken but it has been noted that these precautions have failed in the past, forcing the Elders to banish those who fall to the temptation of abusing the dark magicks they have learned. These banished witches then go on to either disappear - undoubtedly a victim of their own magic - or go on to become a national liability within the United States.

Banishment

Marvella was among several considered to be part of a new generation of prodigies within the Clan. Her affinity for wielding magic was quickly noticed and nurtured by her teachers. Unfortunately, this nurturing led to her craving for more knowledge. Frustrated and dismayed by her mentors' repeatedly denying her requests to study the more dangerous texts, Mavella began to secretly study them without permission. She was able to accomplish this until the trials: a series of tests that young Nightsisters perform on their eighteenth birthday to determine whether they are ready to begin studying the more advanced magic. The final test is a spar between the fledgling Nightsister and one of their teachers chosen arbitrarily. Should the Nightsister prevail, they will pass their trials and be deemed ready to learn the darker forms of magic. There were only three, out of twenty, Nightsisters that remained: Agate, Marvella, and Cora. Agate went first followed by Cora. The former failed while the latter passed. Now only Marvella was left to spar one of her teachers. It was strenuous and quickly consumed much of Marvella's energy with every push she made. Feeling she was on the verge of failing, Marvella, in fear, opened a portal to a qliphotic realm which swallowed her teacher. In her place, there was only smoke and a hellish pentagram burned into the ground. Realising what she had done, Marvella attempted to run but was quickly apprehended by the other teachers present where she was brought before the Elders. The young witch pleaded with them to grant her a second chance but they had already made their decision. She had been banished like those before her. She was given time to say her farewells to her family and friends but by the end of the week, Marvella Va'len was alone in the dark in the middle of nowhere.

Villainous Beginnings

Embittered by her banishment, Marvella began to travel across the country in search of new ways to learn the Occult. However, she was barred and chased off at every opportunity - blacklisted thanks to her Clan. Infuriated, she decided that there was no other way to carry on studying without taking by force. So, it began with a few thefts from a library, then a bookshop and it escalated further and further. Soon she was stealing tomes and manuscripts from some of the most highly reputed sorcerers and witches in the United States. Knowing that these thefts would not go unnoticed, Marvella constantly kept on the move, making sure to cover her tracks as she did. Despite her efforts, she was occasionally caught by servants and henchmen of those she stole from but was quick to escape before finding herself in any real danger.
