Name: Raha Muren
Caste: Chosen of Serenity
Concept: Orphaned, traumatized Golden Child
Motivation: Absolution.
Anima: A soft halo of blue light
I'm not to blame
You've seen my honest smile

So please remember me
The one who stroked your hair
And dried those eyes

Backgrounds
Salary 3
Sifu 5 (You know, let's just say Sifu Yes. This guy IS Sifu 5.)
Connections 2 (The Valkheusen Academy of Lookshy)
Savant 5
Manse 3: The Moon's Silver-Rimmed Elegy, formerly a Rating 5 Lunar Manse. This was his Waning Moon father's favored estate, and the only one of the Murens' properties left utterly untouched in the wake of the Usurpation primarily due to its remote location. Raha's Sifu made arrangements to claim it before it could be destroyed - unfortunately the Contagion and the subsequent Fair Folk invasion caused extensive damage to the Essence-vent system. The demesne is only partially capped, and was reaspected to Wood about 400 years ago. It is capable of producing a level 3 Hearthstone. Raha makes use of a stone of resilient bamboo.
Artifact 2: Distorted Causality, Raha's starmetal seven-section staff. While he is of course quite adept at its usage, he is more than capable of fighting unarmed (and in many cases prefers to do so). Stats given below.

Combos
- The Chance is Inevitability
- Requiem to a Predicament
- Surely You're Mistaken: You and Yours Stance + Fourth Socialize Excellency + Life Without Compunction + Easily Accepted Proposition Stance. Raha usually reserves this combo for times when he finds himself in a situation where his audience and/or target could potentially turn hostile. Making himself seem like the center of the other person's (or army's, if it comes down to that) solipsism, he uses Life Without Compunction to make it seem as though whatever social faux pas might have been committed was completely intentional but also completely innocent, and completes the social attack with a diffidently offered suggestion of his own.
