Maya

Maya is an eisfuura girl living in Avalir and the daugter of Cerrit Agrupnin. As an NPC, in Exandria Unlimited: Calamity, Maya is played by Brennan Lee Mulligan.

Description
Maya is an eisfuura girl. She is initially stated to be 7 but later stated to be 14. She is described as having awkward plumage that she is expected to eventually grow into.

Maya is slightly rebellious, drinking alcohol, breaking curfew and sneaking out to a party, but she still apparently trusts and respects her father as shown by her immediately returning home when told to. She is also bright and studious, with a particular interest in history.

Although her age is originally stated to be 7, her mannerisms and behavior are more similar to that of an early teenager. Cerrit uses the racial mechanics of an aarakocra in Explorer's Guide to Wildemount, in which they have much shorter lifespans than other peoples and mature at a much earlier age.

Background
Maya lives in Avalir with her father Cerrit and her brother Kir. Her mother is a scientist who is often away from home on research trips.

Exandria Unlimited: Calamity
On the Eve of the Replenishment, Maya broke curfew to go to a party, unaware that her younger brother saw her leave and was reporting everything to their father. She went to a party hosted at the university for young sorcerers and chatted with another girl who Kir believed to be a triton due to her blue hair. Later that night, as the danger the city faced grew clear, Cerrit instructed Kir to collect his sister and take her home.

Cerrit returned home and reunited with his children, who were both unaware of the chaos and attacks occurring throughout the city. As Cerrit explained he had a gift for them that would send them to their mother, who was very excited to see them, Maya noticed Cerrit's Ring of Honor was glowing. Cerrit gave her and Kir the Runes of Recall and told them they would take them to their mother, and that he loved them very much. Cerrit then squeezed his hands, breaking the rune, sending Kir and Maya to their mother in Gwessar.

Patia Por'co, after realizing that Avalir would fall and the knowledge they've gained is useless if nobody is around to make use of it, Teleported her Orb of Power to Maya, which held within it all of her acquired knowledge.

Notable items
Orb of Power, gifted to her by Patia Por'co

Trivia

 * After Brennan described Maya as having awkward plumage because she is a teenager, he mentioned Sunny Biscotto, Marisha Ray's teenage aarakocra character in the Pirates of Leviathan game he ran for Dimension 20. Marisha played Patia Por'co in Calamity.
 * It is unknown where in Gwessar Maya and her family lived during the Calamity, but Aabria Iyengar said that she hoped they were in the Qoniira Tetrarchy, a civilization in southern Gwessar that she created for the first Exandria Unlimited series and was added to Tal'Dorei Campaign Setting Reborn. The Qoniira are neutral and non-judgmental about sources of magic and respectful of all magics, and the civilization's capital Niirdal-Poc survived the Calamity. Furthermore, Niirdal-Poc also has a population of birdfolk, possibly eisfuura, living in it as late as 842 PD, some of whom may be descendants of the Agrupnin family.
