Marion Lavorre

, better known as the Ruby of the Sea, is Jester's mother and a prominent courtesan in Nicodranas. As an NPC, she is played by Matthew Mercer.

Appearance
She has ruby red skin and dark red hair, where she gets her esteemed moniker from. She is described as graceful and alluring with a charming and delightful nature about her.

Personality
Marion is warm, jovial and motherly. Whilst truly astonishing, her appeal is said to in fact come from her wisdom and her intelligence, paired with her open heart and the comforting aura she exudes. She is also very perceptive and pays a lot of attention to detail, from both the shallower aspects of appearance and the more profound one of understanding human emotion and being able to read it. Marion fiercely loves Jester and cherishes her above everything. However, she harbours deep sorrow and regret regarding Jester's father, whom she still has nostalgic feelings for.

In, Marion had sent a package to the Pillow Trove for Jester. The package included a small vial of Marion's lavender perfume, 5 ink vials (red, blue, green, and two black), and 200 gold. Included in the pack was as a letter to Jester:

Jester communicated with her via sending spell

The Mighty Nein meet Marian for the first time after witnessing her perform at The Lavish Chateau.

Jester uses sending to speak with her mother letting her know she is on her way back to Nicodranas. Marrion responds letting her know that the commotion caused by the Mighty Nein's previous actions at Nicodranas seems to have died down, but she also warns Jester that it would be best to be cautious upon their return.
