Katerine Lorelei

 was a noblewoman and a member of the Lorelei family. She was played by Liam O'Brien in.

Personality
Katerine loved her sister's son, Haldor, with all her heart and raised him as her if he were her own child. She was dutiful and devoted to her family. When tragedy struck and Hal's wife died, she took it upon herself to mother and care for his children as well.

Background
Katerine was born as the second daughter of the head of House Lorelei. Her older sister, Geneviève Lorelei, was a wild woman who embraced her nature as a werewolf, instead of going through the rites that their family used to control their bestial side; Katerine, however, followed the tradition.

Geneviève took a Xhorhassian drow soldier as a lover, despite her family disapproval, and when other dark elves went to Castle Lorelei for this individual, there was a battle in which Geneviève, Lady Lorelei by then, was killed, the drow was taken to Xhorhas, and his twin was killed in action.

Katerine decided to rise Haldur Lorelei, Geneviève and her lover's son, following the terrible event that took both of his parents. Despite being born a bastard, Hal was raised well to become a lord, and his aunt was his regent; she loved him very much, led him through the Taming and taught him to be a kind and just nobleman.

When Hal's wife, Rosalind, died in childbirth Katerine dutifully continued her role as the family matriarch, raising Hal's children as a surrogate mother. She used to tell them stories about The Moonweaver.

Decades after Geneviève's death, her lover came back from Xhorhas, wanting revenge for the event that caused several deaths, including his twin. He took Castle Lorelei with a small army of undead and killed everyone in the keep, before mutilating Haldur and taking him to the mausoleum, as captive. During the attack Katerine fought, despite her age, and transformed into a wolf to defend herself. However, she was ultimately killed in her "brother-in-law"'s attack.

The Lorelei siblings found the corpse of their great-aunt in her room, back into her human form. Lucius was particularly affected by her death, and after a brief examination of the scene, he decided to bury her before doing anything else. Aurra supported his decision, and proposed to bury her in nature, in the forest; during the process both siblings wept, remembering their close relationship with Kat. Later on, realizing that their entire family line was buried in the same mausoleum, Portia berated her older siblings for their decision to bury Katerine in the woods, away from the rest of House Lorelei.

Trivia

 * Katerine is the only known member of House Lorelei who's not buried in the mausoleum.
 * She taught her nieces and nephews about Sehanine, but she probably kept her faith a secret, since The Moonweaver is not one of the approved deities in the Dwendalian Empire, and only when Lucius grew up did Lord Lorelei build a proper temple to the goddess.
