Public Reputation: Little is known of the woman known as Lady Riann. Mixed reports are heard of a dilettante noble heir, a cold and calculating harlot, a spoiled princess, and other contradicting descriptions.

Log:
Riann Valdreya was born into the remnants of a noble dynasty that joined House din Alt van Toeval after it left the Calixis Sector looking to reestablish themselves in the Koronus Expanse. She was born during the onset of a warp event that left their ship scarred and the experience has seemed to have affected her in a number of small ways.
Raised on Footfall, and aboard ship, she developed an affinity for unusual cultures, and picking up languages and secrets easily. Trained in the noble arts from a young age, she was a capable young woman capable of blending with all strata of society by her early teens. In her mid-teens, she bribed her way to Scintilla and tricked the local nobility to accept her into their midst.
Bored with the dull life of a Scintillan noble, she dallied with the idea of approaching the Inquisition, but decided that restoring the house was a better goal. She returned to Footfall in her early twenties and starting working towards the restoration of the house. It was quickly recognised that her talents were best applied in a covert role, and she started working within other houses, feeding their information back to the house to garner more profit. She keeps an eye out for any potential avenue for profit that could be used to restore the name of the house to prominence.
As a house operative, she has honed her skills to perfection, becoming proficient with many aspects of operation in a rogue trader dynasty.
Most recently, she was working within the Winterscale dynasty when two of their ships were brought down in the Malezial system by an Eldar Raider. Amongst the crew rescued by Yorke and his crew, she signed up with Yorke's dynasty when after being dropped off on Footfall, she heard that Cymbry was on board and looking for assistance.
A master, or should that be mistress, of disguise and subtlety, Riann has a fluid personality that changes with her projected persona.
Aboard ship, and acting as an officer of the Yorke dynasty, she acts in an efficient and no-nonsense fashion, dealing with business in a manner-of-fact and sometimes cold fashion. She has also shown to be very personable, but also resistant to the charms of others.
As a noble, she can range between the privileged princess of a wealthy household, to the seductive mistress of her fate and more guises yet.
She appears to enjoy dressing well, and has a collection of fine items in her quarters. She doesn't appear to place any great attachment to those items though, but rather uses them to benefit her in dealing with others.
