Mari Fenren

Marinella Fenren (née Strano), nicknamed Mari, and formally known as Lady Marinella Fenren, Baroness of Chino, is the wife of Olaf Fenren, and the mother of their four children: twin sons Elanzo, and Enzo, as well as daughters Amillia, and Serina. She is also the older sister of Vezio Strano, mother-in-law of Luca Renario, and the first cousin-once-removed of Rosita Burgi.

General Information
The second child, and daughter, of Araldo Strano and Catia Strano, Mari was born and raised on her family’s ancestral estate, Villa Friscella, in Chailea, alongside her older brother, Vezio Strano. During her youth, Mari’s parents strongly protected her from the outside world. Resenting this control, the young Mari drowned herself in her faith, becoming an Acolyte of the Chantry, allowing her to blend with "real citizens", which led to her meeting foreigner Olaf Fenren. After convincing him to allow her to travel the countryside with him, the two eventually fell in love and married. Months following their marriage, the two discovered that she was in fact pregnant, driving them to return to Villa Friscella, where they would settle to have four children.

Mari is a woman who is both dutiful and complex: in many ways, she implemented the expectations of her house, while in others, she found herself at odds. She deeply loves her husband and children, and her maternal disposition influences much of what she does. She is also an extremely intelligent woman, with shades of ruthlessness, depending on the matter. She was capable of deducing that her son Enzo had made a pact with an unknown entity, as well as that Puck, a half-elf vagrant her husband took in, was not only the infamous thief Robin Goodfellow, but also, in a secret relationship with her daughter Amillia. She was also clever enough to use this information against Puck, forcing him to leave, and securing her daughter’s future.

Nonetheless, she was, to a great extent, a peaceful woman who never sought conflict.

Relationship With Puck
Mari was extremely wary of Puck, especially after hearing that he attempted to steal from Olaf. She was never intentionally rude to him, however, only seeming against him when thinking of her family; such as when she wanted him removed from Chino upon their moving in, knowing that it could hurt their already damaged public image.

Of course, due to previously being wary of him, she usually suspected the worst with him, especially in regards to his closeness with her children. Due to her assumptions of Puck’s part, or knowledge, in Enzo’s pact, she eventually went digging and learned that he was Robin Goodfellow, and secretly in a relationship with Amillia; though to what extent she didn’t know. Driven by fear for her daughter’s future, and in a way her own, Mari used this newfound knowledge against Puck, forcing him to leave both Amillia and Vaalise.

Puck never saw her again after that night.
