'''Marilka''' is a short, vulgar blue Tiefling with curly blue hair and short horns. Marilka lost her parents in a terrible flood, but was saved by '''Quoruk'''. She accompanied Quoruk for some time on his adventures until he left her in the care of the Clerics at the Hearthhaven Orphanage in Meadowcraft, with a promise that once he returned he would adopt her. Marilka's discovery of Quoruk's passing enraged her, having spent years waiting for him. But would later be adopted by '''Hildr''', who expressed she knew what it was like to be alone and unwanted for that long.

Marilka spends her time criticizing or outright insulting those around her. A pastime that earned her the scorn of the other orphans and staff at Hearthaven.

When Hildr was out, Maribelle was the only one...the only one who bothered checking up on me. I hope she ain't never gonna have a kid, cause I might get jealous...haha...ha... don't you fucking tell her I said that, you hear?''"

Omerok reminds me of Quoruk in the way he helps folks without asking for anything in return. The fellas' voice often drives me insane but he's always asking how I'm doin' or trying to protect me, as irritatin' as it is. I feel safe around gramps and like whatever shite I've got goin' on he's got just ta' thing to say.''"

Quoruk went and saved me and took me in without a single complaint about it. He fed, clothed, and protected me from all manners of fuckers. All without asking for anythin' in return. I wish...I wish we woulda' gotten more time Quoruk. I...I w...would have told you thank you. That you'da' made a fine father if you ever found a lady lucky enough to tie that wild soul of yours down.
