In Matilda’s own humble opinion, she is too smart, too pretty, and too talented to be stuck scrubbing greasy dishes just because it’s the family business. Besides, it’s called the Lyte Brigade; doesn’t that mean adventuring is supposed to be the family business?

Age: 21

Occupation: Waitress

Likes: exploring exciting new career opportunities, studying magic, her hair, her family (most of the time)

Dislikes: fish-on-a-stick, being a waitress, Nolan (sometimes)

Elder sister of aspiring guild captain Nolan Lyte, Matilda has been dutifully assisting her parents at the family inn since her early adolescence. However, Matilda recognised years ago that keeping an inn is not how she wants to spend her life.

Gifted with magic, Matilda feels that her talents and previous magical training are being squandered in a life filled with fish-on-a-stick and dirty dishes. While her parents have promised that she will one day be able to pursue a career in magic, she has been waiting for that day to come for several years.

Fortunately, Nolan’s plan to reestablish the Lyte Brigade may just provide her with the opportunity she needs to realise her ambitions for herself. Of course, she would never admit that she thinks her little brother has had a good idea.
