Doir Jen Merah
Doir Jen Merah; born 17.X.1621 (Kingsgate, Suthergold). Daughter of Merah Jor Calam and Siobhan Levy. Her parents were of genteel but undistinguished stock, acquainted with the Everstone family circle by virtue of service owed to the Ryker Everstone during his first reign as Duke of Goldshire. Their tenure at court in Goldshire Hamlet ended abruptly in early 1621, whereupon they returned to Suthergold and were wed shortly before Siobhan came to term with the daughter they would name Doir.
As a child and young adult Doir's educational attainment was unremarkable, she was however distinguished by her sporting prowess, robust physicality, a certain poise or hauteur, and a distinctly brusque manner towards the lower classes. She achieved some small measure of notoriety as a polo player at the county level. It is not entirely clear which of these attributes subsequently equipped her for a career as a governess, yet this was to be her first recorded salaried position as a woman of independent means when in 1640, at the age of 19, she was appointed as tutor and guardian to a trio of daughters belonging to a Vanic complex marriage community in Wintergleam. The records of her tenure, indeed the identities of her employers, were lost in the upheavals of the Auspicious Occasion in 1651, yet it is apparent that, by 1645, she had entered the employment rolls of the Tarjeisson Complex Marriage Trust in the service of Eliza Carstens, and that it was that connection by which she secured an introduction to Isabella Kalirion and thereby at the age of 26 in 1647 secured the position of governess for the young Daniyal ibn Daniyal Simrani-Kalirion, who was 11 years old at the time.
Dismissed from service with the House of Simrani-Kalirion in 1649 for misconduct. Gave birth to daughter, Selardi Jen Daniyal, on 14.X.1649. Surrendering the child into the custody of her parents in Kingsgate, Doir went on to accept a position as physical fitness instructor with the ESB research facility located off-shore from Ura'Bos where she remained until the last skeleton garrison of Imperial Forces was evacuated from the island in 1652.
Subsequent career in ESB and then Modanese service consisted of discrete appointments in the service of the Prince of Modan until his incapacitation in the aftermath of the White Plague. She next reappeared in 1671 as a co-signatory to the Declaration of Sovereignty of Suthergold and Norestria, thereafter serving as SysOps (Speaker) of the Parliament of DARA, the partially automated legislature of the Sovereign Confederation. On 15.XIII.1672 she assumed the position of Regent whilst the Ryker OS underwent routine maintenance and backup.
Perished with the destruction of Kingsgate on 20.XIV.1695 AN, the fateful first day of the Scouring which marked the termination of the Second Elwynnese Civil War.
