Ember Whitethorne

A portrait of Whitethorne, comissioned in 1705.

Amber Whitethorne (better known as Ember Whitethorne) is a Dark Berrian politican who was born in 1678 in Harbourvale in the Dark Berry Islands. After fleeing to Ergo Sum in Lac Glacei following the outbreak of the Dark Berry Islands civil war, she befriended Sofia Fasthey and became politically engaged in the Sofian cause, eventually becoming a clerk in the Council of Women.

Although holding the most junior position in the Council of Women, Whitethorne is known for being a great public communicator, and often extensively tours the islands to maintain a focus and dialogue with the people of the islands on the issues affecting them and trying to bring those to the attention of the council.

Whitethorne has a younger sister named Renata who also joined the Sofian cause during the civil war.
