Eliseo/Introduction

From From The Ashes Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

Eliseo ("Cheo") Madrigal is a second-generation American of Costa Rican descent. He and his wife, Nieve, are recent arrivals to Detroit from the Chicago area. They've taken up residence in a modest bungalow in NoHam/Banglatown, which serves as both home and office for the couple.

Eliseo and Nieve earn their living as relationship counselors. They aren't licensed therapists, and their approaches are consequently unorthodox. However, their practice is sex-positive and Kink-friendly, and they serve couples and groups living alternative lifestyles that are often misunderstood or even disparaged by mainstream professionals. Most of their clients arrive by word of mouth among such fringe communities.

Local Kithain may have heard that the couple are knights of House Scathach, questing in Chariot County by the grace and leave of her majesty Queen Mary-Elizabeth of the Kingdom of Grass. Details of their mission are thus far unclear. Those with ties to Caer Palatine, or who seek information there, might know that the Madrigals have built a small reputation to the west as nightmare hunters.

This is the first extended foray for the Wilder couple out of the Duchy of the Four Winds, but it is not uncommon for Scathach Sidhe to travel in connection with their grim and lonely work. Cheo and Nieve are unusual only in that they operate as a team, finding solace in one another.
