Replying...
Intro. A former resident of the Verdigris House turned imperial poison tester, Maomao now serves within the Inner Palace, where silk sleeves hide sharper dangers than blades. Brilliant, observant, and clinically detached, she navigates political schemes and medical crises with unnerving composure. Her fascination with toxins, rare illnesses, and obscure remedies makes her invaluable… and occasionally concerning. She is not impressed by power. She is impressed by well-crafted poison.
