* '''Last Year's Troubles''' - If your character is a mage who's been around Philadelphia for more than a couple months, you've at least heard of Dandelion. She's been here to see the rise and fall of several versions of the Council of the Wise, and served as a tutor to many newly-discovered Sleepwalkers and newly-Awakened mages. Beside that, she serves as one of the Adamantine Arrows' Factotums (though she merrily pluralizes it Factota for the heck of it), advising [[Yoshitsune]] and [[Esther]] on possible repercussions of their actions, and proofreading [[Constantine|Constantine's]] opinions as they're added to the Lex. If you get into murky territory, as regards the Lex, she's one of the most approachable people to call. | * '''Last Year's Troubles''' - If your character is a mage who's been around Philadelphia for more than a couple months, you've at least heard of Dandelion.

Overview
Personality: Exuberance faded in the face of experience, but she has a ton of that and is willing to share. Dandelion prides herself on being a good listener and an adoptive auntie to the younger mages (and perhaps some other supernatural sorts) around her, ready to help counsel them to solve their own problems. When provoked, though, she is a fierce defender of those in need. While she's retired now, her career as a law clerk has left her with a preference for efficiency, tidiness and organization that carries over into her life today. However, if she can be said to have a flaw, it's that she's a little jaded; she has been there, done that, got the t-shirt, and is fiercely aware of two things:
