“	The Erskin family used to regularly sponsor concerts in Tara. One time, the King was there, adn he must've liked my performance because he appointed me the Royal Court Head Musician, even though I was so young! My dad and Leopold were more excited than I was...	„

Description

A young girl clings tightly to her musical sheets, as if they were her lifeline. Her lips constantly move, as she hums to herself new songs that spring into her mind.

Briana sells mostly music books, instruments, and score scrolls.

History

She was born in Emain Macha, but her performances led her to all corners of the world, leaving her with few memories of her hometown. To get to the position she is now, she obtained a recommendation from Bishop Wyllow. Through him, she became the student of Leopold, the Tara Cathedral Music Director. The man had to teach her how to compose from scratch, as her methodology for it was all wrong.

She got appointed as the Royal Court Head Musician following a concert where King Ethur Mac Cuill II personally recruited her following her performance.

She gets stage fright, and her dad is managing her finances.

Mainstream Story

Generation 11: Sword of the Gods

The Milletian receives a message from a young girl named Briana. She hears about the Milletian talking about the Brionac, the Sword of the Gods. The Milletian then goes to Tara Rath Castle's Royal Music Room to meet her. She is very curious about the Brionac. She also wrote a small piece title "The Parthalonian Prince." She was inspired by Buchanan, who told her about a book named Brionac that tells the story about a race called the Parthalonians. According to the book, the Parthalonians appriciated dancing and music. She then explains the story behind the Parthalonian Race. There was prince by the name of Tuan. He was admired by all the other Parthalonians. Tuan was in love with a girl named Arianell. Giving up his throne and royalty, Tuan marries Arianell because she was a commoner. Eventually, a deadly plague started to spread around the Parthalonian race. Tuan could not do anything as he watched people die one by one. Arianell soon caught the plague and died in Tuan's Arms. Tuan was the lone survivor of his race, which inspired Briana's music piece. Briana then mentions the location of Buchanan, who is currently in Tir Chonaill, searching for the Book of Partholon. He is doing some investigation in Ciar Dungeon. Briana was reluctant to give a pass to the Milletian to use in order to find Buchanan. The Milletian then rushes to Ciar Dungeon to find Buchanan, and gather information about the Parthalonian race.

After meeting with Buchanan inside Ciar Dungeon, the Milletian returns to Tara to talk to Briana. Excited, she asks what Buchanan told the Milletian. She says that the Brionac was used by Lugh during the Second Battle of Mag Tuireadh, however, it might have been just named after the Parthalonian Brionac and that Lugh's Brionac does not have any magical powers. She asks the Milletian to listen and give their opinion to a song she wrote, inspired by the Parthalonian Prince, Tuan. She then gives the Milletian copy of the music if they enjoyed it.
