Biography

Reporting on power without losing patience

Hydie Mordath first attracts Theodora Greyman's attention through a press badge that clashes with her witchlike dress. She follows the public contests surrounding Randidly and the Alpha Cosmos, pressing figures who would rather control their own narratives. Her twitching lips and throbbing temple during a later exchange reveal the cost of maintaining professional composure around evasive or absurd answers. (Chapters 1294, 1450, 1816)

Appearance and personality

Hydie has light-grey eyes, shoulder-length black hair, and a frilly black dress that resembles a witch's outfit more than ordinary press clothing. She is persistent and visibly restrains irritation. (Chapter 1294)

Abilities and progression

No combat Class or image is established. Her effective abilities are observation, questioning, and functioning amid powerful competitors without surrendering the reporter's role.
