Millie Lauven is the older sister of Darnette Lauven (the guild's new resident paleontologist).  Like her sister she is strong-willed and independent.  Both sisters were well-educated at Gwylim University, but then life paths diverged.  Unlike her rough-edged, freewheeling, and bohemian sister, Millie prefers the creature comforts of society.  As such she has become more refined, cultured and socially adept during stints at various jobs such as merchant, court scribe, personal secretary, and library transcription, before taking a job at the museum as a steward.
