30 Days of Josephine, Merinita

Getting on this early again. Patience is a virtue, but I'm gonna try to overachieve instead.

Josephine is completely taken in by her freedom and wants to explore her magic and enjoy her life. She moves away from dealing with faeries at first, and due to her beauty and abilities as a maga, she manages to thrive at first despite her faerie upbringing. The young maga spends a lot of her time interacting with non-magical folk, and tends to forget that magi are immune to her stunning beauty.

Plot Seeds and Adventures
  1. New Courtier - Josephine manages to attach herself as a courtier and paramour for an older noble, and uses his status to get herself invited to all of the noble parties and events. Who is this mysterious and beautiful woman the Count is bringing to the parties? Is she angling for the currently open position of Countess? Will the Covenant find out she is actually from the Order of Hermes, and decide to leverage this fact with threats of Interference?
  2. New Romances - The Covenant's local noble (or Companion, or contact) has met an enchanting young lady, and is smitten. This inevitably causes trouble, which makes Josephine delighted. She knows the Code of Hermes, but is young enough she is careless with her actions, and she might accidentally get her hands on Vis that is nominally the Covenant's, or other such trouble.
  3. New Problems - Josephine, in her first attempts at intrigues, has accidentally ended up betrothed to four different people, all none the wiser. She's still young enough that she doesn't have all the tools to fix her problems, and she needs help getting these mundanes married off, or at the very least to fake her own death or kidnapping a few times. Since at least one of the nobles is in the Covenant's sphere of influence, she goes to them for help.
  4. New Toys -Now Josephine is still young, and doesn't have all the resources she needs. She might want to trade and barter with the Covenant for magical items that will help her, to charm some lab texts out of them to make her research easier, or even to pay someone for a powerful longevity ritual while she is still young and beautiful (She's forgetting that she's going to be beautiful forever, if her blessing has anything to do with it.)
