I retired before they threw me out."''<ref name="dine">{{Citation|https://sunlesssea.gamepedia.com/Presbyterate_Adventuress|Invite her to dine with you|Sunless Sea|}}</ref></blockquote>As a member of the Royal Navy, she used her knowledge of the continent to forge a path through the Elder Continent for the Admiralty, one that even the [[Presbyterate]] was unaware of. This, and the resulting victories in various respects (intelligence, war, et cetera), led to the founding of [[London|London's]] only colony, [[The Carnelian Coast|Port Carnelian]].<ref>{{Citation|https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Join_her_in_her_rooms|Join her in her rooms|Fallen London|}}</ref>

| The Presbyterate are unaware of her role in establishing Port Carnelian, but they are keeping an eye on her.<ref>{{Citation|https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Betray_the_Presbyterate_Adventuress%27_trust|Betray the Presbyterate Adventuress' trust|Fallen London|}}</ref>

| <blockquote>''"We have too many names for [[The Mountain of Light|her]]. One for every day of the year... I could never get them right. And I resented her. I still do. She has all that life to give, and none of it for me. Because my bloody father got greedy."''<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlesssea.gamepedia.com/Adam%27s_Way#Adam.27s_Way|Go ashore with the Adventuress|Sunless Sea|}}</ref></blockquote>The Adventuress was exiled from the Elder Continent because her father outlived the time he was allotted (''None shall live a thousand years''); he was killed permanently, and she was exiled and given a century to live (''thou shalt not live a hundred years''). She left the Royal Navy shortly before the end of her term of assigned service to prevent more casualties from Presbyterate assassins.

| | |
| While she would readily accept being executed by the Presbyterate, she would rather die in a much less mundane manner: perhaps a fierce battle.<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlesssea.gamepedia.com/Presbyterate_Adventuress|Ask the Adventuress why you've been ambushed by assassins from her homeland|Sunless Sea|}}</ref>
