Martle

Description
Martle Chalcedony Requite Meliiamne is a tiefling paladin, though she spends most of season 1 disguised as an elf. She has ash-grey hair, gold eyes, and "resting, moderate, and active bitch face." In her elf disguise, she has pink skin light enough to appear merely sunburned, contacts to give her elf-like eyes, wears baggy pants with her tail wrapped around her leg, and covers her hair and horn nubs with a headscarf. As her normal self, she has light red skin and metal horn sheaths/extenders.

Martle resists being told what to do, though she becomes more willing to cooperate with others as the show progresses. She is bisexual, but has issues with becoming emotionally close with others. The only people she is consistently open with are her siblings, Lelia and Theran. She enjoys drinking olive brine and smashing people with her hammer, preferring to attack enemies rather than heal her allies.

Backstory
Martle and Lelia's parents were drowned in a tsunami when they were children, giving Martle a phobia of waves and open water, and resulting in their adoption by Theran's family. Later, their moon was attacked by the Inquisition of Purity, and their community was massacred. Martle, Lelia, and Theran all survived, but escaped separately. Martle was unaware anyone else had survived, and wandered the galaxy alone looking for revenge until she met Theran by chance on Starbase Cronus.

On the podcast
Martle met the rest of the crew on Starbase Cronus, teaming up with them (reluctantly) to hunt zombies. After they cleared out the station, they were jointly rewarded with the ship the Torog, and she took the captain's chair. After about a year, they are contacted by Ashley Deacon, a Hunter they met while killing zombies on the starbase. She hires them to rescue a group of archeologists in some ruins, where Martle confirms that Theran recognizes her, and they agree to kill the Inquisition if they find them.

After Arula is killed, the crew is summoned to the Parliament asteroid, where they meet Eric, aka Olive Boy. Impressed by his love of olive brine, Martle goes on a date with him, but is interrupted by Z having a psychotic episode. With apparent reluctance, Martle takes care of Z and returns to their suite to find two children Rell and Juniper have taken in. She expresses annoyance at the situation, but doesn't force the children to leave. In her haste to shower, she forgets her makeup for her elf disguise, and is revealed as a tiefling to the rest of the crew. Theran returns from his meeting with Lelia and tells her she's alive, to Martle's disbelief. After he convinces Martle Lelia is alive and tells her about Lelia's request, Martle sabotages her budding relationship with Eric to break Quin out of prison for her sister, and they escape from the asteroid as criminals.
