Biography
Merbi’s bloodline goes all the way back to the Nobility on Ginea. His family had been one of the Noble families that sat on the original governing council millennia ago, before Ginea was destroyed. The family had fled after the rising tension between Soahc and the council, due to having a large Cihphist background within the family. Having feared being ostracized once the inevitable war broke out, they relocated to a few outlying colonies on the far ends of the empire. Surviving through the millennia of war and ultimately siding with Soahc, they settled in his newly founded empire where the family continued to prosper and thrive.

After the uniting of the Huzien and Human Empires, the Teral Nobility relocated their family to New Ginea and quickly established relations with important individuals throughout the Huzien Empire. With their resources, they were able to establish holdings within the leading industries and bring up their status within the Huzien hierarchy. Merbi was born to Sanha Teral and Veshani Teral. His parents wanted the best for him and enrolled him at the top private schools on Thae. It was discovered in his teenage years that he was gifted in the Cihphist Arts. He went into Academia and ultimately received a Doctorate in Cihphist Studies with focuses in the Enesmic Plane and Cihphist development.

Merbi went on to take professorships at many of the highest ranking Universities throughout the Huzien Alliance. In his later career he was offered a professorship at Etan Rachnie where he eventually held the positions of Dean of Kineticism and Dean of Education. At the age of 185 he was made the Headmaster of the Academy and has been ever since.

Motivation
Merbi is motivated by a desire to see the young mentored and trained by the experienced. He desires to see exceptional ability matured and restraint taught to all Cihphists.
