Roselyn (IPA(key) /'roʊzlɪn/) or Rose (IPA(key) /roʊz/) is a female Snow Wolf Keidran and the cousin of Euchre. After nearly being executed by Humans and later spared by the former Grand Templar Mary Silverlock herself, Roselyn found herself in the servitude of Saria au Gruhen as a means of escape, with the two of them forming a close friendship during their many years together. After the death of her master, and the disappearance of her master's husband a while later, she was left to guard their estate.
After returning to the estate for the first time since his amnesia it was soon discovered by Trace Legacy that Roselyn had actually passed away 1-2 years before the present events of the main comic. Furthermore it was revealed that Trace had been mostly responsible for her demise, using her for his Black Mana experiments in an attempt to find a way to revive Saria.
Appearance[]
In Roselyn's youth, she had red hair which is tied in a braid and her fur is entirely white. She carries a knife with a black hand-guard and red handle.
In time serving under Trace, her hair has grown white streaks and is now contained in a bun with a gold rose pin in her hair. Roselyn also wears glasses and is seen wearing a green suit while walking around Trace's mansion.
In Roselyn's human form, she retains most of her Keidran appearance, but instead has white skin instead of fur.
Biography[]
History[]
Roselyn was born in Wolf Keidran territory and had a cousin called Euchre who had an immense magical potential despite being a Keidran. Although her present self can be quite childish at times she was much worse when she was younger, even to the point of just being a bit of a brat. She may have acted like a girl but she also had no problem picking on boys her age and get into all kinds of trouble.[1]
After perfecting a transformation spell that could turn himself from Keidran to Human almost perfectly Euchre decided it was time to follow his dream of joining the Templar Academy to further his magical abilities. On the journey there Roselyn pretended to attack him as a prank but when he explained his plan to join the Academy her mood changed and she desperately tried to convince him not to go, since he would likely be executed if his identity as a Keidran was discovered. Despite this warning Euchre carried on.
A while later, somewhere between 7 and 9 months prior to Raine's birth, Roselyn ventured into Human territory for an unknown reason, presumably in a bid to make contact with Euchre. According to Raine, she definitely wasn't spying for the Wolf Keidran, but she the humans that caught her had accused her of such. Roselyn was sentenced to be hanged but in a last chance effort to save her life she called for Euchre. A Templar apprentice (who appears to be a young Trace Legacy) was sent to fetch him and bring him to the gallows where Roselyn was. When Euchre arrived it was clear how much he had achieved while he was gone, holding a high position within Templar and the lover of Mary Silverlock, who was the Headmistress of the Templar college in Edinmire at the time, on her way to becoming the Grand Templar. Mary had also gotten word of Roselyn and arrived with Euchre, upon seeing it was Roselyn Euchre tried to form an explanation to Mary about her. However, fearing the secret surrounding his race may be exposed, he stopped and returned to his chambers, leaving Roselyn to be hanged.
Euchre's response to the situation led Mary to deduce that Roselyn and Euchre must know each other. She ordered the execution halted, and interrogated Roselyn through the use of magic. It is currently unknown how much Mary discovered from Roselyn, but it was enough to reveal Euchre's race as Wolf Keidran and for Mary to become furious with Euchre over both his abandonment of Roselyn on the gallows and failing to inform her of his true race before they began a sexual relationship.
In conversations with her daughter about her father, Mary claimed to have released Roselyn to Keidran territory on the condition that she not return, whereas in reality Mary incarcerated her for an unknown period of time. Eventually, Saria au Gruhen and an unknown member of the Templar aided her in escaping. After her escape Roselyn was offered a job by Saria to be her paid servant, with nowhere else to go she accepted.
The Dragon Masquerade[]
The events of the Masquerade take place prior to Trace's marriage and at least a decade after Roselyn was rescued from execution. During the time of her escape and the Masquerade Roselyn had become a very close friend of Saria's as well as her servant, with the two referencing that they have had to hide the extent of their relationship in the past.
Roselyn is selected by Lady Nora to be the Bearer of The Dragon Facade, a masquerade mask made for Lady Nora every 4 years, which contains a pure mana crystal that won't break despite constant use. Natani, on a mission with Zen, by order of Clovis to capture The Dragon Facade, intercepts Roselyn and interrogates her for the location of The Dragon Facade, before magically impersonating her and casting a sleeping spell on her.
Before Natani and Zen left the Masquerade, leaving the Dragon Facade behind as part of a deal with Lady Nora, Roselyn was found in the Flower bed where Natani concealed her, and brought to the Masquerade.
Chapter 16[]
Roselyn is first seen in this chapter as part of a flashback to her youth, taking place from the point Euchre left for the Templar Academy up until the day that he would decide to leave her for dead instead of revealing his identity as a Keidran.

Personality[]
Roselyn has been seen to be slightly mischievous, but can be serious when needed. She shows great caution with her relatives, as she was greatly distressed when Euchre said he was going to join the Templars under the guise of a human. She still holds a grudge against her cousin as he didn't go to help her when she was about to be executed.

Trivia[]
- An April Fool's Day comic[2] revealed that Roselyn was [Database Error]'s mother. However, this is not canon.
- Roselyn carried a knife when she was first introduced, but it is unknown how she carries it with her, or if she has carried it since becoming Saria's Servant.
- Roselyn's date of death was revealed on Page 1113 as the year 480, coupled with the reveal that the "Real" Roselyn had therefore passed away 2 years before the present events of the Main Comic. Whether Rose had her birthday or not the year of her death isn't specified so whether she was 25 or 26 when she actually died is unknown.
- Roselyn and her cousin Euchre both seem to have been able to live very long lives compared to a natural Keidran's lifespan. Euchre claims to be 21, but it is clear from timeline events he would have to be in his late 20s, and the real Roselyn was able to live until 25 or 26 years old which is about mid-eighties to early-nineties for a Keidran. Both the current mysterious Roselyn and Euchre are both in their late 20s which is comparable to around 100-110 years old for a Keidran, so it is evident that magic has played both a role in extending Euchre's life and allowing Roselyn to remain alive in whatever form she is currently. It is likely Euchre is consciously using his own magic to extend his lifetime. It is currently unknown whether he himself had any involvement in Roselyn's current age but he had been fully aware of Trace Legacy's role in such, as seen on Page 1021.
