==Appearance and Personality==
== Quotes ==
She appreciates [[Mraize]]'s refined manner and his taste in clothing, and enjoys the fact that he does not require her to use a servant's entrance. She believes that the notion of servants being "invisible" is a fallacy since they are usually closely watched by the house steward and their master's guests, and notes that [[Ghostbloods|Mraize's associates]] are particulary wary. She enjoys her work and finds it fulfilling, since there will always be a need for clean clothes.{{book ref|sa3|i|8}}
{{quote
|The need for clean clothing outlived disasters. The end of the world could come, but that would only mean more bloodstains to wash.
| There was art to doing laundry.

==History==
Mem was quite skilled at the art of doing laundry, with knowledge of many different dyes, fabrics, and cleaners. She washed clothes at a central location in [[Vedenar]] with other washwomen. Mem successfully cleaned a particularly tough stain from the [[Mycalin]]-dyed pants of Mraize's [[Azish]] cavalrylord's suit; she thought the stain was a combination of oil and blood, but in truth it was [[aether]]. She earned herself a three-[[sphere|firemark]] bonus and high praise from Mraize.{{book ref|sa3|i|8}}

| Mem, you are an absolute genius. Not every hunter carries a spear, and this is proof indeed.

She briefly had [[Pom]] as an assistant, and thought she was surprisingly beautiful for a washgirl. She was flabbergasted when Pom destroyed one of Mraize's paintings, as she was not aware of Pom's true identity as the [[Herald]] Shalash.{{book ref|sa3|i|8}}
