“Don't give up! We can defeat these Mordrem!
— Belinda Delaqua
Belinda Jane Delaqua[1] (born in 1300 AE)[2] is a member of the Seraph and the older sister of Marjory Delaqua.[3] Marjory often jokes about Belinda being fat, and when young, called her older sister "Big Beli". As her older sister, Belinda often looked after Marjory for their worrisome mother.
Biography[edit]
Living World Season 1[edit]
In late 1326 AE, during the attack on the Tower of Nightmares, Belinda was posted at Fort Salma and remained there until Scarlet Briar's attack on Lion's Arch had been stopped.
Living World Season 2[edit]
After Scarlet Briar assaulted Lion's Arch in early 1327 AE, she was sent on a long expedition into Brisban Wildlands to hunt down a group of black-market traders. This eventually led to her placement at Tangle Root, which was attacked by strange vines and plant creatures. After an attack by the Inquest, Corporal Jantzen ordered Belinda to return to Fort Salma to give them an update on the situation and request reinforcements. However, Fort Salma was attacked by Mordrem. Though the Mordrem were defeated, the outpost was completely destroyed and Belinda was found dead, having been entangled and strangled by a vine.
Her ghost could be seen standing at the abandoned Fort Salma for quite some time after the attack. These sightings began to become hostile, and Explorer Campbell was sent to investigate only to be assaulted by Belinda's confused spirit, who thought Campbell to be a Mordrem. Marjory and Kasmeer arrived to intervene just in time, though, and Explorer Campbell's life was spared. The sisters exchanged words before Belinda performed a ritual that bound her soul with her sword, now wielded by Marjory, and Belinda's soul was finally put to rest.
Belinda's body was buried at Shaemoor Cemetery, where her gravestone now can be found.
