The Silver-Haired Maid, previously the Silver-Haired Scout, is the personal maid for The King. However, she is actually the Spymaster for the Royal Court.
Appearance[]
Silver-Haired Maid is a short, beautiful young woman with silver hair, silver eyes, and pale skin. She wears a standard maid uniform at all times.
Personality[]
Being quiet, Silver-Haired Maid keeps to herself and silently takes everything in as she calculates a plan of action for her team. When off duty, can be jovial, friendly, and even talkative with her friends.
All this though belays her cunning and ability to plan in the shadows, having anticipated that Spy's Party would go above what she secretly paid them to do and orchestrated a rebellion in the Desert Kingdom to put Desert Princess back on the throne. She's also deceptively ruthless towards her enemies, showing no mercy to traitors to her King.
Chronology[]
Dai Katana Side Story[]
A rare bad day
Years ago, Silver-Haired Scout worked alongside her Adventurer Party challenging the Dungeon of the Dead and met with great success. She functioned as her Party's scout and at some point had dealings with the Rogues Guild, and became acquainted with them to some degree. Her interactions with Female Warrior however, implied the two had some negative history between each other as they seemed to tease and trade barbs.
At some point, after the Golden Party had conquered the Dungeon of the Dead, Silver-Haired Scout was recruited into the Royal Court as the Spy Master for the Royal Secret Service. To hide her true position, Silver-Haired Scout became the "Silver-Haired Maid".

Taking care of business with her King
As the Royal Court held counsel over the recent events of the Kingdom, Silver-Haired Maid stood beside The King at the ready; listening intently at the troubles of the world. Suddenly, the personal maid for The Princess announced that she had snuck out of the castle and had been captured by a cult of Goblins, to be sacrificed! After hearing the Goblin Cult had taken the Princess to the Dungeon of the Dead, Silver-Haired Maid silently agreed that Sword Maiden was the best option to lead the rescue operation. However, Female Merchant introduced Goblin Slayer to the Court, the specialist in Goblin Slaying and agreed that Goblin Slayer was qualified to take over the operation.
Later, as Hero and her Party arrived, Silver-Haired Maid watched as she excitedly begged Gold-Ranked Padfoot to continue his story of their Adventuring days with a smile.
After the Princess was rescued, Silver-Haired Maid joined the King is slaughtering the corrupt Nobles plotting rebellion.

Little fun before work
As the Cold War with the Desert Kingdom began heating up, Silver-Haired Maid worked on forming a plan with The King and Female Merchant to find a way to get the Desert Princess back into power so they could prevent full scale war. Silver-Haired Maid decided to use the Rogues Guild to infiltrate the Kingdom and break the Princess' handmaidens out so they could rally local support for the Desert Princess. Second, she tasked Female Merchant to gain Goblin Slayer's help in wiping out the Goblin Army the Desert Captain was breeding for the Desert Minister. After she had set things into motion, Silver-Haired Maid went into a bar that was a front for the Rogues Guild to enjoy a drink and enact the next part of her plan.

Recognizing the growing corruption in the Water Town City Guard, as well as the beginnings of a Human Supremacist movement, Silver-Haired Maid took it upon herself to set things in motion to collapse them. She got into contact with her Client in the Rogues Guild as well as Familiar Mage in order to set Spy and his Party on a hit of a prostitute who was a half-sister of a corrupt Guardswoman. Silver-Haired Maid had discovered the prostitute had kept a ledger of corrupt city guards which Silver-Haired Maid had tasked Familiar Mage with securing.
After a string of setbacks, Spy had completed the mission and personally delivered the ledger to Silver-Haired Maid, having discovered the secret reason behind his initial hit. Impressed with his abilities, Silver-Haired Maid thanked him for his service, decided to keep an eye on Spy's Party, and made them her "Go-to" Party from the Rogues Guild. With the ledger in hand, she set about "taking care" of the corrupt Guardsmen.

After Priestess was forced to act as the Princess's double, Silver-Haired Maid began investigating the source of Princess's peril as well.
As the tourney took place, Silver-Haired Maid managed to uncover that Supreme God's Paladin had indeed greatly overstepped his bounds in his insane "equality" crusade. Seeing he could not be reasoned with, Silver-Haired Maid set up a hit so Knight of Diamonds could take him out.
