Kynsella a'Vatale is a young human related to Count Clarence Claybourne of Torre who is being permitted to serve as emissary to River's Rest. At some point she was given the title of Delegate of County Torre. She also holds the title of Margravine of the Sea Princess, placing her third in line of succession. Kynsella's mother is the Viscountess of Torre and the heir apparent to Count Claybourne.

In 5121, Kynsella attended an expedition to find the Manticore near Icemule Trace, where it was found grounded and in the process of being repaired by Hauptwhistle. She continued to monitor the "Manticore situation" on behalf of Torre's interests.

In late Lormesta 5123, Kynsella met with the merchants of River's Rest, successfully convincing them to change some of their pricing practices to encourage more commerce in the town.

While she was not present during Lady Sayilla Javilerre's overland journey between River's Rest and Brisker's Cove, she ensured that preparations were made to see Sayilla off and safely through Torre. Following the deaths of Lady Kasendra Malwind and Sayilla in Fashanos 5123, Kynsella corresponded by mail with both the Viscountess and Count of Torre. She has held public sessions with the citizens of River's Rest about current events.

Kynsella was among those dignitaries present for Kasendra's vigil in Vornavis Keep, in addition to Elidal Dhenin of the Barony of Darkstone, Mayor Talliver Dabbings of Icemule Trace, Eylna Villaune of Oire, and Juramis Du'Lasfeur of the Darkstone Bay Consortium.
