'''Secily Iopara''' is a secondary [[troll]] in ''[[Vast Error]]''. Her associated alchemic sigil is Talc.

She was first revealed in the February 11th Trollodex reveal, alongside an unknown troll. Her bullet points were:
* never forgets a face
* you don't want to be on her list
* pessimistic duelist

==Etymology==
Secily is a variant of Cecily, a real-life name ultimately derived from Latin ''caecus ''(blind, dim-sighted). Iopara possibly comes from Iopara Inc., a wind turbine company.

== Biography ==

== Personality and Traits ==
Secily is cold, calculated and cynical, harboring some very pessimistic views on society and its inhabitants. She strives to keep an air of professionalism around her at all times, and struggles whenever things aren't under her control. Thankfully for her, she's been in her line of work for long enough that she's gotten very good at keeping things under her control.

Secily's survival ability allows her to recall any face, event or information she has previously learned as she pleases. In Snowbound Blood's narration, this is likened to information being photocopied directly into her mind.

== Relationships ==

=== Ahlina Robiad ===
[[Ahlina Robiad|Ahlina]] was and is perhaps the most important person in Secily's life, as her bonded matesprit before her death. Secily insists that everything she does, she does for Ahlina's sake - to please her, to commemorate her, to avenge her.

=== Yeshin Laevis ===
[[Yeshin Laevis|Yeshin]] is Secily's kismesis. As such, she has a habit of getting under Secily's nerves.

=== Mshiri Libeta ===
[[Mshiri Libeta|Mshiri]] is Secily's moirail, though Secily harbors red feelings for Mshiri.

=== Sestro Enthal & Hamifi Hekrix ===
[[Sestro Enthal|Sestro]] and [[Hamifi Hekrix|Hamifi]] are (some of) Secily's superiors. Sestro would like to engage in more casual and personal conversations with Secily, if it weren't for Secily cutting him short. On the other hand, Hamifi is just as cold as Secily is when engaging in conversation, and doesn't waste even a sentence on anything other than Secily's direct task at hand.

Secily is mentioned to have practically raised the two, though Secily thinks of them strictly as employers for most of the game. However, when Secily learns that Sestro has entered a weakened state from overexerting himself, she's immediately concerned and questions Hamifi's decision not to call her about it. Hamifi soon after expresses that Secily taught Hamifi to not be sentimental nor trustful, but somewhat smiles when Secily admits that she does trust her.

Secily's relationship with Sestro and Hamifi becomes somewhat strained when she learns the truth behind her matesprit's death, despite their lack of actual involvement with the incident, but rather through association. After Secily's conversation with Gerbat, however, she commits to talking things out with Sestro to sort it out.

=== Oricka Rourst ===
[[Oricka Rourst|Oricka]] and Secily have been friends for a long time.

=== Necron Exmort ===
Secily meets [[Necron Exmort|Necron]] during the events of Snowbound Blood in Volume 7, and the two shortly after agree to partner up to track down Noxious.
