'''Cavalier Adira Mar Arroyo, cd, sc''', is a [[Casilló y Réal|Antoran]] diplomat and knight, currently serving as the 5th [[Deputy Secretary-General of the League of Novaris|Deputy Secretary-General of the League of Novaris.]] A decorated member of the Ministry of Diplomacy and the Order of the Golden Eagle, the most prestigious [[Antoran Chivalry|chivalric order]] in Antora, Mar Arroyo served as the Antoran Ambassador to [[Peragen|South Peragen]] from 2012 to 2018, and the Ambassador to [[Tretrid]] from 2006 to 2012. Before their service abroad Mar Arroyo was the Ministry Spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as part of Prime Minister Luis Miguel Lagos' government. In this capacity, Mar Arroyo coordinated the Ministry's public relations and tone in delivering communiques. They were appointed to this position in 2003 after five years of various posts within the Ministry.
 
Mar Arroyo was knighted as a Golden Knight of the Order of the Golden Eagle, as well as a Knight-Sergeant according to tradition, in 2017 by King [[Sebastián II]]. Their knighthood was awarded for "the most honorable, impartial, and steadfast diplomatic service seen in the Ministries in 20 years." Mar Arroyo is seen by many political experts in their home country as a perfect mediator and administrator, though it has been noted their personality is "librarian-like at best."

In 2003, First Minister Vaca promoted Mar Arroyo to the position of Ministry Spokesperson. This position is in charge of coordinating how the various parts of the Ministry would communicate with the news media and foreign govermments. Mar Arroyo spearheaded a reform of the public relations regulations to be entirely neutral and unbiased while remaining accessible and informative. Taking inspiration from the Antoran Precepts for Honorable and Chivalric Life, Mar Arroyo ensured that all official documents, press conferences, and statements would conform to a specific standard. These reforms were specifically credited by First Minister Vaca of "restoring the feeling of honor to the Ministry" in the public's view after the Catrás Integration of the late 1980's. During this period, Mar Arroyo (then Vividé) met their future wife Dominiqúe Mar Arroyo, who was working as the Foreign Relations Dispatch Officer. The two would initate a relationship and marry in 2005.
 
As recognition for their work, Mar Arroyo was appointed as the Antoran Ambassador (''Embajador'') to Tretrid in 2006 as part of Prime Minister Lagos's second goverment. As the highest-ranking official of the Antoran government in Cynebury, Mar Arroyo would have full authority to negotiate on behalf of the Crown as a plenipotentiary. Their second posting abroad would be as the Ambassador to South Peragen in 2012, picking up immediately after their position in Tretrid. Mar Arroyo's tenure in these positions is largely credited with helping normalize modern relations with both countries.
 
They were knighted in 2017 as a Golden Knight of the Order of the Golden Eagle, becoming the second person in the 2010's and the only Cava to be inducted into the Order. As the Order is the oldest and most prestigious in the nation, Mar Arroyo has become a minor celebrity within the Antoran chivalric community. While not experienced in the area beforehand, they have fully embraced the position and have taken to wearing the traditional belt, armor, and sword of a Antoran knight to official functions.
 
Leaving their post as Ambassador to South Peragen in 2018, Mar Arroyo devoted their time to consulting for the Antoran House of the Nobility on matters of foreign relations as well as writing a book, titled "An Unusual Knight: Autobiography." They also attended many Hastilidium events across the country as a guest of honor and consultant for international athletes.
 
In early 2022, Mar Arroyo was dispatched to the League of Novaris and was appointed as the Deputy Secretary-General to succeed [[Isis Gay]].
