Claire listens intently to the prior introductions and, believing she is getting a better idea of how this meeting is to proceed, rises to her full height, arms to her sides, hands clasped firmly together in front of her and against her body, and bows low, before making her introduction. If the gesture felt distinctly Chinese, this was because she'd only ever actually observed bowing as part of manners in China.
"I am Claire Adelaide Tunt, from Manhattan. Financial Analyst with my M.A. from Princeton, Heiress, and prospective Invictus hopeful." She very pointedly stresses her final remark, despite its obviousness, to emphasize the importance of tonight for her. And perhaps she didn't bother emphasizing the part where her entire mortal family are worth a billion or more each.
She seeks a bare, polite eye contact from Lady Sage before she sits herself down again.
