Steris was raised in Lord Harms household, with Lord and Lady Harms. Steris’s parents were not emotionally close. Lord Harms remarked that Steris is much like her mother{{book ref|mb4|4}}. Steris was aware of Lord Harms’s extra-marital affairs and views them as normal, to the point where she wrote a clause for affairs into her original marriage contract{{book ref|mb4|2}}.
===Alloy of Law===
Steris is introduced early in Alloy of Law, when she makes a visit to the Ladrian mansion to discuss arranging an engagement between herself and Wax{{book ref|mb4|2}}. This was the first time Steris and Wax had met in person, although they had been exchanging letters regarding a house union for several months. Steris presented Wax with a “thorough” document of at least 20 pages that outlined each stage of their courtship and engagement, as well as the terms of their eventual marriage, an arrangement that Wax agreed to. In this scene Steris also met [[Wayne]], in the guise of Wax’s fictional Uncle Maskil.
Steris and Wax attended the [[Yomen]]-Ostlin wedding as a couple a few days after their first meeting, their first official appearance together{{book ref|mb4|4}}. As they entered the party, Steris educated Wax on how Elendel society revolved around gatherings like it, and how invitations were used almost as weapons. Steris also informed Wax that she would no longer respond negatively to his “ignorant frontiersman” act. Despite this statement, she did become frustrated with his coarse table talk and leave their group for a moment. As a result, she was in the bathroom when the [[Vanishers]] attacked the party. Steris and Marasi were the kidnapping targets of the attack{{book ref|mb4|5}}, and while Wax was able to rescue Marasi, Steris was ultimately taken{{book ref|mb4|6}}. Lord Harms was devastated at the loss of his only (legitimate) daughter, and offered to bankroll Wax’s efforts to recover her{{book ref|mb4|7}}. The next day, Wax coaxs Marasi into revealing that she and Steris are actually half-sisters, rather than cousins as they were first introduced.
