Description: A woman with thick toned arms and a paunchy gut. She wears a shirt and pants that are bristling with pockets overflowing with maps, compasses, and other navigational equipment. Her silver hair is drawn into a tight pony tail with a dagger scrunchie. She wears round tiny glasses practically rammed into her face.

Personality: Her voice, at times compared to that of a Nymph, lambasts those who consider themselves "civilized" with snide, belittling remarks; the subtle growl she speaks with growing louder in doing so, one can find it most pronounced, despite the otherwise natural purity of her tone. Her respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to her, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, she tolerates in varying degrees. Though less modest and more hasty in her reactions to snap at those who irritate her, Cora is combative with any and all who dare try her patience in the slightest.

History: Her druidic talent manifested at a young age. Aiming to upstage a rival house, her parents had her trained. Ostracized due to the druidic powers of her oldest sister, she and her siblings struck out on their own. In the process these unassuming Halflings became a terror of the countryside. She now has a substantial network of resources ranging from contacts to ships to peers.
