Description: A well shaped woman just over fifty, she is dressed in earthy colors with a white and green handkerchief worn on her left side. Her white hair is knotted and matted. She is baby faced.

Personality: She is a Ploughman first and foremost. She believes firmly that knowledge should be universal. She spends most of her days drinking in the Inn, the rowdiest and most dangerous establishment in town. There she gambles, wrestles and listens to stories told by travelers.

History: A studious child she never was much for a social life, not because she was unlikable, but because she did not seek it out. Being born in the east, she completed her medical training abroad so as to avoid the war. She returned after the war having achieved medical proficiency.

She is searching for what she claims is her rightful reward.

History: A powerful slaver made him what he is. He couldn't stand his childhood mentor and eventually formed a pact with his mentor's previously failed apprentice to rebel.
