Brigeth Bearfriend (female; D13; Beory)

• owed 2 shares of treasure
• Rotund and jocular, Brigeth is no swooning damsel. She is a homely

dwarven woman of 140 years with tangled red hair, dull hazel eyes, and heavy freckling. Despite this, or perhaps because of it, she leads her region with great success, having no foolish male druids doting on her beauty. She has a broad smile, speaks many languages, and is a superb diplomat. Her hand shake is as strong as a strapping man’s and she is a fierce fighter, preferring a stout bronzewood shillelagh in combat. Always at her side is an old black bear female called Jilal to whom she talks and consults as if it were a human. The old bear seems to be quite opinionated.

• Assistants: 3 Initiates of the 8th Circle

(D10)

• Grove: Bramblewood (M5-98) (Located at the spring where the river flowing to Nesser town rises)

The Archdruid’s grove is secluded in the deep Bramblewood, amidst the ruins of an ancient Beygraf’s summer palace. Only broken remnants of gilded columns of ecru stone jut from the undergrowth of jade ferns and climbing ivy. Near the center of the grove, a circle of broken columns stands upon a pavilion of ecru stone inlaid with peacock mosaics of blue and green glass. Within the circle of columns is a tiled bath built around a spring of exceptional purity. The enchanted spring glows with the aquamarine brilliance of Celene for nine days after the Handmaiden has shown full. It is here that the archdruidess and her coterie walk and hold counsel. The magics cast by the Archduidess, especially those of scrying, are most potent when the pool holds the aquamarine brilliance of Celene within its waters.

Info

• knows that druid ways aren't used as much - cities have more power, druids have less, so they travel less, and fewer are able to do so. Then, to make matters worse, demonic creatures have sometimes slipped in and begun harassing travelers. It's not too common, she thinks, but someone getting attacked shortly after their first expedition is unusual and troubling.
