Clarshee Taraghe

Clarshee Taraghe was the owner and operator of the Moonwyvern Inn on the Everlund Pass in Luruar, circa the Year of Wild Magic, 1372 DR.

Description
By most common standards, Clarshee was not young&hellip;or pretty.

Personality
Clarshee was a curmudgeonly old woman who was fiercely independent and not afraid to get her hands dirty. She maintained an almost constant stream of mumbled complaints between occasional outbursts of colorful but resigned outrage. She was charitable toward those she liked and often gave aid, credit, shelter, or nursing care to people in desperate need. She believed in keeping everyone's secrets and avoided gossip or pontificating.

Abilities
Clarshee was a sorceress of moderate skill with good concentration and a thorough knowledge of her inn and its surroundings. She could run much faster than her appearance indicated. She was proficient with a crossbow, and could be dangerous with an axe, sledgehammer, pastry knife, or tar brush. The sweet blackberry–scented candles that lit the inn at night were handmade by her.

Possessions
In addition to the Moonwyvern Inn, she owned a crossbow, a +2 dagger, a +1 ring of protection, three cure light wounds potions, and two potions of cure critical wounds. She could command a shield guardian that she kept hidden in a closet, and she had a chest of fourteen crawling claws in the cellar that she could herd because they hated pickle juice.

Relationships
Clarshee was like a den mother to many of her regular patrons, regardless which side of the law they were on at any given time. Most simply adored her and would leap to her defense or aid if she needed it. Her two athach assistants, Beelbraeth and Horokh, were also fervently loyal to her.

Rumors & Legends
Under Clarshee Taraghe's care, the Moonwyvern Inn became somewhat less rowdy and lawless, which led some gossipmongers to speculate that she was a Harper. While she agreed with many of the goals of that semi-secret organization, she was not a member or an agent.
