Millie Churlgo

Millie Churlgo was the matriarch of the family that produced the infamous Churlgo Cheese in the Eastern Farmlands of Daggerford circa 1372 DR.

Description
Millie Churlgo had a soft pleasant voice and friendly demeanor. Even though a tough business woman, she was approachable and a pleasant conversationalist. She had wavy long black hair, decorated with black beret. She wore a bright blue coat.

She was used to passerby merchants and tourists paying visit to the family farm. Millie happily greeted the visitors and offered them samples of fresh Churlgo Cheese.

Relationships
Millie often came to head butting with her disgruntled son Porto Churlgo who wanted the family to produce grains and beef cattle rather than cheese, with many local cheese-making competitors.

History
Churlgo were cheese-makers for several generations, starting with Millie Churlgo's great great grandfather, Garrith Churlgo, who switched from growing grains to making dairy products back when the farm was operating out of the Dalelands. Millie Churlgo was the woman in control of the family cheese-making business. Under her leadership, Churlgo Cheese found a distributor in Gillian's Hill who sold the halflings' peculiar product all along the Sword Coast.

Eventually, Millie's cheesy business was targeted by the Iron Throne who started increasing taxes on Churlgo Cheese until the halflings were unable to pay. Yentai, the corrupt Iron Throne agent, was attempting to extort the recipe out of Millie Churlgo; however, she never budged. Yentai attempted to crack the cheese recipe himself, but Millie moved the family enterprise to the Eastern Farmlands of Daggerford. Before she left, however, the halfling matriarch left Yentai a parting gift, an altered Churlgo Cheese recipe. The extortionist cooked up a batch of the cheese and served it to the Iron Throne dignitaries without tasting it first. The scandal that ensued came to be known as the "Suzail Cheese Incident."

Sometime circa 1372 DR, the family prospered in the new region. However, the family's reputation started to deteriorate. The cheese quality was suffering as the farm faced financial strains; Churlgos started using lower quality ingredients for their product. The family operations came under assault from constant bandit attacks on Churlgo Cheese led by Yentai of the Iron Throne, who followed the family from the Dalelands to Daggerford.

Millie's luck turned around when the Hero of Daggerford offered to join her disgruntled son Porto Churlgo in transporting a shipment of Churlgo Cheese to Gillian's Hill. On the road, the ox-pulled cheese cart was ambushed by a group of thugs. They were confused by the presence of an armed guard. After the fight, the Hero found a note from Yentai that instructed the bandits to escort the shipment to Gillian's Hill. When the cheese reached the hamlet, Sejellus Krimp, the cheese distributor, revealed that the cheese shipments had been delivered by random people instead of the halflings, including the shipments that were thought lost in bandit raids. Eventually, it was revealed that Porto Churlgo worked with Yentai, who opened up a store in Gillian's Hill and was behind the stolen cheese shipments. The agent of the Iron Throne received shipments from Porto and simply sold them to Sejellus as if nothing was out of order, while Millie's farm suffered from the lost coin.
