Maralie Fiddlebender

Maralie Fiddlebender was a gnome who helped her uncle, Oswald, with his airship in the late 13 and early 14 centuries DR.

She resided in Kuldahar with her uncle, Oswald, where he she helped him with his potions, spells and airship. She mentioned that to a group of adventurers that she was made to wear a roped as a harness, so that she was safe on the ship. Her uncle noted in his spellbook that Maralie gave him invaluable assistance.

Personality
Maralie was a naïve, young gnomish girl, who believed many of the crazy stories Oswald would tell her about. She was very small, and thought it may be due to the constant air pressure she is exposed to on her travels (another of her uncle's stories). Her uncle also told her that her head was too small for her age. Being clumsy, Maralie tried to fit her head in everything, such as little jars.

She later became independent, travelled around Faerûn and wrote a book.

History
She started life in Kuldahar, where she lived with her uncle, who was known for piloting (and crashing) a flying ship. After the yuan-ti started to attack Kuldahar, she moved to Targos with her uncle and the other villagers.

She left the comforts of her home to journey towards Deepingdale, the origin of Kuldahar's archdruid, Iselore. Iselore told his fellow druids that he needed a student to replace him; Maralie told herself that this was the reason she left.

Later in life, she wrote an illustrated book detailing the events which revolved around the goblin uprising in Northwest Faerûn, known as the Legion of the Chimera. The book was written in Mirabar, beside a fire.
