Xanda Pennywell

Xanda Pennywell was a weaver from the hamlet of Liam's Hold who sold her textiles via her husband in the city of Baldur's Gate in the mid-to-late 14 century DR.

Description
Xanda Pennywell was a slender brown-haired woman with elven features and skillfully nimble fingers that masterfully worked the finest silks and satins, weaving beautiful garments. Xanda's craved and engraved work table was always littered with copious sheets of various dress sketches and designs.

Possessions
Dwenthor's cape of bravery was an enchanted cloak gifted to Xanda by her past lover to protect her from harsh Sword Coast winters. After the lover's departure, she kept the magic cape in case she ever needed coin.

History
Sometime before 1372 DR, Xanda was courted by a Cormyrean War Wizard, Dwenthor of the Winds, who dwelt in a humble stone cottage in the pastures of Liam's Hold. Eventually, Xanda was swayed by the older man and they engaged in a romantic relationship that was cut shirt by a group of mercenaries who came to return Dwenthor to the War Wizards' service. It was revealed that Dwenthor was a deserter and a coward. After his departure, he's never returned to Liam's Hold, and eventually, Xanda married a honest merchant man - Michael Pennywell.

By 1372 DR, Xanda's and her husband's business was blossoming and kept the couple busy. Xanda spent her days weaving and sowing garments while her husband, Michael Pennywell, sold their goods in the city of Baldur's Gate. With a busy work schedule and in high demand, Xanda did not accept new orders as she had already accumulated over two months' worth of work ahead of her. Xanda's orders included drapery, embroidery, weaved rugs, tablecloths, seat covers, or other mundane cloth items of intricate design. Her exercise, however, laid in creating capes and shawls. In 1372 DR, the young half-elf's husband set out to the annual cloth market in Baldur's Gate. The husband spent over two months in the Gate, away from Liam's Hold, and was two weeks late with his return.
