Appearance:

Xuriel is a tall, lanky gnome with a wild head of fiery red hair and a pointed nose. Her skin is pale and her face is creased with wrinkles, but her eyes are sharp and full of life. She wears a patchwork coat of fabrics of many different colors and textures, and she often wears a pair of ancient leather boots on her feet.

Interaction:

Xuriel is initially very unfriendly and gruff, but once you get to know her, she warms up and reveals a surprisingly cheerful personality. She is often found in the local tavern, telling stories to the other patrons. She is always willing to trade goods for stories and will quickly offer a good price for something interesting. She is not so keen to barter or haggle, however.

Background:

Xuriel has been living in Crowthorne for a long time. She has seen a lot over the years and is always ready to share a tale or two about the city. She is a bit of a recluse, preferring to stay out of other people’s business. She does not trust outsiders easily, but she has a soft spot for adventurers.

Combat / Skills:

Xuriel is a skilled alchemist and an expert in potions, tinctures, and elixirs. She is also a master of disguise and can often be found wandering the city in different guises. She is a cunning negotiator and she often manages to get the best deals for herself and her customers. She is also an excellent cook, and her specialty is spicy stew.
