[b]Name:[/b] Celine.
[b]Gender:[/b] Female.
[b]Age:[/b] She appears to be in her early twenties.
[b]Race:[/b] Woman of the Fields.

[b]Appearance:[/b] A woman of otherworldly beauty which incomprehensibly draws you in. Snowy skin which has never felt the touch of cold steel. Her raven hair is kept long to flow down her shoulders, reaching to her back. An enigmatic look is often present on her face, pale eyes cold and unreadable. While her stature might not be very impressive, standing at a modest height some would consider small. She makes up for her lack of physical prowess with a sharp tongue. 

[b]History:[/b] Born in a small unnamed village somewhere in the country the town was better known for whom it housed. There lived a Godswife with her granddaughter. Celine's parents young and foolish were not ready for the responsibility of a young babe. A sad turn of events, but very common. The girl was raised by her grandmother. Though her life was anything but dull. Her grandmother was a Godswife. Many people came to visit her, they asked questions none but she could answer, she found a cure where there was none and offered protection against evil. Through these people Celine learned much about the world. Aside from her responsibilities as a caretaker the old woman saw to it that her craft was passed on to the next generation, to ensure its survival. 

As the years went by it was Celine whom the people came to visit, her grandmother keeping a watchful eye as her mentor and guide. The old woman had been of considerate age at Celine's birth and recognized her time on this earth was coming to an end but she wanted to ensure her granddaughter was well cared for. Celine now a young woman had caught the eye of a wealthy blacksmith. Her grandmother saw to it that they were married as her last act. The Gods were kind and her marriage was a happy one, though it did not last. A tragic tale which inspired pity in few and fear in many. The reason for her meeting with the Watchful man is unclear and so are her motives for embarking upon this journey. 

[b]Personality:[/b] Intelligent but also cold and detached. Rather emotionless she seldom even smiles. Strong and independent, she doesn't like help from others and does things on her own. This can make her appear distant and untrusting.

[b]Skills:[/b] Celine is a Godswife and the common folk come to her for healing. A Godswife is a wise woman and a practitioner of a primitive folk magic. The people seek her out when life provides them with a challenge that can't be solved by mundane means. She can tell from experience which plants have healing properties and which are deadly. She is skilled in producing both healing smokes and ointments as well as deadly poisons to lace weapons. She creates amulets and fetishes from natural materials to either protect or harm and appeases to the spirits of nature, the sun and the moon for favors. 

The Godswives hold a questionable reputation, both respected and feared. It's hard to tell if this magic really works but when one believes it does you're already halfway there. It carries a bad reputation and this is usually more effective than the real practice, which gave rise to many charlatans. The people believe a practitioner of magic is the same as a brewer of poisons. Witches and Sorcerers are able to brew potions, speak to birds and rats, and bend promises into curses. Magic is all in names and words, agreements and sacrifice. It is not a proper thing to do. 

[b]Possessions:[/b] A dagger, several pouches of healing salves, ointments and powdered incense, a simple peasant dress along with a hooded cloak, a coin purse and an amulet spun from her own hair which is hidden from view. 

[b]Miscellaneous:[/b] None [/center][/hider]
