Jornyra is an adventurer and follower of Lord Robilar. After his disappearance, she later becomes the headwoman of Furzehill.

Description

[edit | edit source]

Jornyra was once one of Robilar's followers but retired after marrying a local man.[1]

Personality

[edit | edit source]

"Unsurprisingly, Jornyra is suspicious of outsiders, especially those asking about Robilar's stronghold. Though slow to trust, she is good-hearted and generous. However, one should not mistake her kind nature for weakness. Though past her prime, she still wields Wightbane with lethal skill and reacts with the ferocity of a mother-bear if her two grown-up daughters or her six grandchildren are threatened."[1]

Possessions

[edit | edit source]

Wightbane, a magical axe—given to Jornyra as a wedding present by Lord Robilar.[1]

Relationships

[edit | edit source]

"Jornyra's husband was killed nearly ten years ago [c. 588 CY] by a Dyverese gloryseeker."[1]

Rumors and legends

[edit | edit source]

"Since Robilar's betrayal though, the axe and her connection to the traitor lord have been the bane of Jornyra's life. Many outsiders assumed that since she was once in Robilar's employ, Jornyra must still be in league with him. Others assume that she knows the secrets of the dungeons beneath the ruin (she claims not to). Still others come to wrest Wightbane from her, for gold or glory. Skill and the help of her neighbours have seen off all of these threats, but not without great cost."[1]
