Bookwyrm Treasure Trove Leadership

Winry N'vaal, The Bookwyrm

Soft spoken and weak in timber, Winry welcomes every soul with the warmth of a well loved library and the quiet mystery of an unread tome. Draped in gentle smiles and whispered secrets, she has an uncanny gift for seeing the truths others bury between the lines.
Whether you seek quiet comfort, clever wit, or a moment to lose yourself in stories both spoken and unspoken, Winry offers sanctuary beneath candlelight. They say that if you know the right question to ask, she'll reveal more than a tale... though some chapters are reserved only for those willing to earn her trust.

Kiko Echostar, Manager

A dubious and beribboned little creature getting up to mischief.

Ellona Andrivari, Expedition Leader

While not an avid book reader or appreciator this soft eared two hundred and twenty ponz of a lagomorph will happily, exuberantly, cheerfully dive into the deepest and darkest all in service to bringing some books or other collectibles home. Sounds crazy right? Well.Crazy isn't really about winning wars or conquering nations, it is about boxing the stars and the heavens and fate. Crazy is smiling at overwhelming odds and starting to swing regardless, it is about making your enemies shit their pants and cry because you are already here and running away sounds tiring. Crazy is about wading into a gunfight with your fists and then winning. Crazy has no regrets, it's that cheering enduring presence to stand tall and meet the next challenge fist raised in foolish defiance no matter the odds.The shops adrenaline junky will forever be the bulwark between the worlds dark depths and those who seek to shed a little light upon them. So rest assured, this six fulm snugglebug of a psychopath who is fully intent on seeing what new friends she can make today is precisely that righteous force of blissful, ignorant, cheerful violence and in the right hands, it is exactly the crazy solution you never knew you needed.

Gaius N'vaal, The Bodega Cat

Some men inherit names. Gaius inherited belief. Born from Thavnairian fire and shaped by generations of stories, he is equal parts merchant, myth, and mischief: a gilded wanderer with jeweled ears, a sharp smile, and a talent for being exactly where rumor begins to ripen. Cheeky, refined, and dangerously certain of himself, he moves through courts, ports, ruins, and rumors with the ease of a merchant prince and the appetite of a living legend.

Meet the staff!

Ezzie Wingrave, Shop Staff

There are some souls who seem to have been born with roots already tangled around their hearts. Ezzie is one of them. Born beneath the green boughs of Gridania, she grew up with dirt beneath her fingernails, flowers tucked behind her ears and the Shroud's quiet songs woven in her soul. Though she traded her import business for a quieter life, Ezzie is rarely truly still. There are always herbs to gather, her children to fuss over and her family to accompany her.

Xavier Wingrave, Shop Staff

Xavier Wingrave, an Ala Mhigan Monk mentor for the Fist of Rhalgr, who also happens to be a romance novel enthusiast! Feel free to ask him for any and all romance suggestions!

Sophia Bellatrix, shop staff

A Sharlayan trained healer and scholar, Sophia is also a veteran of the Dragonsong War and the Fields of Carteneau. Now a wandering teacher, Sophia passes on her magical knowledge to this who she sees as worth the effort through their prospective students' will and determination. A master of healing with a keen interest in Nymian Fae magicks, she is also an avid reader. Never is she seen without some tome in hand. Whether it is fiction, romance, scholarly, or just straight up "trashy," she has a passion for books that is hard to match.
