# Mira Thorne

## Appearance

A stout halfling woman in her early 40s with rosy cheeks, flour-dusted hands (she bakes when stressed), and kind brown eyes permanently crinkled from smiling. She wears practical healer's robes over a homespun dress and keeps bandages, herbs, and snacks in the many pockets of her apron.

## Personality

- **Nurturing** — mothers everyone within range, including the party
- **Fierce when provoked** — her protective instinct overrides her gentle nature if children or the helpless are threatened
- **Gossip** — knows everyone's business in Eastmarch; a valuable source of rumors
- **Unflappable** — has seen too much death and illness to be rattled by much

## Role in Campaign

- Arc 1, Hook 3: Reports the poisoned well and missing child
- Source of local rumors (roll 1d6 on the [[Eastmarch#Rumors Table (d6)|Eastmarch Rumors Table]])
- After Hook 3 resolved: free healing (basic) and discounted potions for the party

## Stat Block

- **HP:** 27 | **AC:** 13 | **Spellcasting:** Cleric 4 (DC 13, +5)

## Secrets

- Her husband died in the same plague that killed [[Marshal Aldren Voss|Marshal Voss's]] wife. She and Voss have never acknowledged their shared grief — they just make sure the other is okay.
- She trained briefly at a temple in [[Valhold]] but left because "the high priestesses were too busy praying to actually heal anybody."
- She knows the marshes east of town hide a smuggler's route into [[Kethra]]. If the party needs to cross the border quietly, she can draw them a map.
