A slim woman, of around 50, though it seems she has kept her youthful beauty and only shows hints of gray in her long brown hair. She is a ritualist by trade, and a talented one at that. She sirved the Kiris family for many years and helped piece together the library that once stood in the city of Kiris Dahn.Wise, kind and logical, she understands the weight of any situation right away and never deems it necessary to speculate that witch is least likely to happen. She is known to keep a tower 5 miles the West and 10 miles South of the Ogrefist hills in the Nentir Vale, and lives there whilst studying the world's mysteries.
Anyone looking for information or training in arcane formulas and rituals would do well seek her advice.

Tyristys, the Brass Dragon
This impetuous dragon took up residence underground near Gorizbadd's [formerly Kiris Dahn] hot springs and currently possesses the slaying stone. She's especially lazy and leaves her den only to hunt. Though she's quick to enter a conversation with the adventurers, she's not that attentive.Tyristys would like to get rid of the stone. It's too big of a responsibility for a dragon that would rather just sleep comfortably.
