Elara Windgrove - Herbology

Elara grew up in a small village near an ancient forest, where she developed a deep love for nature. Her mother was a healer who used plants in her remedies, and Elara quickly surpassed her in skill and knowledge. After studying in the city and gaining renown for her expertise, she returned to her roots to establish a laboratory and garden. Elara's ultimate goal is to discover and catalog every magical plant in the world to ensure their conservation and to develop alchemical solutions for ailments. Her dedication to her work is driven by a fear of losing the natural world to industrialization and ignorance.

A plain-looking woman in her mid-forties with auburn hair tied in a practical bun, green eyes that sparkle with curiosity, and simple, earth-toned clothing adorned with various pouches and vials.

Elara is incredibly intelligent and curious, constantly seeking knowledge about plants and their magical properties. She is compassionate and patient, but can be absent-minded and overly focused on her research, often losing track of time and neglecting social niceties.
