Onora, Piscum Character in Sesteer | World Anvil

Onora, Piscum

Sheriff Onora Piscum

Onora is a no-nonsense country girl and rarely thinks about the world beyond her small town. The half-elf maintains her position with a keen attention to detail and appreciates thoroughness in others. She wants to do right by her community, but usually feels too overwhelmed and underequipped to manage most problems. As a result, she believes all nobles are opportunistic, thieving, and out of touch.

Personal history

The hardscrabble Village of Stachys is near the Betony Estate and historically enjoyed the protection of that noble family. However, since the estate has languished in receivership for a decade, its population has dwindled and infrastructure quietly collapsed. Its residents are mostly commoners whose families have farmed the surrounding land for centuries, and once it became clear that the nobles had abandoned them, they portioned out the town’s administrative duties to residents. Many such duties have fallen to Onora Piscum, the town’s honorary tribune­—its mayor and sheriff. She followed in the footsteps of her husband, Royen, the town’s previous tribune, and Allis Betony , the estate’s last heir. Onora is a competent if taciturn woman and a good administrator, though she wishes she could return to her previous life as the proprietor of her public house, the Wolf’s Whisker. She and most of the commoners in Stachys dislike the Lotheeds and nobles in general, whose decadence and incompetence they blame for the county’s declining fortune.   A commoner both uncomfortable and unwelcome in the noble halls of the palace, Onora fell into the job of tribune of Stachys after the death of the hereditary tribune, Allis Betony, 10 years ago and her husband, the acting tribune, 5 years later.   With the return of a Betony heir, she now functions as the town's Sherriff, while Idra Pinu handles all other mayor duties per the request from Idra Pinu .
