| '''Jess''' is a serving girl at '''The One-Eyed Cat''' tavern (Location 15) and '''The Green Man Inn''' (Location 14) in [[Kendall Keep]].
| |
| | |
| == Description ==
| |
| | |
| A quick-eyed young woman of perhaps nineteen or twenty, with her hair pulled back in a practical braid. Despite her youth, there is a sharpness to her eyes that speaks of hard lessons learned early. Her hands are quick and clever, and she habitually sits with her back to the wall, facing the room.
| |
| | |
| == Background ==
| |
| | |
| Jess's parents were adventurers who ventured into the [[Caves of Chaos]] fifteen years ago and never returned. She was raised by her grandparents, '''[[Greeves]]''' and '''[[Peta]]''', who now work at the Guild House (Location 16).
| |
| | |
| She harbours a deep desire to learn what happened to her parents and has asked the party to bring her any information about their fate.
| |
| | |
| == Role ==
| |
| | |
| Jess serves food and drink at the tavern, but she also has skills beyond waiting tables. She hears much of the gossip that passes through the Keep and is a valuable source of information for those who earn her trust.

| == What Jess Knows ==

| | |
| During [[Session 1]], Jess shared the following information:
| |
| | |
| === Key Figures ===
| |
| * '''[[Devereau]]''' (the Castellan) handles most of the Keep's business and pays bounty for proof of bandits or goblins killed
| |
| * '''[[Lord Macsen]]''' is the ultimate authority but doesn't deal with common sellswords
| |
| * '''[[Father Abercrombie]]''' has been warning about evil in the hills
| |
| | |

| |
| * The '''[[Bee Man]]''', a hermit in the woods, supposedly knows secrets about the forest
| |
| | |
| === Recent Events ===
| |

| == Party Interactions ==
| |
| | |
| === [[Session 1]] ===
