Background

Born into the prestigious House Dankil, which governs the Barony of Dankil, Mystnia grew up amidst the dual influences of craftsmanship and faith. The family’s devotion to Saint Molina, the dwarven Saint of craftsmen, instilled in her a reverence for hard work and healing. Mystnia chose the path of a healer, blending her family’s skills in craftsmanship with her passion for helping others. Her expertise grew through years of service, treating both warriors in the heat of battle and civilians in the aftermath of tragedy. Mystnia ventured to Duirt seeking to broaden her reach and bring aid to a city brimming with both opportunity and strife.

Weapons

• Crafted Warhammer: A finely forged warhammer with intricate carvings, gifted to her by her family. Though primarily a healer, Mystnia is trained in combat and wields the hammer as a symbol of both her faith and her readiness to defend.

• Healer’s Dagger: A small, practical blade designed for cutting herbs and preparing poultices, but also sharp enough for defense if needed.
