Species
Human
Appearance
Miela is a young human woman with a broad, capable face, a slightly crooked smile, and the compact strength of someone accustomed to carrying water, firewood, and sleeping children. She stands with most of her weight on the balls of her feet, as if a sudden emergency might begin at any moment. Her hands are unusually steady, even when the rest of her body trembles. She watches doorways, staircases, and the hands of strangers before she looks at their faces. Her belly is visibly pregnant, but she moves with surprising quietness and speed. The unexpected contradiction is that her manner is soft and almost maternal while her gaze can become as cold and appraising as a butcher judging a knife.
“Low, clear, and gently accented, with soft rounded vowels. She speaks quickly when discussing medicine and very slowly when someone is lying to her.”

Distinguishing Features
A tiny crescent-shaped birthmark beneath her left collarbone that resembles a closed eyelid.
Always carries three lengths of colored thread around her wrist, each representing a patient she promised to revisit.
Her left thumb is permanently stained green from a medicinal moss that will not wash away.
She smiles at infants and horses but rarely smiles at adults.
When she stands still, she rocks almost imperceptibly from heel to toe, like someone listening for a distant heartbeat.
Voice
“A warm contralto with a dry edge, like honey poured over a blade. When she prays, her voice becomes almost inaudible, yet everyone nearby instinctively leans closer.”
Clothing
Layered brown and green wool, a faded blue linen dress, thick stockings, soft leather boots, and a waxed canvas apron marked with old herbal stains. She wears a copper ring on a cord around her neck and keeps a folded strip of expensive crimson silk hidden inside one sleeve.
Body Language
Miela leans slightly forward when someone is speaking, but her feet remain angled toward the nearest exit. When angered, she becomes very still and folds her hands over the handle of her crook. When frightened, she starts tidying nearby objects into precise rows.
