Cleric, Life Domain
Tansy Copper-Salve
Species
Halfling
Appearance
A sturdy halfling with a broad, warm face, thick curly brown hair dusted permanently with grey ash, and intelligent amber eyes that seem to measure pulse, posture, and pain before they measure a person. Her hands are square-fingered and scarred, with pale chemical burns along two knuckles and a crescent cut across one thumb. She moves with the brisk, grounded rhythm of someone accustomed to carrying injured people through tunnels, never quite hurrying but never wasting a step. Her smile is soft enough to reassure a feverish child, while her stare can make an armed enforcer suddenly aware of every loose nail in the room. The unexpected contradiction is that she smells faintly of honey and clean wool despite spending most of her life among soot, blood, and industrial fumes.
“Low, brisk, and reassuring, with a soft rural halfling lilt that becomes clipped and exact when she is recording evidence. She rarely raises her voice.”

Distinguishing Features
Grey ash permanently threaded through her curly brown hair
A copper crescent scar across her left thumb
Amber eyes that sharpen noticeably when examining injuries
A tiny brass bell sewn inside her apron, used to signal that a patient has survived surgery
A faint chemical burn pattern on her right forearm resembling branching roots
Voice
“A calm contralto with a warm rasp, like a kettle beginning to sing over a banked coal fire. She sounds patient even when delivering an ultimatum.”
Clothing
A clean, well-mended canvas medical apron over a practical traveler's tunic, with sleeves permanently rolled to the elbows. Her deep utility pockets contain linen strips, bone needles, cooling salts, bitter tea leaves, charcoal tablets, and tiny glass phials. Her boots are soft-soled for quiet movement and reinforced with copper toe caps.
Body Language
Tansy leans toward pain without flinching, keeps her shoulders square when threatened, and taps two fingers against her wrist while thinking. When furious, she becomes perfectly still except for the careful tightening of her apron strings.
