Cailleach Fern

Winter and the wilderness

Cailleach Fern, known as Rime, is a hexelf druid whose childhood home was destroyed by war. The wilderness that raised her afterward left winter and solitude at the center of her life. Her frostspeaking reflects the nature she serves: patient and severe, with a force that becomes difficult to ignore when she is provoked. She carries that cold presence with her regardless of the season, protecting balance with calm purpose rather than frequent speech.^[1][2]
