Dhalia Elmstone

Overview
Chief of Meadowbrook and spiritual leader of the Awoken. Dhalia Elmstone was among the first to wake up after leaving the mists surrounding Ravenloft. After losing several companions to the wilds of the Eastern Forest, she decided it best to form a village to protect the increasing number of Sleepwalkers.

Like all of the Awoken, Dhalia worships the Eternal Blossom. She works tirelessly to organize efforts and care for the plant. As spiritual leader, she sleeps beneath the Blossom on nights during the full bloom to receive blessings of knowledge and guidance.

After waking to the scent of the Blossom, her now-husband Trent Treebrush was one of the first Sleepwalkers she rescued. Together they had a daughter, Marigold Elmstone who acts very much the opposite of her mother.

Description
Dressed in white cloth robes with small flowers and natural patterning. Her feet are wrapped in wooden sandals. Two long braids frame her face, formed of her platinum blonde hair.

She speaks with a bright, welcoming tone, but often forgets what she was saying while in the midst of a sentence. A free spirit at heart, her attention competes with her memory as her most fleeting characteristic.

Goals and Fears
Dhalia believes the Eternal Blossom to be a benevolent entity. She works to care for the plant and hopes one day to be able to propagate the Blossom. The village of Meadowbrook has little in the form of defense, so the added numbers by rescuing Sleepwalkers helps to pad their population.
