Clara Feygarden

Bookseller
  • Clara Feygarden: Slightly shorter than Leopold, Clara has a soft, rosy-cheeked face, with silver curls tucked under a knitted cap. She’s almost always in a flour-dusted apron, having just come from baking her latest batch of muffins or crumpets. Her keen blue eyes sparkle with curiosity and mischief. Clara is slightly more grounded, interrupting Leopold with gentle nudges when he rambles, offering tea and pastries with the soft but firm insistence of someone who won’t take no for an answer.
  • They are incredibly knowledgeable about arcane lore, history, magical theory, and forgotten languages, but their eagerness to help often means visitors end up staying far longer than intended.
  • “Have Some Tea!” Clara offers tea and pastries within the first five minutes of meeting anyone. Refusing is considered an affront (though she’ll insist anyway).
  • “Oh, you can’t research on an empty stomach, dear. Sit down, have a muffin.”
