Astrid Mossly is a gifted young high elf with a natural talent for creating effective and safe medicines. She is the owner of the Silver Owl, a well-respected apothecary located in the heart of the bustling city of Malmborg. The shop is famous for its high-quality remedies and potions that are widely sought after by people from all walks of life. Astrid inherited her love for herbalism from her mother, a beautiful high elf who came to Kalamar and married a mighty warrior. Unfortunately, her mother passed away shortly after giving birth to Astrid, leaving her father to raise her alone. Despite the challenges of being a single father, he raised Astrid with all the love and care he could give.
Astrid's father was a fierce warrior who spent many years fighting rebels and bandits in Kalamar. When he finally returned home, he was not the same man. His mind had been shattered from all the killing and the mourning over his wife's death. Astrid, who had grown up watching her father struggle with his demons, dedicated her life to healing him using her herbalism skills. Though she managed to make some progress, her father remains deeply traumatized and spends most of his days lost in his own thoughts.
Despite the challenges she has faced in life, Astrid remains a strong and resilient woman. She is well-respected in the city of Malmborg for her knowledge of herbs and potions, and people often come to her for help with a wide range of ailments. The Silver Owl also features a small garden where Astrid grows many of the herbs and plants used in her remedies, ensuring their quality and freshness. Although Astrid generally keeps to herself, she is considered a beauty among all the rugged people in the city of Malmborg. Her sharp wit and no-nonsense attitude have earned her the respect of many, and her skills as an apothecary have made her one of the most sought-after healers in all of Kalamar.
