Ayniya's Imbeddables

Ayniya Crafyien

Short for a Sylvan, Ayniya Crafyien's pensive expression and quiet demeanor give the impression that she may be more at home in a sunlit forest glade than here in a busy port town.  Dressed in a simple, pale green gown beneath a leather work apron, and with only a couple stray locks of chestnut hair escaping from beneath an ivory kerchief, she is the very picture of a pragmatic artisan whose primary focus is her craft.

Ayniya glances up from her workbench. "I have as wide a selection of woods as any maker of wands that I know of, plus I carve pendants and talismans besides," she says, flashing a quick smile which momentarily reveals the beauty hidden behind her normally pensive expression.

"Depending on the particular piece of wood, I can usually get an amulet or pendant from the unworked portion of wood that's clamped in in the vise when I'm shaping a rod or wand," comments Ayniya without looking up from her work.
