Ladayev is a street peddler who came to Eversink from Irilevian, around a year ago. She had a little bit of money and spent it to acquire a small cart and a mule, which she uses to set up shop in different areas of the city. She is a very lucky woman, and therefore pretty much always is at just the right spot at the right time to maximize profits. Thieves have not bothered her (too much, there are limits to luck), and in the few areas the City Watch keeps free of street vendors she usually is gone a few minutes before they arrive.
Ladayev is also a priestess of the minor goddess Aefyoase, Lady of Serendipity and Good Fortune. Every time someone had a stroke of good fortune, and smiles, it is a small prayer in her name. Each time a coin finds its way to those in need through pure chance the Lady has bestowed her favor upon them.
The Church of Denari has taken note that the flows of money through the city are moving in strange rivulets, and have been doing so for some time. Fortune favors the bold and those in need, and this does not quite gel with the idea of free commerce...
I see this one as a Happy, Wistful, Devout, and a bit Secretive person who will usually whistle a tune (nearly always a prayer to her Goddess). Her favorite things in life are:
- to feel Aefyoase's winds guide my way
- to see money find its way to those in need
- the smile of someone Aefyoase touched
She has a Morale of 10, and Health of 8; her trust in her goddess helps her remain resolute in the face of any adversary. She has Charm 2, Liar's Tell 1, Servility 2, and Trustworthy 1. Her mythical abilities are not really magic, but mechanically I think the Sorcerer's abilities will do: Corruption 2, Forgotten Lore 1, and Prophecy 4 - she literally reads the flow of money, but also other seemingly random events. Only the movement of swans eludes her, for some reason. Her Spheres affect Mental, and are Money and Serendipity. Her Allies are the Commoners and Outlanders, but the Church of Denari is obviously quite the opposite. Finally, her signature gear:
A cart filled with an absolutely random selection of goods, that someone close by certainly needs.
Colorful clothing.
A belt with the symbols of Aefyoase hidden on the buckle.
A face that is always smiling, but that luckily people find hard to describe when the wrong person asks.
A mule called Alfonse.
And here is her sheet.
