Rhazik Skyscale - Chieftain of Zharessin Oasis
Rhazik Skyscale is the bronze dragonborn chieftain of Zharessin Oasis, a calm, unhurried leader who keeps the desert's peace by listening first. He receives every guest seated, and he is far more dangerous than he lets anyone see.
Issue #3 - Into the Ardent Woods: A Missing Woodcarver, an Unfinished Song and a Festival Gone Wrong
This week in the Ardent Woods: a free information broker and a treehouse mystery, a banshee's four-hundred-year-old song for Local Heroes, and a festival-sabotage encounter for Heroes of the Realm.
The Old Smolder - The Pyrohydra
Do not try to kill it. Find the way out first, and count how many of its heads are already awake.
Pandara Hornfall - Escort Captain of Zharessin Oasis
Pandara Hornfall is a brass dragonborn who captains the escort patrols Zharessin Oasis sends through the Endless Expanse's most dangerous stretches. She counts every traveler at dawn and dusk, and she keeps walking beside a column until the last wagon is through.
Jheri Dunebloom - Remedy-Crafter of Zharessin Oasis
Anyone who staggers into Zharessin Oasis half-dead from the sun wakes to the same sound: Jheri Dunebloom talking. The brass dragonborn remedy-crafter keeps her patients chatting, because a slurring word tells her more than a pulse ever will.

Wenna Pellory - The Weight-Taker

Odalys Hollowell - Mediator of The Sprawl
In a market with no walls and no single authority, a quarrel has nowhere to go but the crowd. Odalys Hollowell sits down on a low stool, pours two cups of water, and asks everyone to wait until they are empty. Most disputes in The Sprawl are settled before the second refill.
Quaygnaw - The Wererat
Every sack leaves the ship full. Somewhere between the pier and the cart, something with patient teeth takes its share.
