Sylra Gemlace - Expert Jeweler
A stone never lies. But it does take finesse to get it to speak.
Name: Sylra Gemlace
Race: Elf
Class/Role: Jeweler / Appraiser
Appearance: Sylra is ageless in that stately elven way, with high cheekbones, angular brows, and moonlight-pale skin. Her silvery blond hair is tied into a no-nonsense bun set with gemstone pins. Her clothing is immaculate and metallic-toned—dustless even when mining—always accented with elegant pieces of her own design. She wears a jeweler’s monocle on a silver chain that glows faintly when truth is in question.
Backstory
Trained in the gem-cutting houses of Brightcrown but exiled over an undisclosed scandal, Sylra relocated to Vastwyn Valley to begin again—quietly. Her shop, Whisper in Stone, is part jewelry boutique, part ceremonial chamber, and part emotional archive. She believes in “truth-cutting”—the careful carving of memory and emotion into jewels, sometimes naturally, sometimes through ancient rites. Locals come to her not only to buy rings, but to preserve their grief, joy, or final words.
