Kestrel Ashgrove
A travelling practitioner of the herb-and-bone half of the hedge craft — what to burn, what to bury, and what to leave at the foot of a hill so that the thing beneath it stays courteous until dawn.

The Herb-and-Bone Practitioner
Kestrel Ashgrove
A travelling practitioner of the herb-and-bone half of the hedge craft — what to burn, what to bury, and what to leave at the foot of a hill so that the thing beneath it stays courteous until dawn.
A short, softly curved young woman in her early twenties, with warm tan skin freckled heavily across the nose and shoulders, wild pale-brown curls escaping every binding, and amber eyes that hold a joke a beat longer than is comfortable. Bone rings sit on three fingers; her cuticles are stained green from the day's cutting.
- Shows affection by
- touch
- In conflict
- teases through tension
- Habits
- sits down closer than necessary and waits to be told otherwise; names the ingredients of a working out loud like a recipe; props her chin on her fist when she has decided to say something direct
