Seroni, High Elf Trader, hd 7

Seroni of Onhir (hd 7) is a cold-hearted female Elf trader who plies the ancient roadways of Altanis.

She had dealings with Oriax the Goat, the Horned Wizard, bringing him preserved foodstuffs and manufactured goods from Ahyf and Kren's Cairn, returning north with a harvest of slave girls, wives for the men of Krens' Cairn and others for the slave market at Ahyf. Seroni avoids the southern Ghinarian Hills, infested as they were with Yusan's brigands and evil folk who prefer to take rather than buy. Seroni has a well furnished villa in Ahyf town with human and halfling servants, mostly slaves. Seroni has a bitter rivalry with fellow slaver Rolth, a mighty-thewed Altanian barbarian who was once her lieutenant and lover, before it's said they had a falling out when she found him in bed with an Airshark serving girl or three.

Lady Barbara 'Babs' d'Ashe (Noble > Rogue-2)

The beautiful d'Ashe family heiress and widow to the slaver Elder Kosvin sadly slain by Sarene's men in M3 44447 during the Shieldbiter takeover. Although the d'Ashe villa was looted and occupied, she was able to salvage some of the d'Ashe family fortune, a bag of fine jewelry, and soon sought solace in the arms of Rolth the Slaver. When Rolth's villa was looted in turn during the Ahyf slave rebellion of 13/8/44447, Lady Barbara was in her bath when the vengeful mob set upon her. She fled naked into the Ahyf sewers, and had not been seen since until 18/7/47 when rescued from the Undercity Black Market darakul slave block by Maglor the Elf. Awfully grateful. Achieved return of the D'Ashe villa taken by Sarene the Pirate in return for providing it as a base to Maglor's Little Birds.

Lady Beverly is one of the few remaining true Nobles in Ahyf following the slaughter of the Elders and exile of their families. As such she has a natural affinity with the Golden Queen Malenn of Mitra, and as a lady of the court the two are gradually becoming friends.

AIRSHARK INN 30/1/47: Following the death of Gorok Halfogre, Ahyf's government seized the Airshark Inn. It is now run by Hognun, Warlord Briaron's phlegmatic cousin. He maintains good discipline among the girls with his switch.

Linda Gordon hd 4

4444 BCCC arrival Linda Gordon (hd 4) was a former captive of the mad wizard Oriax. Linda is seeking a way back to her home in Edwardian London, England in the year 1910, where she was housemaid & assistant to the eccentric scientist Professor Hugo Potsmeyer before an accident with the Transdimensional Interface Loop Inductor (TILI). Linda was nearly sold to the sinister Jayzeel in the Undercity Black Market 12/1/47 when Gorok tired of her. After Gorok's demise Hognun made her a Coin Girl, until she bought her way back inside the Inn 17/8/47 with gold from Hakeem.

Beverly, Coin Girl hd 10

Beverly McFadden, ex slave of Kogor, Coin Girl Steward of Ahyf (hd 10)
See HERE
Former ship's doctor on the space cruiser USNC 'Enterprise' in the Earth Year 2287, until seized from her cabin by Oriax. Oldest & cheapest of the 12 naked slavegirls brought by three Orcs to Selatine 16/11/4445, after Hakeem killed their leader. This red-haired slave wench was bought by Aldo as another serving girl for the Redeye Inn, mostly to attend to the kitchen, where she proved an indifferent chef, even burning the porridge - spurring even the normally phlegmatic Aldo to engage in a little light spanking of her posterior.
As of 1/12/4445 Aldo had taken her off kitchen duties and assigned her to entertain high-spending guests, selling her 2/12 to the dwarf adventurer Kogor for 100gp and making a tidy profit on the deal. Kogor keeps her on a tight leash. K brand on right thigh from 3/12/4445
"She may not be a great cook, but she has other attractions... I like a more experienced girl. And she can always carry a torch." - Kogor of Kolda

Hakeem follows Garnoth down a dark passage to a room where two thuggish looking men sit playing dice. Garnoth nods to them, and they stand up, following you as Garnoth opens a door in the far wall and leads you into a cell block, a dozen cells, most containing a human or humanoid, all naked, most showing battle scars.
Smon: Towards the far end a hulking half-ogre waits beside one of the cells, holding a key-ring.
Smon: Gorok Half-Ogre looks Hakeem over. "You want to see the new one?"
chris107: "Aye please."
Smon: Hakeem passes by cells containing a wild-eyed shaggy-haired Tharbrian man, a heavy-set tusked orc, a buxom Skandik valkyrie (Helga), and comes up to Gorok as he turns the lock and opens the cell door.
Smon: "There, the Wood Nymph."
