'''Frida, | '''Frida, a painter''', thoroughly enjoys creating masterpieces from her tidy studio in [[Caer Witrin]]. She once painted custom creations for [[adventurers]] if they purchased of one of her blank canvases. | ||
However, late in the [[years|year]] 444 AF, a loud roar alerted citizens of nearby [[Cyrene]] to a horrible tragedy. The peddler delivering new tools and supplies to the artists of Caer Witrin had been mauled by the snow tiger [[Grimlath]]. Although she no longer takes commissions at the request of her clients as a result of this development, she keeps a variety of paintings in stock which she rotates often. Her apprentice, a young man named [[Salai]], both copies paintings and sells [[inks]] for [[tattoos]] and [[runes]]. | |||
==Frida's Wares== | |||
;Nighttime painting of [[Ashtan]] - 19000gp : The Bastion of the North has been captured in this painting beneath a moonless sky full of stars. Glittering lights from the heavens reflect off the waters of [[Lake Balaton]] and the [[Sapphire Ocean]] to softly illuminate the [[city]], which appears peaceful from this distant vantage. A polished wooden frame surrounds the image and bears an oval plaque made of solid gold along the bottom edge. | |||
;Painting of a treetop village at daybreak - 19000gp : The rising sun breaks over the heart of a lush forest in this elaborate painting, casting a golden glow upon the verdant leaves that crown [[Eleusis]]. Weaving amongst each other, the upper branches of the great oaks form pathways among the greenery, leading to natural dwellings patrolled by the shadowy figures of [[dryads]], [[tsol'aa]], and [[treekin]]. With fine brush strokes and vibrant hues, the scenery is rendered with lifelike detail, as though the painting were simply the view from an open window. Completed by a golden frame embossed with an ivy motif, a small plaque along the base bears the title of the work. | |||
;Painting of [[Scarlatti]] and [[Selene]] - 20000gp : The [[Gods|Divine]] figures of Scarlatti and Selene are pictured here, walking hand in hand among the snowy streets of Caer Witrin in commemoration of the Great Bard's gift to the Lady. A shower of snowflakes drifts all about, gleaming like jewels upon doorsteps and rooftops of the surrounding [[:Category:Villages|village]], while a half-dozen magnificent snow leopards pose humbly before the Gods. When viewed from a sharp angle, the outlines of several crystalline [[spiders|arachnids]] are barely visible against the icy backdrop. Completing the painting is a frame of delicate silver embossed with snowflakes, a small plaque along its lower edge bearing the work's title. | |||
