![[MiraThornwickPathfinder-v1.png]] # Mira Thornwick _Human Refugee | [[Waterdeep]]_ ## Summary Mother of [[Jorik Thornwick]] and wife of the [[Hellriders|Hellrider]] [[Corwin Thornwick]]. Originally from [[Waterdeep]], not [[Elturel]] — which is why her own name never appeared on the kill-list. When [[Lulu]] came to her with the news of her son's murder, she trusted the hollyphant and publicly accused [[Tarquin Belmont]] of the killing, turning the refugee camp against him. %% ## Now Grieving at [[The Tumbledown]] with the other refugees, clinging to the hope that her husband [[Corwin Thornwick]] survived [[Elturel]]'s fall and can still be saved. [[Rick]] promised her they would find out what happened to the city. ## Appearance A refugee mother worn thin by loss, haunted-eyed but unbroken. ## Personality Devastated but not passive — when [[Lulu]]'s celestial goodness convinced her to trust, she found the nerve to accuse a knight in front of the whole camp. Holds to desperate hope about her husband. Believes in [[Lulu]] utterly. ## Connections **[[Jorik Thornwick]]** — son; murdered by [[Tarquin Belmont]]. **[[Corwin Thornwick]]** — husband; a [[Hellriders|Hellrider]] lost when [[Elturel]] fell. She believes he still lives. **[[Lulu]]** — trusts her completely; the hollyphant broke the news gently and won her testimony. **[[Rick]]** — consoled her and promised the truth about [[Elturel]]. ## Background **The Accusation:** [[Lulu]] persuaded her to wait before seeing her son's body. When [[Lulu]] later declared [[Tarquin Belmont]] a murderer and oath-breaker, [[Mira Thornwick|Mira]] stepped out of his own tent and accused him publicly — the moment the camp turned. %%
