Editing Campaign:Conquering of Canals/Melancholy (section)

=== Appearance ===
Melancholy is an older woman, standing at 5'4 and in her late forties.  Once she was absolutely lovely, but the years of being a mother and a shopkeep were hard on her, even if they were happy years, leaving her just pretty.  Her long red hair is now streaked with silvery gray and her face is lined with delicate wrinkles from life and age.  However, over the last several months, she has been very focused on improving herself.  She has always been graceful and quick, but now she is hale and strong again as well, her body finely toned under a well-made buff jacket.  Mel seems like a pleasant woman, especially with her grin and the gentleness in her blue eyes.

She'd almost look normal, if it weren't for the brilliantly gold clasp at the end of her braided hair, with a yellow-green stone glittering from it.
