Marrer Owendolyn

Marrer Owendolyn Caitlinne O'Cuimac

Marrer Owendolyn, born Caitlinne O'Cuimac, saved the lands from the Mortlaid Plague and became the first Marrer to walk the world.
She gave birth to children which continued her legacy as a healer, which have remained the most prominent healer family, or Iccaid-Clann, to this day.

Mental characteristics

Education

It is believed that she acquired much her knowledge of healing autodidactically, likely in the role of a local healer.
She is suggested to have had a great interest in the time before the loss of the Heol-Bri, which may also explain her choice of Carredin as a base of operations.
Some believe that she had found a way of harnessing the mystical powers of the place, leading her to perform miracles still not entirely explainable today.
However, it must also be noted that the tellings of these miracles may be biased and could be misleading if interpreted without further context.

Intellectual Characteristics

It is quite apparent that this must have been a woman of keen observance, and a great memory, able to conjecture many different cures and their constituents at will.
Furthermore it can be safely presumed that she was a figure of great social intellect and modesty, with testimonies of patients praising her gentle hand and calming words.

Morality & Philosophy

Marrer Owendolyn is told to have been a woman passionate on the subject of life and how it is worth protecting, no matter in what form it may come.
Even the most irritating, blood-sucking critter or mercilessly ferocious beast would be worth protecting just as much as that of a Frosted Deer or a new-born child.
While these views were not generally appreciated at the time, in more modern days the tales of this kind of mercy and motherliness have struck fertile soil.
It is quite clear that she believed that attempting to save an individual life, no matter how futile it was or how others may suffer from it, was a sacred act that only humankind could perform, and that it is our duty to perform these works.

Known Languages
It is quite likely that she was well-versed in Cribic, however many scholars believe that she had mastered other languages to help her gain insight into the mysterious world of wonders that is medicine.
Since there are no written works to her name it is quite possible that she may have had difficulty writing, perhaps through an undocumented physical impediment or a retardence in her ability to express herself in writing, though there is little evidence to base assumptions upon.
