Onella's Palms

Several poles extend from the painted walls of this small storefront. Dozens of wooden and metal chimes of various pitches and sizes dangle from the poles, drawing attention and contributing to the aural landscape of the neighborhood.   Strange geometric patterns similar to those on the aprons of the Rhennee gypsyfolk (see R9, below) adorn the walls and entrance arch, and strange purple smokes sometimes spill from within, luring in passersby with a redolence of saffron and cinnamon. The words “Palms Read” appear next to the door in Common letters painted two feet tall.   The smoky, duskily lit wooden structure is the home and office of Onella Otavi (female human), a middle-aged Rhennee wisewoman who fled her domineering husband and set up shop here nearly two decades ago. The beautiful, energetic seer has made a name for herself in the River Quarter, both as a talented mystic and as a charming bon vivant. Now in her early fifties (and no less alluring for it), Onella Otavi has settled down with the weaponsmith Cerenoc, proprietor of the Nine of Swords.   Onella reads palms, the cards or the tea leaves for a mere 5 gp, but she is has offered to call upon her bloodline for a quasi-magical reading. These magical readings drain her and she carges a minimum of 200 gp for using these abilities.
