Reldha Gravemann
Reldha Gravemann (a.k.a. Rel)
While "placing an order with the cold cook" has been a piece of Braggan slang used to indicate that someone is being a fool, and is likely to get themselves killed for over a century, the notion that one doesn't want to make the aquaintance of the cook has perhaps never been truer than in Reldha Gravemann's 2 decades of service as Braggo's undertaker and knacker.
While never a particularly well-regarded profession, largely due to Braggan taboos about the dead being handled by people outside of the priesthood, Gravemann has managed to accrue an especially unsavory reputation, being widely regarded as a filthy, drunken cheat, and a generally shifty character--hardly the sort of person you want tasked with preparing your deceased loved ones for the grave. Some might question how fair this assessment is, but few are eager to find out for themselves, and very few can claim to know the undertaker personally.

Personality Characteristics
Hygiene
While not outright gross, it's always a little too apparent that Reldha spends most of her time either digging holes, handling corpses, or 3 tankards deep in one of Braggo's less reputable alehouses. It is a rare sight to see her free of a thin film of dirt, and a strange, acrid odor hangs faintly about her, hard to notice, but harder to ignore once you do.
Social
Family Ties
Though she was fairly close--if not always on the best of terms--with her father in life, he is long since dead, and the identity of her mother was a secret he took to the grave. Her only remaining family is her two sisters: Seriyah and Alexera Jaevers, neither of whom she is said to be on particularly good terms with.
Religious Views
She's seen fairly regularly around the temple of Odovakr--albeit rarely for services--but the general impression is that she's not a particularly pious woman.
Speech
Reldha's accent is unmistakably that of a lower class Braggan, with a clipped cadence, sharp consonants and rounded vowels, made all the more pronounced by the impatient, laconic way she speaks.
Relationships
Wealth & Financial state
It is pretty obvious just by looking at her that she's not exactly rolling in coin, and just about any frequent patron of Braggo's taverns and alehouses could tell you that she is rarely able to hang onto money for long.
