Griselda came from the Fey Plane, drifting into the mortal world as many hags do. By the edge of the water she raised a crooked cottage and opened a small shop. There she sold potions, salves, charms, and trinkets to common folk. Remedies for aches, luck for travelers, little magics to make hard lives softer. She asked fair prices and rarely lied outright, in time she earned a strange reputation of being unsettling, but reliable.
Her downfall came with a noblewoman’s secret visit - the woman begged for a potion to rekindle her husband’s love, and Griselda provided a draught meant to strip away self-deception and awaken the heart’s true desire. The potion worked exactly as intended - the husband, long in love with another woman, abandoned his wife without hesitation.
Furious and humiliated, the noblewoman claimed betrayal. She used her influence, her coin, and her fear of scandal to turn the authorities against the hag. Accusations of witchcraft, manipulation, and treasonous magic followed swiftly, and just as swiftly came the guards with a harsh judgement. Now Griselda is bound to serve the Shackled Legion with her potion and her magic, hoping to eventually regain her freedom.
