Isharnai

 is a woman who lives alone among the Cyrios Mountain woods north of the Bromkiln Hills. She wields strange magics, weaving boons and hexes for those who make the journey to find her, demanding high prices for her deeds, sometimes beyond mere coin. As an NPC, is played by Matthew Mercer.

Appearance
Nott's memory of Isharnai was of a humanoid woman with elongated features, very high and prominent cheekbones, jowls sunk very deep and hanging below, and dull green eyes. It is unknown if this is Isharnai's true form or not. Jester's later Scry revealed a woman wrapped in heavy, tattered robes with long gold-trimmed rope wrapped around from shoulder to side, holding it on in a very unique, ready-to-travel pattern. Her arms were long, the fingers extending out reminiscent of Keona the Keen. Definitely not human, she moves with unnaturally graceful, sweeping gestures and sudden rapid grasps and snatchings. She had gnarled clumps of hair drifting out from the sides of the robe, tangled and knotted into large rats' nests.

Home
Isharnai lives in a bramble forest among dark, dangerous woods and rocky mountainside cliffs. Her house is small, dense, and cluttered in an organized way with everything in its place, but it is very jam-packed. There are many collected books, papers, broken lanterns and pieces, elements of animal bone, and a large collection of jars and vials. In the corner lies a collection of stones arranged in a pattern.

The party realized that the mysterious woman that transformed Nott into a goblin, and the soothsayer that foretold Beau's father Thoreau Lionett's business success were possibly the same, which Caduceus confirmed with Commune. Researching at The Cobalt Soul, they discovered she was likely Isharnai the Prism Mage. Nott used Disguise Self to show the others her memory of the woman, and Jester cast Scrying on her, successfully seeing her in her home casting runes. However, Isharnai looked up and saw the scry focus, saying, "Hello. Who's this I see? My curiosity is piqued. I hope this means I’m having visitors." She then crushed the focus between her hands.
