Sencha

 is a dwarven healer from Jorenn Village.

Appearance
Sencha is a dwarven woman with gray-dappled brown hair, brown skin, and wrinkled hands. She typically wears a headscarf and a copper hammer pendant on a long braided chain, a holy symbol of the All-Hammer.

Background
Sencha lived in Jorenn Village prior to the conflict between the Shadewatch and the miners.

Sencha encountered Vax'ildan after he was badly injured in an ash walker attack and brought to the miners' hideout. She healed him and Emryn, but Emryn did not survive his injuries. She guided the still-injured Vax'ildan when the group fled deeper into the mines, and told him about the mining operations. Vax'ildan noticed that while Sencha held Junel's hand by the fire, she seemed to be reaching for someone else with her other hand. She later spoke with him after having used her spare healing magic to ease a dwarven woman's chronic leg pain, and expressed regret at Emryn's death. At Vax'ildan's insistence, she told him more about Jorenn Village and the conflict. She didn't deny the miners' responsibility for the ash walkers and told him about Fracture, and how Shademaster Derowen used it to protect the town. During the initial attack on the hideout, it was Sencha's job to collapse the tunnel.

Sencha avoided being captured by the Shadewatch and was present when Vex'ahlia and Trinket visited the miners' hideout. Sencha stayed in Jorenn Village to tend to Thorn's wounds following his capture by the Shadewatch and attempted murder by Derowen, but later returned to the hideout with the others when Thorn recovered.

Junel
Junel is Sencha's partner. She is fond of their cooking.

Thorn
Sencha and Thorn have a close relationship. Sencha affectionately calls him "foolish boy" or "stubborn boy." She was very upset about his plan to surrender himself to the Shadewatch in order to protect the others. Sencha later stayed behind in Jorenn Village to tend to Thorn's wounds.

Vax'ildan
Sencha and Vax'ildan developed a warm relationship during his time in the miners' hideout. Sencha was the one to treat his wounds when he first arrived and in the days following. She treated him similarly to how she treated Thorn and saw similarities between the two half-elves. She was worried about Vax'ildan when he was in Jorenn Village with Vex'ahlia, and expressed it by both hitting him and hugging him. He kissed her on the cheek, prompting Vex'ahlia to tease her brother about being a heartbreaker. Before the twins left the Umbra Hills, Vax'ildan told Thorn to "[g]ive Sencha [his] love and tell her to take care of [Thorn]."

Abilities
Sencha has healing abilities from her divine connection to the All-Hammer. Vax'ildan described her healing magic "like the heat of a summer's day."
