Niall Liosach

Niall is a druid, formerly of the village of Wisbech, thought now resides in Thornbrush Thicket in a community of goblins.
== Description ==
Niall Liosach was an elderly human male in his late eighties who was married to a beautiful high-elf diviner by the name of Eira. A man of good intentions, though questionable wisdom and morality, Niall is a druid that seems to act before thinking, which perhaps has limited his progression of authority and responsibility in life to protecting a potted plant. Whilst somewhat jovial in nature, one might guess he was a rambunctious young man though the passing years have been less kind, leading to outbursts more akin to an elderly man reaching the latter years of life.
== History ==
The couple had dedicated their lives to the protection of the relic known as the Elderfey Blossom. That was until the old druid grew tired and disgruntled by the widening gap between him and wife's physical age, seeing himself wither and slowly fade as his wife was still a young woman in his eyes. This was exacerbated by Eira who sought the divination of the oracles of Ravencourt, who would grant Eira visions of her husband's passing. This knowledge weighed heavily upon the druid, who awaited each passing day to see a look of sadness in his wife's eyes that would mean his death.
Wishing not to know when his death would come, Niall would disappear with the relic and hide beyond the sight of divination in the goblin village of Thornbrush Thicket, where the magics of Habglin would protect him. It was here that he would make a deal with Habglin to become a goblin and then send word to Eira through intermediaries of his passing, in the hope she might move on after a period of grieving, and that he might find some peace in in the unknowing of his fate.
Following intervention of adventurers of the Twilight Grove, Niall was coerced into returning to Wisbech to speak to and reveal the truth to his wife, only to modify her memory to forget of their relationship and history together, so that she could finally move on without sorrow or heartache.
