Agnes

**Agnes** together with her husband, is an [Innkeeper] in Celum. Her inn is known as the Frenzied Hare and was languishing prior to Erin's arrival.

## Appearance

Agnes is a woman in her mid-thirties. She has a friendly demeanor, although she looked harried when her husband was ill. The first time she met Erin, her apron was slightly smutched.

## Personality

She is cheerful, friendly and nice. Only people who have to deal with her a lot find out that she can behave in slightly annoying way, trying to steer everything her way so that she doesn't go through much trouble. Erin had some trouble coming to grips with Agnes being an ordinary, and ultimately, selfish person.

## Background

Agnes started her career first as a [Tailor], until she met and married her husband, Jerom Ronald Cecil Cumin. In that marriage, she is the dominant person.

Ryoka stayed at her inn, but not for long, when she first arrived in Innworld, as she didn't like Agnes.

## Chronology

### Volume 2

Two weeks before Erin met Agnes for the first time, Cumin fell ill and Agnes had to hold his inn together. She had the friendly personality for that, but her bad cooking drove away customers, since she didn't have Cumin's Innkeeper Skills.

Erin, after having arrived in Celum, decided that she liked Agnes and stayed at her inn. Right after testing the first meal, she started to take over Agnes' duties as cook and innkeeper, serving delicious food she produced with her [Advanded Cooking]. When protecting the two barmaids, Safry and Maran, from sexual harassment, she started a bar fight, which was then broken up by Wesle.

### Volume 3

Erin and Agnes decided to split up the profits they made together, but Ryoka suspected that Agnes still profited from this deal a lot more than Erin, since Erin quadrupled the business profits.

Agnes tried to help Erin to find another career for Jasi, but she quickly ran out of ideas and Erin suspected she didn't actually want to help. Erin then decided to organize a troupe of [Actors], the Players of Celum, who first performed in Agnes' Frenzied Hare. This wild success was another huge boost for Agnes' business. Eventually, Erin left Celum and went back towards Liscor, but even while her magical door was on the way she still ran the Frenzied Hare for Agnes. Afterwards, Agnes took holidays and spent a lot of the coin Erin had helped her to get.

As a favor for Erin, Agnes participated in the relief mission to Esthelm.

### Volume 4-7

On a visit to Celum, Erin went to Agnes for advice on hiring help, but ended up with her employees Maran and Safry who badmouthed their current employer and volunteered to work at her Wandering Inn. The two maids quit with Agnes which permanently soured Erin's relations with her, especially since the whole deal didn't work out either.

After her complaint with the Bar Association of Celum failed, Agnes spread bad news about Erin's Inn, but Drassi eventually corrected that.

In [Barkeep] and [Innkeeper] circles however, news about their falling out even reached Pallass. On the bright side, her husband was back on his feet again.

Agnes represented the innkeepers of Celum in voicing their grievances towards Erin. This culminated in the Magical Door being banned from Celum. Jasi later visited Celum and decided to visit the inn where she had first gotten her start as an actress. Agnes was there and filled Jasi in on some happenings in Celum. To Jasi, she was overbearing, pushy, and thoroughly unpleasant. Agnes made Jasi sign autographs for 20 minutes before she was able to flee.

### Volume 9

Agnes as well as many local innkeepers were brought in by Lyonette to help house and serve people during the three day celebration of the heroes of Orefell. Despite bad history between herself and the Wandering Inn, she was given similar treatment to the other innkeepers.
