Jasmine Underhill

**Jasmine Underhill** was a halfling and friend of Ozey Lancaster, a founding member of Dench and Friends. Jasmine is known for her journal, detailing some of the adventures she had with Dench and Friends as well as her disturbing and unfortunate demise in her encounter with the Vale Creature.

## History

### Early Life

Jasmine was born in Aleleaf Meadow, and lived a relatively uneventful life. She became interested in reading and writing at a young age, and was not ever far from a book. She worked as a kitchen hand at her parent’s inn saving money for her tuition and apprenticeship as a scribe. During this time she became friends with Ozey Lancaster.

### The Curse

When Jasmine was 15 years old, her father took ill suddenly. Jasmine gave her savings to hire different medicine men, herbalists, healers, and clerics to try and save him. All came to the conclusion he would die soon, and it was magic beyond their capabilities.

Jasmine prayed an pleaded with gods, before one listened. She allegedly made a deal, and her father’s life was saved. Jasmine continued to work to help her parents despite knowing her dream of becoming a scribe was no more.

As she worked, she continued to stay in touch with Ozey, though a scandal drove Ozey from Aleleaf Meadow, and Jasmine was heartbroken to see him go, believing he was framed for the supposed murders.

Jasmine’s family grew worried however, as Jasmine would talk in her sleep in incomprehensible languages. The family kept quiet, and a few years later the talking stopped.

Over the years the inn did well, and Underhill Inn became a popular destination for travelers staying in Aleleaf Meadow. At the age of 24, Jasmine was happy she could help her family, though her father’s curse only became worse. Through it all, Jasmine was said to have never been seen without a smile.

### Dench and Friends

After hearing her best friend Ozey was invited to join the Lion’s Paw Mercenary Guild, Jasmine saw this as an opportunity to explore and maybe find a cure for her father’s curse while bringing good to the world elsewhere. She packed her things with hopes of writing about her journeys, and set out with Ozey to Wheatriver, where she would become one of the first members of Dench and Friends.

Jasmine’s travels with Dench and Friends. She managed to obtain a large amount of treasure in a short period of time, and was able to send he money home to further help in her absence. It was in this visit home she made attempts to heal her father with her newly honed abilities, but to no avail. Still determined, she returned to Dench and Friends and continued on.

### Leaving Dench and Friends

After the Fall of Wheatriver, Jasmine left with Cairne in search of her own answers and fear for her Family’s safety. In her travels, she notes that the abandoned mine Dench, Ozey, Cairne and her entered on their first assignment together was likely occupied by the Cult of Three. She continued on to Aleleaf Meadow and began studying to uncover all she could about Mythrix and the Cult of Three. In this time she managed to lessen the curse for her father, but not remove it.

Jasmine’ search led her to Gildran, where she pieced together Beiryll’s involvement in the resurrection of Mythrix. She was hunted by Gildran soldiers, and a warrant was placed for her arrest. Jasmine escaped, and headed to Tower Aurumis just days ahead of Dench and Friends.

### Vale and Death

When Jasmine reached Vale, she stayed in the city for days researching Mythrix and waited for Dench and Friends. They all met, and stayed together. Like most accounts from Vale at the time, information is limited and makes little logical sense, but according to Jasmine’s journal she was likely killed by the Vale Creature shortly after Dench and Friends arrived.
