Bea Farbough

**Bea Farbough** *(BEE FAHR-bo)* is a human farmer running Farbough Farm, located south of Hillsfar in the Moonsea, with her husband Ebenz Farbough. A kind and accepting woman, Bea and her husband took in 12 nonhuman orphans when the Great Law of Humanity expelled all free nonhumans from the city of Hillsfar. Later, through the growing influence of Graz'zt on the Moonsea Region, Bea went on to have sextuplet children of her own- though she believed this to be a gift from the goddess Chauntea instead of a byproduct of a demon's influence.

Bea Farbough is an NPC from the *Heroes of Hillsfar* Duet.

## Description

Bea is a human woman of Vaasan descent, standing at about five feet and seven inches (1.7 meters) and weighing about 160 pounds (72.5 kilograms). Bea has graying blonde hair, blue eyes, and she appears to be older than she really is due to the stress of being a mother for eighteen children.

## History

Bea married her husband Ebenz when they were both young, managing a farmhouse southwest of Hillsfar alongside him for many years. During the first twenty years of their marriage, both of them tried many times to have children, though all attempts failed- leading them both to believe that it would be impossible.

When First Lord Torin Nomerthal re-established the Great Law of Humanity in 1487 DR, Bea and Ebenz found their opportunity to be parents. As a result this edict, all nonhumans being expelled from the city, including twelve nonhuman children that were forced out of their lives at Madame Delilah's Home for Orphaned Children. Ebenz and Bea chose to house these orphan children, adopting them into the Farbough family. The children adopted after Nomerthal's edict were elves (Elora & Myrin), half-elves (Bree, Lancelin, Lucy, Luilda), dwarves (Bridd & Vagnar), halflings (Eriss & Verner), and a single tiefling (Pynroth). It was only a week after adopting these children that Bea began showing signs of being pregnant.

Five months later, after a miraculous six-month pregnancy neither Bea nor Ebenz expected after decades of infertility, Bea gave birth to sextuplet children that she and her husband named Allan, Davos, Ebenz, Karl, Raff, and Yric. These children were each born with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, a byproduct of the fact that their birth was a result of the demon lord Graz'zt's growing influence in the Moonsea Region. Being uneducated farmers and accepting people, Bea and Ebenz did not see anything truly wrong with their children and accepted the young sextuplets as a late gift from their patron goddess Chauntea.

Not long after the birth of these children, the Farbough Farmhouse was visited by the trio that would one day be known as the Heroes of Hillsfar- the drow clerics Calrak and Luaffyn, along with their half-drow companion Kyralie. They had come to investigate the farmhouse after receiving a prophecy regarding the family, though Bea assumed they were merely travelers asking to stay at the barnhouse. They were directed to help Bea's halfling son Verner with the farm's pregnant goat Jovee, and they were also tasked with finding her tiefling son Pynroth, who was avoiding his own chores. Ultimately the trio helped the goat Jovee give birth to demonic red goats, and they saved Pynroth from a pack of angry wild dogs. After the trio saved the family from the rapidly-growing and aggressive goats, Bea and her husband rewarded them with a meal and lots of fruits, as well as a place in the barn to stay for the night- though they ultimately chose to sleep elsewhere.
