| Information |
Cordelia, known to many as the "Grandmother of Rats," is an elderly beggar-woman often found sitting and singing on the town gallows or drawing strange pictures in the ashes at the Broken Dagger. She has no known relations, sleeps in the hollow under the gallows-stair, and subsists completely on the kindness of inn-keepers and passers-by.
She is quite insane, and prone to fits of light song and strange rhyme, uttering 'nonsense' phrases with a poetic base, a cackling laugh, and unpredictable behavior. She has a violent aversion to bathing or brushing her hair, but a giggling attraction to handsome young men -- as if she is still an ingenue of fifteen. She also mourns publicly for a lost son, Billy, whom many locals agree never existed.
If she possessed a family name at one point, she has since lost it.
Many cite numerous and differing stories on what, exactly, caused the batty old woman to go so completely and utterly mad. Most residents of Myrkentown agree, however, that she is quite harmless -- and, at times, very entertaining.
