Baroness Kestral Abernathy

Matriarch of the Abernathy family.

the Baroness strongly dislikes her future daughter-in-law, Eriola. In order to rid the keep of Eriola's presence, she gave the party aid in the form of money, horses, and letters of introduction. She was convinced to do so by Eriola, who told her that she would most likely die while on her quest, and thus it was on in the interest of the Baroness to speed along Eriola's demise.

Baroness Abernathy sent along DoctorMarbent to keep an eye on Eriola and report back to the Baroness. Prior to Marbent's death, she was corresponding with him.
