[[File:Sister_Garaele_Portrait.png|right|200px|thumb|Sister Garaele, Devotee of Tymora and Keeper of the Shrine of Luck]]

Sister Garaele is a young elf cleric of [[Tymora]], goddess of luck and good fortune. Intelligent, curious, and more than a little eccentric, she serves as caretaker of the [[Shrine of Luck]] in [[Phandalin]]. Her gentle manner and strange sense of humor conceal a sharp intellect and a deep network of connections.

=== Background ===
First met in [[Session 03 – Welcome to Phandalin]], Sister Garaele requested the adventurers visit a banshee named [[Agatha]] to inquire about the lost spellbook of the wizard [[Bowgentle]]. To aid them, she provided a silver comb as an offering to ensure Agatha’s cooperation.

To the townsfolk, she appears as an odd but harmless holy woman. In truth, Garaele is a field operative of the [[Harpers]], dedicated to gathering knowledge and quietly opposing tyranny in all its forms.

=== Relationships ===
* [[Phandalin]] – Her base of operations and the seat of the [[Shrine of Luck]].
* [[Agatha]] – The banshee she seeks to contact through intermediaries.
* [[Bowgentle]] – A lost wizard whose spellbook she seeks to recover.
* [[Harpers]] – Her secret faction affiliation.

=== Current Status ===
Alive and active in [[Phandalin]], continuing her quiet work for the Harpers while guiding travelers and adventurers who pass through the town.

=== Appearances ===
* [[Session 03 – Welcome to Phandalin]] – Offers the quest to contact [[Agatha]] and recover information on [[Bowgentle]].

<details><summary>🧩 DM Notes (Spoilers)</summary>

'''Truth:''' Sister Garaele’s true Harper mission involves tracking signs of necromantic resurgence and lost arcane knowledge — both of which may connect to the growing activities of the [[Cult of the Dragon]]. She suspects Bowgentle’s spellbook contains information about magical bindings once used against dragons in ancient Faerûn.

'''Foreshadowing:'''
* Garaele may later become a Harper liaison for the party in ''Rise of Tiamat'', facilitating their introduction to the Council of Waterdeep.
* Her interest in divine prophecy and ancient relics ties naturally to the Emerald Enclave and the Harpers’ cooperation in opposing Tiamat’s rise.
* If the party recovers Bowgentle’s spellbook, it could contain clues to the history of dragon-sealing magic and lost enchantments linked to the Dragon Queen’s imprisonment.
