Elle McGibbons

Ninety-nine years old, wheelchair-bound, sometimes calling Carl 'Barry' after her late husband, and fond of telling him what she would have let him do in the tunnel of love.

Arc

A Frost Maiden with Graupel, a fifty-mana ice storm from her deity box (ch. 2), who iced the NPC who would have taught them to sail, froze the sea when Imani crashed the boat, and holds an oil rig's fireballs off with ice. She relays what Imani will not (ch. 14), reports a flaming giant walking through her bubble ('Well you better fix it') (ch. 28), keeps the Gate safe, weeds liars out of the rescue queue by instinct (ch. 32), tells Florin the story of a man and his cat (ch. 33), threatens the whole floor on a puppy's behalf, and goes down the stairs after handing the three pieces back (ch. 33). Eighth then seventh; her bounty never doubled.
