The Dustsmith
Taaho Né'èshjaà
Gravedigger, gravedigger
Take what I have left
Give it to the lost
Upon my dying breathSave me if you can
The time for me has come
Let me be the one that got away

The past
About
Taaho came from a small band of hhetsarro who traveled widely across all corners of Xak Tural. Following the susurrations of their hhetso, the owl, they specialized in conducting burial and funereal rites, as well as the crafting of items of spiritual and mystical potency.Tribal lore holds to a long-deceased ancestor once crafting a vessel powerful enough to contain the mighty power of a tural vidraal, and the knowledge and tradition was passed down through the generations.Breaking with tradition, Taaho left to make her own way at the height of Shaaloani's cereuleum boom, and eventually settled herself in the town of Hhusatahwi.
The present
Hooks
The Bonepicker - Taaho has established herself in the boom town with a small junk and pawn shop. She offers a variety of wares from metal spangles for dancer's costumes to refurbished parts for mining and crafting equipment.Where the Gun Makes The Law -Taaho can also repair and even fabricate firearms and accessories. Though her best client is the Dustwatch, she's willing to take on other clients as long as it doesn't put her into hot water with that first one."Make It Shallow So That I Can Feel The Rain..." - Sometimes things in Hhusatahwi or the surrounding lands get rough. Sometimes, the other side of her tribe's training is needed of her. She'll be glad to tell you she ain't the undertaker here, but that doesn't always matter."We promised Vow Koana a mountain of scrap!" - Among the items in Taaho's inventory include a few pieces of salvage from the former First Promise's ill-fated assault on Shaaloani: strange technology powered by an excess of levin aether and other, stranger things. She's still making study of them, but might be convinced to part with one if the deal is good enough.

Taaho's Treasures
A selection of items from Taaho's junk shop in Shaaloani
(IC gil/RP items)Spangles - a collection of small metal discs in gold, silver and copper colors - or any combination of the three. Each is polished to a mirror sheen and drilled with a small hole at the top - perfect for sewing onto a dancer's costume, or anything else that suits your fancy.
Widgets Several bins of assorted mechanical parts. If you need a part to repair a particular something, you're likely to find it.
Rubber Bullets In case you step on the wrong person's toes in the saloon.
Cereuleum Lantern Tabletop-sized enclosed metal lanterns. They glow blue like the cereuleum fields at night.
Small Wood Carvings A harkening back to more traditional style of craftsmanship. Small animals, sanded disks with burnished designs...if there's something in particular you might like to find in this bin, it is likely there.
