Mama Nacre (Nay-kur)

Wholesome old lady and spiritual leader of Guritism in Jug, the capital of the Iji Islands of Rengia.

Nacre (a.k.a. Mama Nacre)

Nacre, known to all as "Mama Nacre", is a wholesome old lady who lives in The Iji Islands of Rengia and is the current leader of faith for Guritism across the isles. She leads the ceremonies in the largest guri temple in the capital city of Jug.  

A Peaceful Soul

Her barnacled face is always smiling, and her wrinkles tell stories of a lifetime of kindness.   You will often see her conversing with plants and wildlife, giving them gentle words of gratitude and encouragement - just the same as she does for anyone she meets.   She loves to greet newcomers to the isles and will always invite them to the temple for refreshments. Before they leave she will make sure that they have seen everything they want to explore, and she gives them a hand carved octopus pendant made of dukori as a memory of the stories she passed on of Gurita.

  5. Exercise your mind, and your body will be at peace.

  8. Consume only your fill, so that others may feed.

The Secret of Nacre

This wholesome old lady can only smother you with kindness or overfeed you with tasty meals - she couldn't hurt a fly! What many folks don't know is that she used to be quite the fighter in her youth.   Nacre was a self-proclaimed protector of the isles and fought in many skirmishes. She hides her scars well.
