No one can remember when Kier first came to Oakrest. She often arrives, reports to Copperlight, then waits for further instructions, never straying so far she can't be found again. She is there, then she is gone again, often for long stretches while she awaits a reply or engages in a lengthy negotiation with far distant parties.

Kier's word in the world is the word of Copperlight, and by extension, Oakrest. She conducts herself bravely and respectably, endeavoring to never put herself in a position that would disgrace the clan she serves. Still, her favorite part of her job is the travel - visiting new clans, carrying important parcels, arranging for specialists to return to the remote canyons of Dragonhome. There is a lot of space for quiet reflection and solitude in her job, which she relishes nearly as much as she does the time around others. Her best qualities are her independent nature, cheerfulness, and resolve, and if she comes across a little dismissive in her casual interactions, no one in the Citadel blames her.

After the clan opened the tunnels to Cairnstone Rest, Kier stopped staying in the Citadel, choosing instead to live among the oak grove or an older tunnel that let out onto the Shattered Plains. She is not scared of ghosts and spirits, but she feels unnerved living above them. When the Little Acorn Inn opened, she moved there on a semi-regular basis. When she is not at home, her room is rented out, but she can always expect it again when she returns.

Kier loves reading mystery novels, and she has several series which she follows. Her favorites are pulpy and weird, and do not play into patriarchy or misogyny. She packs several when she is ready to leave for a trip, and she often exchanges them for new options at the book traders of local clans as she passes through.
