Penny the Lucky

Penny the Lucky
Title: The Scavenger’s Darling
Role: Penny is a young woman who is said to have the "best luck in the Wastes." She always seems to find the most valuable artifacts and always manages to avoid the most dangerous traps. She is a popular figure in Fortune's Lake and is often seen as a symbol of hope for the town’s desperate scavengers.
Secret Motivation: Penny’s "luck" is actually a result of her being a "Dragon-Touched." She has a limited ability to "sense" gold and magic, a gift she inherited from a draconic ancestor. She is being hunted by the Obsidian Scale, who want to use her "sensing" ability to find the location of Aurelius’s hidden hoards. She is looking for a "Safe-House" where the cult can't find her.
Adventure Hook: Penny is "followed" back to town by a group of cultists. She asks the party to help her "hide" in the ruins of the lake-bed while she waits for the heat to die down.
