Qelline Alderleaf

A halfling who farms land on the edge of Phandalin and also serves as the town's informal reporter, following up on local events and seeking statements from notable figures. Her son Carp discovered the secret tunnel near the Alderleaf farm that the party used to infiltrate Tresendar Manor in Session A03.

Following the clearing of the manor and the Redbrand crisis, she sought a statement from Kavu about recent events in Phandalin.

Session A14 — The Reidoth Lead

In Session A14, Kavu visited the farm during a rainy return to Phandalin. Qelline and her son Karp were hauling in potatoes; Drizzle was working in the kitchen.

Through this visit, Kavu learned that the druid Reidoth periodically comes to the Alderleaf farm for supplies — and that he can be found near Thundertree. This transformed Thundertree from a vague map location into the party's next actionable destination.
