Background
The Shire does not produce great masters of Lore or keepers of Runes but there are a few individuals who can harness the power of nature. Many Hobbits know which herbs are good for curing a headache or upset stomach (usually as a result of too much time in the local inn) but it takes someone of great skill to collect and mix the ingredients necessary to cure more serious ailments. Ammeline is one such Hobbit.
Most villages have one wise old Hobbit who is the first stop for those who require help and advice. These wise old Hobbits act as physician to the sick, midwife to those entering the world and companion to those who are leaving. Their skills are also called upon to cure not just Hobbits, many a farmers prized ram has been saved from death by these helpful Folk.
Ammeline has helped countless young Hobbits into the world and has sat and comforted many an old Hobbit on their deathbed and when morning comes it is she who will lay out the body and console the bereaved. Ammeline accepts no payment for her skills but she is never short of hampers of food donated by grateful Hobbits and she always has a fresh stack of firewood beside her burrow.
She is held with great respect by other Hobbits but the younger children of the Shire tend to avoid her, just in case the stories of her turning naughty hobbits into toads is true.
