Lorraine Wood

Grumpiest Grump In The Haight
Lorraine Wood has another name on paper, but even her regular human customers call her Lorraine. She is thirty-nine years biologically, but easily mistaken for older. As a young childling, she had romped about the Haight, the fosterling of the Bean Bag's previous proprietor, a kindly old satyr named Enoch Greenbush. Then during her wilder years, Enoch had made Lorriane his heir and given her the Soapbox and its treasures for holding in his place when he went off on an adventure into the Far Dreaming from which he did not return.

Love & Loss
Barry Sweet was an unseelie boggan who swept into the Haight during the late 1990s. He was a graffiti artist and thief who stole Lorraine's heart. The two of them fell deeply in love, getting married and taking in several young fosterlings during their decade of marital bliss together. But Barry fell in with the Oakland People's Party and was part of a conspiracy to assassinate Duke Aeon in 2005. The assassination failed, the conspirators were caught, and Barry was among those executed by House Fiona. Heart-broken Lorraine was never the same. She fell to her own unseelie nature, becoming more tactiturn and snarky.
