Here’s two of Diocesa’s companions, Nostradamus and Esmerelda!
Esmerelda is a moon spirit who fell from the sky after a stray shooting star damaged one of her wings. She was found by Nostradamus, a traveling doctor, while he was out foraging for mushrooms to make medicine with, and he did his best to treat her. As Esmerelda healed, the two became close, and even after she no longer needed his care she often visited him, eager to help with his practice with her lunar magic.
After a while, the two fell in love and eventually married, and have been traveling together since.
The two met Diocesa and their (still unnamed lol) apprentice when they went to assist a small town whose entire population had suddenly become horribly ill with an unknown disease—together, the four of them found that a secretive cult had caused the plague in order to summon Unagoth, the god of decay. By working together, the group managed to convince Unagoth to leave the material plane, and made sure that the cult and townspeople were properly dealt with.
After those events, Nostradamus and Esmerelda offered to join Diocesa and their protege on their travels, believing that they could do much good working together. Diocesa eagerly accepted, relieved to have not one but two people who were able to practice medicine—a much needed skill, considering how often Diocesa’s recklessness and their apprentice’s inexperience often result in quite a few cuts and bruises.
