Manaia Turei is a female gnome working within the Collective of Bodhan to maintain the treescapes and surrounding infrastructure of the city of Jrusar.[1] As an NPC, Manaia Turei is played by Matthew Mercer.
Description[]
Manaia has "a massive wreath of dark hair that nearly touches the ground behind her," woven with colorful beads and topaz gems. When Bells Hells met her, she was wearing a work vest decorated with dangling twisted wire and gems.[2]
She has a fierce sense of justice and strong connection to nature, making her a trustworthy ally of Lord Eshteross's in his youth.[3]
Biography[]
Manaia apparently owed Ariks Eshteross a favor, and he suggested that Bells Hells might collect on it by calling on her ability to transport people via plants.[4] However, when the party approached her while trying to reach Keyleth, they realized they didn't know where Keyleth was at that moment. Almost immediately, Keyleth appeared through a nearby tree, and the party departed with her for Whitestone, leaving Manaia somewhat flustered.[5]
Manaia was able to repay the favor the next day, however, by transporting Bells Hells back to Jrusar from Whitestone at their request.[6]
