Lucy Bell

"One Step Closer to the True Boot"

Lucy Bell is a cobbler from the red-roofed craft-houses of Old Town. Yet, few shoes are crafted by her hands these days, she still yearns for the simplicity of the craft. She serves as the president of the Stormwind Cobblers Guild. Her work has taken her into the political liaison and affairs for the Stormwind House of Nobles.

1.0 Biography
Lucy is somewhat of an enigma. She always has been. Though, her oddities are often overlooked for her kind heart and true desire for peace.

1.1 - Early Life
Lucy spent much of her early life travelling abroad. Her father served as head of the Stormwind Cobbler's Guild too and his work took him around Azeroth, tending to various regal feet. He would take Lucy on his travels and she would study in various schools and cultures, developing a reputation amongst each group she stayed with.

She returned to Stormwind for good at the age of thirteen, where she was inducted into the Cobbler's Guild. Her father taught her the art of shoe crafting and repair, swiftly gaining skills in the craft. For the next five years, Lucy studied her craft and had little contact with the outside world. She emerged a Cobbler of a prestigious rank within the guild at the age of eighteen.

Though, tragedy struck when she was 22. Her father was killed during the Great Cataclysm. He, and the majority of the Cobblers of Stormwind, had been working late with a garrison of troops in the Old Barracks. They were tending to the boots of some muddy infantry when Deathwing struck. Lucy's father and all of his associates were incinerated instantly. It was then that the role of Presdient of the Cobbler's Guild fell on Lucy's shoulders.

1.2 - Career
In her travels, Lucy became adept at reading and interpreting foreign languages. Her first job was spent translating for various officials in the places her father worked. She had also taken up studying old documents and is one of the premier philologists of Azeroth. Her work with languages and her overall scholarly education meant that the sweaty life of the Cobbler would soon be set aside for loftier goals.

With her father's passing, Lucy became head of the Stormwind Cobbler's Guild. She took this role in stride and has been working for the past few years on re-establishing its prominence in trade. Though, with the rise of the Defias Brotherhood and the disbandment of the Stone Mason's Guild, a void was left between the crafts and the nobles. Lucy took up the role of representing the workers to the House of Nobles.

She currently works on establishing a House of Commons for the people of Stormwind.
