Arriving with Saldashune's caravan on 23 Nightal, 1373DR, Ruby is as charitable and compassionate as she is blind, and has proven herself to be a friend and counselor to all who have come under her care. Finding herself to be "in the right place" when she came to the village, the hin woman remained behind when Saldashune moved on, in part to care for freedmen Jama, Mera, Rajaput, Rondell Blimth, and Silkenray after their liberation by Valentino Rizavi and the First Freehold Council.

To that end, Ruby proposed the idea of the halfway house on 30 Nightal, 1373DR, funding the project in part with her own funds. She now serves as unofficially-official steward of the place, doing much of the cooking for those who lodge there.

Originally a PC, Ruby was converted to an influential NPC when her player retired 17 August, 2016.
