Lakena (pronounced lah-KEE-nah) is the elderly gnomish Grand Mayor of Yarma. Extremely well-liked and seen almost as a grandmother to many in the city, Lakena has been continually reelected almost unopposed for the last sixty years. Despite the size of the metropolis, Lakena has for decades maintained a policy of talking to all who seek her guidance, frequently spending twelve hours a day or more in the walking through city's markets simply conversing with anyone and everyone.
Though she carries a gnarled walking stick with her most days, Lakena does not allow her age to slow her down on her daily walks around the city. Already venerable when elected to her position, she remains committed and dedicated to seeing her city prosper.
