Background: Roana Boulie is the fourth daughter of "Big Mama" Dally Boulie. She was born in the Hooktongue Slough and lived at various times in that great swamp and in the various hollows of the nearby Narlmarches. Though Big Mama Boulie had ten kids, only four reached adulthood. The rest were lost to bandits, trolls, or just disappeared into the swamp. Big Mama was a cook and a mixer of potent poisons and shared her knowledge with her children. When Roana was 14, she and her siblings woke up one morning to find Big Mama Boulie gone. They heard rumors later on that Big Mama had married a rich man and moved out of the River Kingdoms entirely, but they don't know if that's true.
When Roana was 16, she married Gullo Sixtoes, ten years her senior. They had two children, Nilly and Rowgun, before Gullo got drunk and fell into quicksand one evening. Three years later, Roana encountered Net Dellows aka Barrel-Head Net, a smuggler on the swamp. Constantly on the run, Net managed to provide for Roana for a while so she decided to marry him. They had three kids together: Bissa, Darl, and Tac. Over time, Net spent less time and home and more on the run, sleeping around, or curled up deep in a bottle.
After a few years of Net's absence, she received word that Big Mama Boulie was in trouble somewhere down in Riverton and needed money. Roana, who by now was known by locals as "Li'l Mama" Boulie, joined up with smugglers and bandits to try to save her mother. Long story short, it was a ruse set by Net to bail him out of trouble. Li'l Mama was furious at Net, but didn't take any action against him. Due to her actions, she was wanted by the locals, so she headed out and joined up with The Biggins Brothers Travelling Carnival until the group split up. Since then, she spent some time helping out a desperate elf who was searching for Sevenarches. One thing led to another and she had a sixth child, Larka. Larka is only two now, and Net is still too dumb and drunk to realize that Li'l Mama Boulie keeps a hat on the little girl to hide what is obvious to the kids and anyone else with a clue.
Though she's not eager to leave her kids, she has friends and other mothers who can take care of them for a while, plus Nilly, who never moved far away. Rowgun disappeared with a foreign woman years ago and Darl got eaten by an owlbear, but otherwise, the family is still more-or-less together.
