The Mothers were a coven of three hags that terrorized Isonhound around 825 PR.

About

Each of the three Mothers were also bakers, each making a specialty treat that they would pass out to those unfortunate enough to fall for their alluring tricks.

The Mothers were also considered personal enemies of some specific Fey in their area, namely Tristram Caniedydd.

Members

Mother Love

Mother Love was responsible for sending the heroes of the Greedy Green after the Black Dragon known as Thymorala. Apparently the black dragon had been causing her personal problems, keeping her from accessing a unique set of Feytouched Herbs near the dragon's lair.

She offered them various alchemical ingredients...and also her iconic Mother Love Pie. Which was enough of a reward to twist the heroes into enacting her will, ridding her of an enemy.

Mother Joy

Mother Joy's specialty was the "Mother Joy Candy". She was able to infiltrate and get it into the hands and heads of Isonhound via manipulation of the guild known as the The Protectors of the People, a philanthropy group that fought against the rich and gave to the poor. By donating large amounts of delicious Mother Joy candy to the group, the Protectors unknowingly began to send it out across the continent.

When consumed, the candy put people into joyful, addictive crazes, demanding more to reach the same joyful highs they felt the first time, which usually led to death via depression. When killed in this fashion, Mother Joy could claim the joyless soul as an ingredient to be used in future baking rituals.

After one particular delivery, spearheaded by the paladin Arlin, suspicions grew too high, and they realized the candy had supernatural intoxicating qualities. The paladin cleansed the food with his own divine magic, but then helped the PotP on a mission of vengeance against the mothers.
