Mistress Deirdry Noll (b. around 196 HE[1]) is an inhabitant of the Lower City of Corus. According to Rebakah Cooper she is "the best baker in all Corus"[2]. Mistress Noll even taught Beka how to knead dough for bread[3]. She started out as a baker on Mutt Piddle Lane and only moved from there around 244 HE[4]. By 246 HE she has a stall both on Nightmarket and on Daymarket. The house she lives in is situated in the Cesspool.
Deirdry was born as a baker's daughter and she herself married another baker[5].
Deirdry Noll has six children[5], two of whom are Gemma Noll and Yates Noll. One of her older sons lives in Port Caynn, another one in Blue Harbor[6]. She also lost several children shortly after they were born[7]. Her two married daughters live on either side of her house[8]. Her husband pressumably died, although the circumstances or date of this aren't known. He didn't have a head for money matters and lead the business to near ruin[8]. Afterwards Deirdry managed to make her business prosper. By 246 HE she can also afford servants[8].
In 243 HE she begins using the legend of the Shadow Snake to profit from her neighbours. She ruled her family with a strong hand. She made one of her daughters stay with her although she was beating her and even bullied her youngest son into helping her kidnapping and murdering the children as the Shadow Snake. She is arrested on May 11, 246 HE and sent to Execution Hill.[9]
