Just for your info, here's my character: Name: Korgan Grundalson

Current location: Minas Tirith

Story: Born as and raised by the dwarves of the Knights of the Raven Skies, Korgan found fame within their ranks, first as a miner, then as a smith as he continually impressed his trainers with both the luck he seemed to have and the skill with which he manipulated the materials he found and moulded. He was most praised on the intricate designs he would work into what he was crafting, and began to take pride in making beautiful tools, weapons and armour. Unfortunately his notoriety became his undoing.

The master smiths around him grew worried he would soon surpass their skill, and so conspired to have his credibility ruined through tax fraud. Their ruse fooled the nobles and he was forced to flee his home with only one of his many sets of equipment or face incarceration for life at the hands of the Hall Militia. All of his tools, materials and crafted items were seized by the master smiths upon their discovery of his flight. Try as they might, they could never quite understand how he could accomplish his success, so don't expect this to be the last you hear of them.

After fighting off the fastest pursuers while fleeing his home, Korgan at first only focused on getting as far away as possible. After determining that he was no longer in danger of being caught he evaluated his options, and could see only one logical course. With the small amount of KotRS currency he was able to bring with him he was only going to be able to afford a few very basic materials to start plying his trade again, but would not have a place to do so nor the money to obtain one. So he travelled to Minas Tirith to try and find work as a blacksmiths assistant to help him save the capital he would need for his own space.

Equipment: (Prior warning: As he could only take one set, I would think it would obviously be his best)

Dwarf steel helm with embossed swept wings starting from the temples. Light mail hauberk from shoulders to just below knees including arms and gauntlets, beneath thick plate armour from neck to waist, with studded leather strips hanging around the bottom. Steel greaves and bracers with mail and leather shoes.

Two-handed war axe with a single large blade with a spike on the other side to balance it out a bit. Steel pickaxe and roundshield strapped to his back

Watch for my coming.....
