Description
Physical Description: Glokhand on the tall side for a dwarf, and solidly built, the better for barreling through groups of Goblins. He bears the dark hair of his clan and the marks of hard fighting over many years.
Personality Description: Glokhand is an angry dwarf at the best of times, but that anger is shrouded by the mastered patience of a warrior and scholar. Having lost all he once held dear, Glokhand goes it alone, unwilling to make connections with others. When in battle alone, Glokhand throws himself at the enemy with reckless abandon, heedless of danger and allowing his rage to batter foes into submission. In the rare instance that Glokhand is fighting with a group, he fights selflessly, aiding those in need. Glokhand enjoys reading old books, travelling, metalcrafting, the smoking of pipeweed, fishing, fighting and duelling, and a good inn.
Bio
Glokhand was born to the impoverished dwarf clan of Copperbrow, which clung to a patch of ruins and subterranean halls upon the foothills of the Blue Mountains. He grew older among strife and violence at the hands of the Dourhands. Under Glokhand's father Glouran, the warriors of Glokhand's clan held the Halls against Dourhand raids time and time again, though both of Glokhand's parents were killed. Finally, it was hunger, not the Dourhands, that got the best of Glokhand's clan. The clansmen scattered, seeking refuge elsewhere in Ered Luin. Glokhand decided there was nothing left for him but to take up his axe and sell his talent to those who would offer quests for him. Glokhand has now ranged from Ered Luin north to the North Downs and far east to the Misty Mountains completing quests. All this time, he has fought every step of the way, hefting his deadly mace, "The Storm of Helegrod," and using his shield to bash enemies with unmatched skill. Glokhand only pauses in his quests to seek respite in towns, study ancient texts and books, and to make trouble for the Inn League. His primary source of income is through hunting for skins in the Misty Mountains. Glokhand wanders restlessly these days, actively searching for battle and stronger enemies to challenge.
