Description - A light-skinned large stature man, burly, hairy, and full of not chiseled but refined muscle. (closely related to what you would find on a construction worker) Long flame tinged brown hair, which is typically kept thick and somewhat unwashed looking, usually covered in soot, ash, and dust from wood, metal fragments, and coal. He does have a constant nasty cough, which will pick up every once in a while. His body is covered with cuts and bruises from his line of work, as well as burn marks on his hands, arms, legs, and lower torso.
He has no tattoos.
History - Coming from a family on the far reaches of the mountain pass village had a child. This family was poor, but it has its work cut out for them in their survival, their plot of land had a small field for some crops and several small sheds to keep animals safe from the predators of the wild. Their primary source of food was making nails and tools for the few villages that it sat between, but sometimes held traveling guests or customers on their way to or from a location.
Eventually, they had a son, in the process the mother had died, but the father would raise that son to the best of his ability, teaching his son the trade of metalworking and rune crafting. The runes were mainly to strengthen tools that were crafted, but in the book his father held dear, there were things that could do majestic things. But for him and his father, neither could read and only knew several of the things that the father's father had taught him.
Eventually, the father grew old, and on the sons coming of age date came, his father had died. With this he continued his father's work, hammering away at iron, copper, steel, anything that he could get his hands on. Making tools and nails, and eventually a sword for himself, it was somewhat barbaric, with no cross hilt, but it was something to defend himself with. He would continue like this until he was ready to leave, he took whatever money he had collected from selling a lot of what was on his property, and giving it to a family friend of his.
He took what was important to him, and what he needed if he needed more money in the future. Mainly tools of his trade, and a book of his father's texts on runes, as well as the tools to forge the runes into the crafts he made. He had learned a lot from his father, but there was still much in his time that the middle-aged man needed to learn. Maybe this upcoming journey that he has left almost everything for will be what is needed.
