Melmir Stonesoul

Description
Melmir is tall for a mountain dwarf. Towering at 4"11 and weighing at 180lbs of mostly muscle he is a force to be reckoned with. Since he is 200 years young Melmir has been through the unthinkable, causing him to lose his left eye and his right eye to become black. Spending so much of his life underground his skin has become incredibly dry, rough and wrinkled due to the lack of sunlight. As hair is a status symbol among dwarves, Melmir has long grey and ginger braids that stretch down the small of his back, as well as a long, braided ginger beard to show his supieriority among his kin.

Departure
Learning about his kins past, Melmir left his life behind and set out to seek revenge on anyone who can be deemed responsible for the actions taken upon his kind. After his abrupt decision to leave, many people within his stronghold were torn on whether or he be deemed a hero or fool with some saying that he is not welcome back and some celebrating his bravery to stand up for the dwarven race. Alone and filled with lust for blood, Melmir set out and eventually ended up in Vorchester where his adventure truly began...

Family Name
Melmir Is a descendant from the Stonesoul family, which the great Magmir resided in, widely known for being the best forger in all of Aedavar. The Stonesouls have always had a history of treating their work with the utmost precision and cautiousness to produce simply stunning works of architecture through their formidable patience.

The family started tens of thousands of years ago on the planet Dweorg when the mountain dwarves first settled. Magmir was one of the founders of the Neyahr stronghold, who was tasked with keeping the forge alive and in good condition. It has since become family tradition to live up to these standards and fulfil the same duty that Magmir once endured.

Guild
As Melmir is a direct descendant of Magmir, he was destined to be in The Forgekeepers guild. This was an exclusive guild for those who were prodigious at forging and carving. Members were tasked with keeping the forge in alive and constantly maintaining it, on top of crafting weapons and carving stones. “Those who live by the forge, die by the forge”. The dwarves who are good enough to become a member take an oath to protect their Forge, whether that be taking guard or giving your life to help the forge live on.
