Appearance: The hammering lessens as a stout dwarf enters from the back room, stripping off thick gloves. A monocle sits over one eye, held by a black leather strap. His brown beard is precisely cut and his mustache is waxed into upturned points. Despite his grooming, his cheeks are red from the heat and there are smudges of soot on his face. He recites brusquely, “Welcome to Sunderwolf and Son.”

​

Personality: Korbin Sunderwolf is a hard dwarf to get to know, preferring to focus on his smithing and the sale of the weapons and armor he creates. He prizes his reputation as an honest dealer and would not easily jeopardize his good name. He can be overly stubborn, often proud, and is rarely forgiving. 

​

Motivation: What’s an honest dwarf to do when his wife is at death’s door and both his children are disappointments. Nothing to be done, but one’s best. I’ll work and keep working. I’ll work and I’ll pray.

​

Roleplaying Tips: Korbin is often bearish and blunt, but not malicious. He knows his business and strikes fair but hard bargains for his goods. He’s most content at his forge, humming off-key tunes as he works.

​

Background: Korbin Sunderwolf learned to craft weapons and armor from his father, from whom he inherited the family business. Though nothing extravagant, he takes pride in solid workmanship and has grown Sunderwolf and Son into one of the more successful armorers in the city. He now oversees a handful of junior smiths whose work helps him fulfill the contracts he’s secured with the City Guard.

​

Traits: Craftsman, Intelligent, Lawful, Merchant, Resilient, Strong, Tactless, and Wise

​

Dark Secret: Korbin’s estranged brother, Rowell Sunderwolf, is a high-ranking member of the criminal organization known as The Union, a fact Korbin considers a family disgrace that has taken years to bury.
