At about the age of 102, Thorhud's father began taking him out to see the world and the ruins of Asulon, but never took him more than a few days outside of Kal'Karik. On these small trips, Glorkas taught his son the ways of adventuring, and they were near inseperable, Glorkas taught him all he knew: From axe-wielding to trap recognization, all he had learned while in Asulon's Many Ruins and forgotten places.
Then, In the summer after Thorhud's 117th birthday, his father came home, collapsed at the doorstep. He was terribly sick with Grish. When Thorhud's Father awoke several hours later, he told him that he had been bitten by a cannibal on his trip home, and that...
Thorhud never found out, as the last breath sent from his father's mouth died in the wind, never being heard, and Glorkas' axe fell to the floor.
Thorhud, with tears in his eyes, grabbed the axe, and hugged it to himself, as the world stopped around him, as he closed his father's eyes.
AS if that wasn't enough grief, his mother soon passed away a few days later from catching Grish. Thorhud then proceeded to land himself in the gutter, with only alcohol as his ally, by Then, as fate would have it, the undead burst into the city. Thorhud was suprised, and grabbed his father's axe.
As he fought a retreating action for his life, he managed to get to one of the moored boats with a crew preparing to depart, thankfully this was a lesser used shipyard, so the undead presence was light. After holding the undead at bay for 10 minutes, they managed to get under way, and leave behind the burning city for Anthos.
After finally reaching the new city of Kal'Azgoth. Thorhud spent his last 8 years training himself in axe-wielding even further, And Also apprenticed himself to a blacksmith for the minas for basic equipment, hoping to be many times over his father, In fact, had it not been for the undead invasion, Thorhud would most likely have died in the gutter, Alone.

Each question in this section must be answered with a minimum of one paragraph which must describe the event in full. Please be as descriptive as possible and do not break character or lore at any point.
____
1. Whilst mining deep in the undergrounds of Kalos you see a large deposit of diamond ore at the other side of the ravine you are on. There is a very thin rock bridge that looks precariously unstable, but it is the only way to access the deposit. What do you do?
Answer:
Thorhud takes out his pack, and grabs a large amount of rope, as he realizes that the bridge must have been extremely Perilous at construction to deter a greedy dwarf from taking the minerals earlier. So, Thorhud grabs the rope, and ties it around the largest, secure rock nearby, and then ties it to himself, giving himself a bit of slack. He ties it around his waist and his armpits like a harness, And then grabs another, longer rope from his bag. He ties one end to his grappeling hook he brought for climbing up cliff walls to reach minerals, and throws it across the chasm a few times, until it catches firm.
"Well" Thorhud Grins "'Ere goes a bit o' Somethin'" And starts walking across the rock bridge, using both end in case the bridge begins to crumble.
2. You are sitting in the local tavern with a large pint of ale in your hand - sitting nearby you is a rather young dwarf whom is clearly going through a bad time. He is crying to himself, and clutching a small wooden hammer toy. In the other corner of the room two shady dwarves are sitting whispering to each other and pointing occasionally at the dwarf. They stand up, one with a small dagger in his hand and begin to approach the young dwarf. What do you do?
Answer:
Thorhud Immediatly Swigs a last gulp of the ale, and gets up, with his handle on his axe by his side.
He Unsheaths it, and blocks the path of one of them, the one with the knife.
"I suggest ye drop the knife and get yerselves another drink." Thorhud Says as he stares at them. The dwarf without the knife places his hand on a shortsword, hidden by his cloak. Thorhud Immediatly Shifts his axe's blade 90 degrees, brushing the axe blade against the Knife Wielder's Stomach. "I Insist" Thorhud Growls at them both. The other one then lets go of his sword and starts walking back to his table, shortly before the knife wielder sits back down as well. Thorhud then continues to watch them with his ale in hand
3. Whilst wandering through the Dwarven Caverns you hear a voice call out to you; “Oi, ye’! C’mere n’ get ye’rself an ale!”. You spin on your heel and see a heavily bearded bar-owner looking at you - a huge grin on his face, and a mug of ale in his hand. How do you react?
As Thorhud Smells the ale, he is overwhelmed with the desire to drink his favorite type of ale: The Silver Inning Ale.
He fondly remembers the last time he drank it, just before he last set out for his expeditions. He begins walking into the nearby tavern with a look of serenity on his face. He walks into the bar and drops his pouch of minas onto the counter. "How much for Three Silver Innings?!" He Exclaims happily with a smile on his mouth and in his eyes.

Answer: Thorhud examines the bridge, and doesnt feel very safe. He's going to need those diamonds for his collections. Thorhud then realises: "If theres a bridge to this diamond deposit, why hasnt anyone collected it if they've built a bridge?" Thorhud believes its becuase the bridge was never stable to begin with. Thorhud then sits down and rustles through his pack, and grabs his sturdy crossbow, and alot of rope. He then takes aim at a rockface above the diamond seposit, and fires a blot attached to some rope. As the bolt catches in the rock, Thorhud yanks at it to insure its secured properly. he then attaches another crossbow bolt onto the other end of the rope, and fires it into the rocks above him, and then tests the rope again. He then grabs hold of the rope, and puts most of his weight onto the rope, and begins crossing the bridge, holding the rope with both hands, dumping all but his most important equipment behind on his side.

1. Whilst mining deep in the undergrounds of Kalos you see a large deposit of diamond ore at the other side of the ravine you are on. There is a very thin rock bridge that looks precariously unstable, but it is the only way to access the deposit. What do you do?
Answer: Thorhud examines the bridge, and doesnt feel very safe. He's going to need those diamonds for his collections. Thorhud then realises: "If theres a bridge to this diamond deposit, why hasnt anyone collected it if they've built a bridge?" Thorhud believes its becuase the bridge was never stable to begin with. Thorhud then sits down and rustles through his pack, and grabs his sturdy crossbow, and alot of rope. He then takes aim at a rockface above the diamond seposit, and fires a blot attached to some rope. As the bolt catches in the rock, Thorhud yanks at it to insure its secured properly. he then attaches another crossbow bolt onto the other end of the rope, and fires it into the rocks above him, and then tests the rope again. He then grabs hold of the rope, and puts most of his weight onto the rope, and begins crossing the bridge, holding the rope with both hands, dumping all but his most important equipment behind on his side.
2. You are sitting in the local tavern with a large pint of ale in your hand - sitting nearby you is a rather young dwarf whom is clearly going through a bad time. He is crying to himself, and clutching a small wooden hammer toy. In the other corner of the room two shady dwarves are sitting whispering to each other and pointing occasionally at the dwarf. They stand up, one with a small dagger in his hand and begin to approach the young dwarf. What do you do?
Answer: Thorhud Immediatly Swigs a last gulp of the ale, and gets up, with his handle on his axe by his side.
He Unsheaths it, and blocks the path of one of them, the one with the knife.
"I suggest ye drop the knife and get yerselves another drink." Thorhud Says as he stares at them. The dwarf without the knife places his hand on a shortsword, hidden by his cloak. Thorhud Immediatly Shifts his axe's blade 90 degrees, brushing the axe blade against the Knife Wielder's Stomach. "I Insist" Thorhud Growls at them both. The other one then lets go of his sword and starts walking back to his table, shortly before the knife weilder sits back down as well. Thorhud then continues to watch them with his ale in hand.
3. Whilst wandering through the Dwarven Caverns you hear a voice call out to you; “Oi, ye’! C’mere n’ get ye’rself an ale!”. You spin on your heel and see a heavily bearded bar-owner looking at you - a huge grin on his face, and a mug of ale in his hand. How do you react?
As Thorhud Smells the ale, he is overwhelmed with the desire to drink his favorite type of ale: The Silver Inning Ale.
He fondly remembers the last time he drank it, just before he last set out for his expeditions. He begins walking into the nearby tavern with a look of serenity on his face. He walks into the bar and drops his pouch of minas onto the counter. "How much for Three Silver Innings?!" He Exclaims happily with a smile on his mouth and in his eyes.

Race: Mountain Dwarf
Age: 132
History: Thorhud Pladugan grew up in the Dwarven capital of Kirak as the only
child of a clan-less family.
His father was an adventurer and as such, Thorhud rarely saw him, and was
mostly raised by his mother while his father was away.
At around the age of 93, Thorhud's Father limped home, extremely sick with
Grish, from being bitten by a canibal.
His father soon died, and his mother soon died as well from the disease.
Thorhud was lucky enough to avoid infection, and was taken in by a neibhouring
family.
For the rest of his 39 years in Kirak, He studied Blacksmithing, practiced,
and got ready for the time to do as his father had done, to find lost
historical finds and artifacts.
Thorhud stands at about 3' 4" and has green eyes like his father. He also has
long head hair, reaching down his back, to his waist. He always carries more
than one weapon, while his favorite is an Axe. He rarely keeps common weapons,
and grabs them when he finds them on the fly.
He Is Extremly Gruff, Even for a Dwarf, but has softer inards than most when
they find them.
