About Ernst "Love" Lowfield

Answers to questions:

1. Visual description of character.
~The alias image is perfect for Love, I built him from it. Slightly sun-burnt, taking Foreign Opportunist campaign trait so he is new to Wati, short bearded as long beards and traps do not mix well. Dresses conservatively and practically. He is a professional, flash is for the client.

2. Why do you care about tomb exploring? Why risk death at the hands of ancient traps or untold horrors buried away? Isn't there an easier way for your character to make a living? Is it just greed for gold or something else?
~First it is something of a family business. The Lowfields have been making, and less publicly, breaking traps and vaults for generations. Think something like the Timsons from the Rumpole novels.
Love seeks to both expand the family business and to establish his own reputation by making a bit of a splash in this lottery. With a good name as a trapsmith and the funds from the tomb Love seeks to prove that the ancients cannot hold a candle to modern builders.

3. Brief history as to how you heard about lottery and came to be in Wati.
~Business contacts among Pahmet dwarf community sent word about the opening. Senior family members being conservative (they are dwarves after all) decided to send Love partly to test the waters pending any real commitment of resources and as a test for the young lad.
