Hothfarr is the son of Angrim Stonehand and Kartha Axebane (a cousin to Rorsk Axebane). Named after a legendary king from a mythological dwarven city, Angrim named his son in order to inspire him to great things.
Hothfarr works long days in his extended family's company, the Tuskhead Stoneworking in Breachill. Whereas Rorsk Axebane has the family's acumen for business and the raw power for bellowing commands at others, Hothfarr has none of that. He does have a raw and unrefined talent for sculpting stonework, making sculptures and engravings. Though many would say his work is pretty good (for an apprentice) and he puts in good work and effort at his job, Hothfarr has destroyed many of his own creations in anger. Anyone who would say something about it would get a gritty remark, a stern look or a loud grump if not a punch on the chest. It's maybe more obvious to some, but many of his fellow dwarves don't see his obsessive perfectionism. It is a trait that tends to make him focused but grim and almost never satisfied with his own work. Things have heated up amongst his colleagues and him now, even Rorsk Axebane himself suggested he should take a few days leave soon, then come back.
After long days at work, he tends to sculpt for his own relaxation, away from other eyes, always a work in progress. It is at these times that he longingly looks towards the ruins of the castle atop Hellknight Hill, a faint dream well out of his grasp at this moment. If ever there would be a chance to make a masterpiece....He would take it...
