Story:
Do you want to know about my old or new life? Both……ok
I hail from Hagegraf, the city of the duergar city in Nar-Voth. Second son to an unknown blacksmith. Life was hard, toiling away, in the service of the one true dwarven god Droskar. It’s what my kin believe, not what I believe. I didn’t agree with the teaching of Droskar and/or living like a true duergar but I understood at a young age not to show it, being different isn’t tolerated.
Personally I gravitated more towards the teaching of Torag, the true father of dwarves. Secretly praying to him gave me strength.
Duergar community is brutal, evil, again not my own ideals. You didn’t ask questions, just did your job without questioning. I have pretended to be someone I’m not for the last 40 years.
As a young duergar is about to become a man he is sent outside the city walls as part of a patrol. An initiation so to speak. A few days out we came upon a small dwarven excavation party. The patrol captain decided to attack them. Seeing the utter rage in my brethren eyes for other dwarves, even ones from the world above made me sick and something snapped. I confronted my own brothers before they could attack. I was quickly subdued but the excavation party had gotten away in the commotion. I was put in shackles, spit on and cursed at for being a traitor. The captain gave chase but the other group wasn’t found. After that the group marched back where I would face punishment for my betrayal, death.
When the excavation party arrived at base camp, one of the members went straight to the commander to tell of the heroic action of the unknown duergar. The commander sent his best and fastest men after the duergar patrol. They found them 2 days later and a fierce battle erupted. The dwarves were victorious and the shackled duergar was taken before the commander. Tell me what you want and I grant it to you if it’s in my power. Looking up at the commander the duergar said I want to live beside my brethren, not by race but my brethren who share the same honor and ideals. A smile erupted on the commander’s face and he ordered his guards to remove the shackles.
You are free to go where you want but it would be my honor that you accompany me when I return above ground.
The rest is history…..before I forget. The commander was the crown prince to Janderhoff and his nephew was on the excavation party.
The next ten years I have lived amongst the dwarves of Janderhoff, following the teachings of Torag. I have even become an inquisitor in his service. The crown prince is to this day my closest friend. The dwarves of Janderhoff have taken me in and view me as one of their own.
The prince had me summoned to his private quarters. My friend, it’s time for you to go outside these walls. I know the sun and you don’t get along but I need you to go outside this citadel. One day I will be king and you will be one of my closest advisers. I need you to experience, live and interact. My father is sending a small group to the village of Trunau and I want you to be one of them, be my eyes and ears. I nod at the prince and turn around to gather my gear for the journey ahead.
My name is Meadin Grayskin, duergar, citizen of Janderhoff, follower of Torag and trusted friend.
Appearance:
At 4,7 feet large for dwarven standards with a lean physique. Gray skin, bald head with a white small neatly trimmed beard. White eyes. Wearing a chainmail, shield in one hand and waraxe in the other.
Love:
1 Sun, feeling the warm rays of sunshine on your skin, after 40 years below ground.
2 Friendship, having people around you who want to be your friend because of you, no strings attached. Not like the Duergar, where there are no friends, just coworkers and subordinates, giving or receiving orders, just alliances.
Hate:
1 Duergar, I hate my former kin and the way they look at the world, with hatred and malice. Not to coexist but to conquer and destroy.
2 Slavery, people treated as property, the owning and trading of a person. Everyone should be free, is a right not a privilege.
Posting Habits:
Can post daily, even on the weekends. Have been playing roleplaying games for about 20 years and PBP for about a year.
