Borin is stocky and solidly built, his muscular frame hidden beneath well-worn but finely crafted plate armor. His beard is long, braided, and peppered with silver streaks, while his deep-set amber eyes carry a calm but unyielding focus. He wears a thick leather belt adorned with an array of tools for his role—ranging from keys to simple magical devices used for gatekeeping—and a large warhammer is slung over his back, engraved with runes of protection.

Borin is methodical and no-nonsense, preferring the straightforwardness of action to idle conversation. He values tradition and loyalty above all else, and while he is not without a sense of humor, it is dry and often comes at the expense of those who break the rules. He is deeply respectful of the arcane power that powers Levithal but is wary of the potential consequences of mishandling such power. Borin is the first to step in when things go awry and will not hesitate to show force if needed.

Borin hails from the mountainous regions of Velarion, where his clan was known for their exceptional craftsmanship in both smithing and defense. His decision to leave his clan came when he felt the call to adventure but never lost his commitment to his people’s ideals of order and defense. Now stationed at Veilstone Hall, Borin oversees the flow of individuals coming in and out of the spire, ensuring that only those with the proper clearance are allowed access to the powerful magic within. He is a trusted figure, known for his strict adherence to protocol.
