The Fractured Continent

A stout dwarf with a long, braided beard and piercing blue eyes. He wears a leather apron over rugged clothing, with various tools hanging from his belt. His hands are calloused from years of work, and he has a few scars that tell tales of his past battles. He often has a smudge of soot on his face from working in the forge.

Garrick is pragmatic and no-nonsense, often speaking in a blunt manner. He values hard work and loyalty, and while he may seem grumpy, he has a heart of gold. He enjoys sharing stories of his past and is always willing to lend a hand to those who show respect and determination.

Garrick Ironhand is a grizzled dwarf who has spent decades running a small but well-respected shop in the Iron Bastion, specializing in weapons and armor. He once fought in the wars that ravaged the continent, but after losing many friends and seeing the horrors of battle, he decided to retire from the front lines. Now, he uses his knowledge to craft and sell high-quality gear to adventurers, hoping to equip them for the dangers that lie ahead. Despite his gruff exterior, he has a soft spot for those in need and often gives discounts to struggling adventurers.
