Ashen Lands

He is a tall, broad-shouldered man with weathered skin and a grizzled beard streaked with silver. His sharp blue eyes, the color of ice, are always watchful. His once-dark hair is now mostly gray, medium-length, and loose. Scars from past battles crisscross his arms and face, reminders of his former life. Though his appearance is tough, he often wears a genuine smile. He dresses in simple, durable clothing, favoring leather, with a silver fang-shaped pendant hanging from his neck as a symbol of his legacy.

His words are as sharp as the fangs above his tavern door, speaking in hard truths to those who listen and wasting no breath on those who don’t. Friendly to newcomers, he measures people by their actions, not their words. Loyal to those who earn his trust. Eldrin’s sharp eyes miss nothing, a trait that serves him well in gathering information. Those who pass through his doors leave with full cups—and, if they’re wise, a bit more sense than they came with.

Eldrin "Silver Fang", the owner of the Silver Fang Tavern, is an old barbarian who once hunted the great wolves of Greywood Forest. In his youth, he earned his nickname after slaying a massive silver-furred dire wolf that had terrorized the area near the Drakenstone city. After retiring from the hunt, he settled in Drakenstone and built the tavern at the edge of the city as a place for weary travelers to rest. The sign above the bar is shaped like a pair of silver fangs, a tribute to the wild creatures he once hunted and the strength he carries with him. Though his body is worn, Eldrin’s sharp eyes miss nothing, and those who cause trouble in his tavern quickly learn that the old wolf still has teeth.
