Gwendalar

A middle-aged human male with a rugged build, weathered skin, and short, dark hair streaked with gray. He wears a leather apron over simple, soot-stained clothes and has calloused hands marked by years of smithing and combat.

Norrick is pragmatic and shrewd, valuing profit over principles. He is wary of strangers but respects strength and cunning. His mercenary past makes him blunt and sometimes intimidating, yet he is fiercely independent and resourceful.

Norrick Vell was once a mercenary, hardened by countless battles and the harsh realities of war. After years of bloodshed, he settled in Berkshawth, a border town rife with conflict and opportunity. Turning his skills to smithing, he crafts brutal and practical weapons, catering to anyone with coin, be they noble or nefarious. His reputation is shadowed by whispers of a secret stash of cursed blades, reserved for those daring or desperate enough to seek them out. Norrick walks the line of morality, driven by profit and survival rather than honor or loyalty.
