Biography and Description:

Perhaps it was the sound of the hammers beating on the forge. The rhythmic pounding as a dwarf lost his sense of self, and became one with the spirit of creation. Boltar felt the rhythm of the hammers beat through his soul. He felt that in this rhythm there was a power beyond the creation of weapons and tools. A power to inspire hearts to be fierce in battle, to inspire fear and terror in the hearts of the enemy. Boltar's father Berk Storm'Hammer would hear nothing of his sons dreams to make music. He was dismissive, “You will be a smith, and a fighter for our clan.” So, Boltar learned his weapons well. He learned how to use the war hammer which was family tradition. All the while when working on the forge, he played on his fathers denial, and beat on the forge with the rhythm he felt in his heart. A rhythm that inspired other dwarfs to work harder, with fierce and proud blows. Boltar was fascinated with how his sounds could inspire others to greatness.

There was a traveling merchant, a story teller, a gnome that would visit Boltar's clan in Ulgrid's Fortress. The gnome was named Glissen Haveyoursack, and he was known for being a shrewed bargainer. He would tell stories of brave adventures that fought fearsome orc and giant clans. Boltar memorized these stories, and at night he would whisper, practicing the art of story telling. Boltar learned from this gnome that with the power of stories and songs he could inspire others to greatness. It was Boltar's desire to inspire others that drove him on this course to become what he must become. Boltar confided in Glissen, sharing his desire to become a musician and story teller. Glissen nodded and smiled through the story, as if he heard it a thousand times before. His advise was simple and genuine, “If you do not follow your heart in this matter, then you will always feel a bit empty inside. Like a hammer must beat on things, you must perform.

At the tender age of 38, Boltar and Glissen made a deal. Together they sneaked out of the clans fortress and into the night. Boltar spent the next four years of his life lugging Glissen's bags around. In exchange he learned stories and songs. How to play various instruments, especially the drum. He learned how to tap into the weave with the power of sound and spirit in his heart. Finally there came a day when Boltar woke up to a note. He was in the fields of Hempstead, and the note stated simply, “Gone to Ulgrid's G.H”

Some final notes on character creation:

• Please note that racial adjustments for players with subraces are skin based and thus get applied after getting in game.
• Only two ability scores can be less than 10 and only one can be less than 8 after racial adjustments
• Brownies, when selecting a head, the head you choose on the halfling selection will correspond to that numbered head for elves (for example, clicking right 6 times on the head selection during character creation will take the 6th head when clicking right on the elf creation)
• Half-giants and ogres, please ask for a GM (type /dm Anyone here?) if you would like to change to a custom skin.

have fun with this one
