Axodeth's original bio...

Full Name: Axodeth Stonecutter
Age: 79
Class(es): Fighter
Race: Dwarf
Subrace:
Alignment: LG
Deity: Vorax
2 Domains (if cleric):
Bio/Description: Born to a mining family, with 3 siblings, 2 brothers and one sister. Axodeth was the youngest of the sons that worked with thier father in the mines, although Axodeth was not satisfied with the way his life was leading, he continued to work diligently to keep up the family name of Stonecutter. His father oversees alot of the mining activity, instructing the foremans as to where to dig next, how deep, and so forth.

One day, there was a cave in that was very unexpected and Axodeth's father and oldest brother were killed, this tore the family apart, especially when thier mother married another, The time had come, for Axodeth to take his leave and leave his home in the shadow Mountains.

He carries with him the Greataxe that his father had given him on his 40th birthday, it has seen its share of battle, when the orcs came....

This journal is written in Dwarvish. This is the Common version, Dwarf common that is.

2 weeks after mine cave in....
Father's dead. Thar's bin a cave in at th' mine, Father and me eldest brother are gone from the clan now, th clan 'as came together te 'elp me Mother, she hasn't went te work fer a week or 'as it been two? Can' really remember, but she be not takin' it te well, none of us be. It be beleeved that th' orcs caused th' cave in te distract us, it did, then they attacked, I kin still be smellin' th' orc blood on me axe, need te be cleanin' it as soon as I kin, dem orcs be stinkin'.

Day 1   Leaving home....
Well, I lef' the Mountain today, I don' be knowin' whar I be goin' but I be knowin' I can't be stayin' 'ere any longer. We drove the orcs off th' Mountain 3 months ago, th' elders don' beleeve they be comin' back anytime soon, hopefully that is, I wouldn' be feelin right if'n I lef' me clan an they were attacked again, but my clan be strong they know 'ow te be protectin tharselves. I don' be un'erstanin why Mother 'ad te marry tha' Elder Dwarf of the Hammerhand clan so soon after Father's death, security I be beleevin'. As 'e be 'avin a seat on th' Clan Council of Dwarves in the Mountain. As long as 'e be takin' care of Mother I be deelin' wit' it. I 'ope me brother an' sister will be ok witout me bein' thar, Not sure why they be takin' to our supposed new Father. Vorax look down on 'em an be takin' care of 'em, they be family.
I beleeve I be goin' te fin' an inn an' call it a night, I be 'earin of a place called Hlint. Should be gittin' thar soon, 'ope so it be gittin' almos' dark.

Day 1    Later in the evening after arriveing in Hlint.....
Well, I finally arrived in Hlint, nice little town, Th' inn be nice and th' ale be good enuff fer a dwarf, mayhaps I be stayin' 'ere fer a while. Will be needin te fin' werk soon.

Week 1 day 1 in Hlint.....
Well, I be livin' at de inn 'ere in Hlint, gort te thinkin abou' meh clan dis eevnin' an 'ow I beh missin e'erybody der en de mountain. I be knowin  dey be werkin en de moines. I 'ave foun' eh moine 'ere neer Hlint, e'erytoime I be goin der eht remin's meh o' 'ome, I kin jes beh seein de young lads follo'in in der Fodders footsteps as dey be lernin' whut dey mus' fer de clan te run smooth. Jes loike meh an me brudders, lernin fro' our Fodder te be gittin' de ore fer de smitty's. Eht be moi job te be takin' de ore te dem, I kin remember de soun's o' de 'ammer hittin de anvil's as I be walkin' en. When I be goin en, Gorthur o' de 'ammersmith clan would always beh callin' meh o'er te em. 'e would beh showin' meh de wares 'e be makin' fer the 'uman trade days. 'e would always sey te meh, "Ef'n ye was me boy, ye would be makin sumdin loike dis" an 'e would 'old up 'is craft, sumtoimes eht would be an axe or e'en eh sword. 'e would beh makin de swords fer de trades as de 'umans would come te de trades fer dem an' would beh payin' large amounts o' gold fer dem as dey would always beh sayin, "Nothing like a sword from the anvil of the Hammersmith". Gorthur 'ammersmith wernt blessed wid a boy te be teachin' 'is craft te, but 'e be 'avin two young ladies 'e beh tryin' te teach. Te e'eryones sirproize dem two girls could forge armor te de loikin' o' Kings. Dey lernd meh priddy much whut I be knowin abou' craffin armor, o' course dey didn' be teachin' all dey knew, ef'n dey did dat, I would be craffin much better dan I be doin' as o' now.

Week 1 day 2....
Foun' werk tiday, bin askd te git a 'ead o' a goblin cheiftin, I think I kin be 'andlin eht alroight, sez 'e be goin' te pay fer de 'ead. I better beh gittin a move on.

Later same day....
Gort de 'ead o' de gobby chieftin, gort meh gold an meh belly be full o' ale, loife be good roight now. Was e'en able te git me sum copper ore whilst en de moines affer killin de chieftin, gort gobby blood en meh ore bag, eht really be smellin' bad eht does.

Week 1 day 4.....
I be meetin some good peeple 'ere in Hlint. Kaizer Thell, 'e be sellin' goods from 'is 'ome, 'e beh takin meh an som udders te 'is 'ome an 'e sirproizd us wid a gif', 'e be givin meh a noice soot o' armor, I beh 'opin dat de armor a be tryin' te make could be as well made as dis be.

Week 1 day 5.....
Thinkin' o' 'ome agin, gort 'urt en de moines, durned gobby's keep comin back while ye be moinin'. Can' dey beh takin a 'int. Beh goin away durned gobby's. Shur could beh usin de blessin's o' Thorin o' de Soulguide clan, Priest o' Vorax. When I would beh gittin 'urt en de moines 'e would always 'ave te tell meh o' Vorax an 'ow 'e would leed de clans en battle, 'e would tell meh tales o' past wars en Vorax's name, loike when de clans be claimin de mountains in de beginin' o' loife. Thorin beh knowin I wer becomin' res'les en de mountain, 'e sed 'e could tell dat I wer goin' te advintur out ente de world ootside de mountain. Thorin Soulguide an mehself talkt fer miny yeers until 'e wer electid fer th' Council o' Elders, 'ope 'e beh doin good fer 'imself. I beh 'opin 'e beh chekin on Mudder fer meh.
