It has been said that Ostraic Steelshaper was born with a hammer in his hand. He grew up in the forge with his father, Dugan, learning the ins and outs of the forge, while his mother tended to the house. Dugan, being a firm believer in the saying “Spare the rod and spoil the child” instilled in his son a work ethic as strong as the swords that he made. He didn’t have many friends, but the ones that he had were like brothers to him. Ostraic worked alongside his father until he was 70, after which Dugan made him set out on his own to seek a fortune for himself. He traveled from place to place but was unable to find somewhere he could call home until he came across the Irongut clan.
Ostraic nods at the man, “Mornin”, he says warily. “Just passing through”.
