Jamwill

You’ve just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As you look around, your gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. You duck and step into a tattered tent, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the tent, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town? she begins, then pauses to study your face—”Ah, it’s you. I’ve been expecting you. Sit,” she gestures at a cushion, “Tell me your story.”

((How do you respond?))
 

Gallio looks at the hag with questioning eyes. "You've been expecting me?" Gallio sits down, and starts thinking. "If you want to know my story, I should start with my pa'." He starts looking around the tent, trying to think of a place to start. "My pa' was a great blacksmith which gained great honor through his craft. His axes were as beautiful as they were functional, and throughout my youth I was helping him around the forge." Gallio says proudly. "After years of helping, I was finally given a hammer for myself, and made my first blade." He takes off his backpack and pull out a small leather wrap. Opening the wrap reveals a small rough knife with engravings spelling "Gallio" in dwarven runes. "This knife was what started my career where I followed my dads footsteps to become a blacksmith." Gallio wraps the knife back up and puts it back into the backpack. "Since then I have studied techniques by great blacksmiths, trying to make masterpieces of my own." Gallio takes out an axe and holds it out in front of himself. "This is by far my greatest creation so far. An axe worthy of a member of clan Grandaxe. It has served me well for many years and hopefully will continue to do so for many more years." He places it on his left side with the axe head leaning against his thigh. "Besides smithing I currently travel the world, looking for smiths and learning from their techniques. My goal is to learn rune smithing, and one day create a family heirloom which will make my ancestors and my descendants proud." Gallio says with a big smile.
