-Character Name: Thorin Elm-Hammer
-What is your Race?: Dwarf
-Biography: Thorin Elm-Hammer is a young dwarf of 87 years. He was born and raised in a small Dwarf outpost which was destroyed by Orc raiders only a few years ago. Growing up, Thorin worked at a local mining supply workshop, learning to read, write and keep track of finances. About 50 years ago Thorin became an apprentice of a local mining and metalworking master and became an accomplished blacksmith and miner. A bright future as the town blacksmith ended when Orc raiders swept down from the mountains, burning and looting the outpost. The only thing Thorin carries with him from before the destruction of his home are the clothes on his back, his clan name, and a burning hatred of the foul orcs who ruined his peaceful existence and killed those he loved. Thorin has wandered far and wide since that horrible time and has now decided to try to settle down once again. Thorin recognizes that hatred wont keep him clothed or fed so he hopes to find work mining as he plots to avenge his fallen clan, the Elm-Hammer.
