Then on his way out he reads the notice board, and seeing they were moving, goes back and grabs the note. He then disposes of it and returns to his never ending fight of trying to get into uniform.

Roq goes outside to pick the crops so he could prepare dinner. However, as he tries to pick them, he finds that a powerful ward stops him from doing so. He has noticed this before, trying to use the oven or store his items in a chest. Rather frustrated Roq goes up to Polgrath's office, and seeing he is not in, leaves a note asking Polgrath to dispell the ward for him.

This sounds like a great idea to keep contraband items out of the hands of idiots.

Full Name: Rok Loni  

Current Age: 50; 7.143 seasons old

Sub-Race: Mountain Dwarf

Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Roq was born to a small, nomadic family of two. The father, Ronq Loni, descended from a very distant branch of the Goldhand Clan. The mother, Christine Star was just a common dwarf. The family was constantly looking for ways to make money but were always poor. They also had to move from village to village very frequently, in pursuits for new jobs. In one town, they were forced to borrow money from a money lender, to keep themselves from starving. After several years of working to pay him off, the money lender became impatient, and told them if they did not pay him back within a month, he would have all three of them killed. Ronq deciding there was no way to pay him back in time fled with his family, leaving the village and hopefully the thoughts of the money lender. Unfortunately for them, the money lender sent head hunters after them. Each time they settled down, the hunters would find them, and the family would barely escape with their lives. Roq saw how much trouble his parents went through to provide for the family and vowed to become a great merchant, just as his Goldhand ancestors, and eventually pay off the lender and let his parents live a life of luxury .

They settled down for a while in a large city; At the time Roq was 20 human years old and his parents deciding he needed a real education, gave up the few things they had to send him to a good school. He stayed their for 20 years and became very well learned. However, at the age of 43, 3 years after he graduated, his parents died to a fire that consumed the small apartment they lived in. Most people thought it was a tragedy, but Roq had seen the headhunters lighting a fire... Even though he attempted to save them, he was to late. This left Roq in a state of despair, and changed how he thought of the world. However, he eventually managed to move on, doing his best to forget the tragedy; however, thoughts of the evil money lender were always in the back of his head.  

In an attempt to erase the event from his mind, he focused on becoming the merchant he wished to be. After searching for two years for a job that fit him well, he found an apprenticeship under a well know engineer. After 5 years, of hard work for the engineer,  the engineer and Roq had become like a small family; the engineer a replacement father, and Roq a son the engineer had never had. They loved each other greatly. Over the years, the elderly engineer passed on all the tricks of his trade; everything he knew, he taught Roq. When the engineer died of old age, Roq was once again heart broken. Deciding the town had nothing left for him, he sold all the things left to him in the will (except a few tools,) a set out once again. Thius is where his story picks up today. At the age of 50 human years, Roq is beginning on his long path to become the wealthiest merchant of all.... and maybe even found a new dwarven merchant clan. 

Ambitions for the Future: Roq's ambitions for the future are to most, to lofty to achieve. However, Roq knows he can follow through with the goals he has set for himself. He wishes to make a new Dwarf merchant clan, become the wealthiest dwarven merchant in all the lands, and eventually buy a large plot of land and begin a new city just for his clan.

Personality:Not quick to fight but will if necessary, Know-it-all, Stands up for those who can’t, Loves meat and dark ale, Honest, Trustworthy, Hardworking, Inteligent, Polite 

Skills: Good engineer; Good at persuading people to buy things; As his family constantly moved arund from village to village and trade to trade, he is decent at most any job

____

1. Whilst mining deep in the undergrounds of Kalos you see a large deposit of diamond ore at the other side of the ravine you are on. There is a very thin rock bridge that looks precariously unstable,but it is the only way to access the deposit. What do you do?

Answer: You think to yourself seeing them,” If I am ever going to become rich... then I will have to take risks...” You decide that this is one challenge you will take. You carefully walk along the edge of the ravine and reach the bridge without much effort. You shrug off your bag and take out some rocks that you were going to sell. In total, they weighed about the same as you do. You toss them all onto the center of the bridge and wait for a reaction... Although the bridge once looked unstable, you now realize that it is strong enough to hold your body weight. You throw some more rocks at the others, and knock them all off making sure there is no extra weight. You place all of your extra gear except your pick on the ground and begin to cross the bridge. You get to the deposit and mine as many as you can and head back to the bridge. You toss the bag of diamonds across and head back across the bridge to your gear. You grab it all and think to yourself that the diamonds will be a good start to becoming a merchant. Right as you leave you see a glint of metal and the glint of two cold eyes. You pay no heed, but instead head up to your favorite tavern.

2. You are sitting in the local tavern with a large pint of ale in your hand - sitting nearby you isa rather young dwarf whom is clearly going through a bad time. He is crying to himself, and clutching a small wooden hammer toy. In the other corner of the room two shady dwarves are sitting whispering to each other and pointing occasionally at the dwarf. They stand up, one with a small dagger in his handand begin to approach the young dwarf. What do you do?

Answer:You here crying and turn to your right. Sitting there is a small dwarf with a wooden hammer. You take a swig of your dark ale and put your hand on his head. He swings around quickly, his face full of fear. He closes his eyes and begins to hit you with his small toy hammer, but to no effect. You grab his hand lightly and stop him. You then smile and say to him,” Peace laddy, peace. I don’t mean ya no harm.” The boy opens his eyes and takes a once over of you, “Your not one of them...” You reply,” One of who mate?” He answers looking around,” The merchants.. I... I stole this un toy from them.” He spots them walking over and points saying,” Them uns over thar.” You look around and reply,” Them? Ah well let me take care of this lad. Just stay right her’.” You walk over to the two approaching men holding the hammer in your hand. You ask if it is theirs and they reply yes. Then you tell them you will give them a diamond you recently mined if they will leave the child alone and another for the hammer. They agree and you head back to the boy and give him the hammer. You give him a stern talk about how bad stealing is and send him on his way. After another hour of light drinking, you head out with your pack two diamonds and some coins less heavy. Out of the corner of your eyes you see a man with stone white eyes get up and follow you out. 

3. Whilst wandering through the Dwarven Caverns you hear a voice call out to you; “Oi, ye’! C’mere n’get ye’rself an ale!”. You spin on your heel and see a heavily bearded bar-owner looking at you - a huge grin on his face, and a mug of ale in his hand. How do you react?

Answer: After leaving the tavern, you walk in a round about fashion, watching the man, in the corner of your eyes. He seems to be following you and you turn around eventually to confront him. “How may I help you sir?” you inquire. He replies holding out a pint of light ale,” I saw what you did for that child back ther’ and I was wishin to give ya a bit ofs a reward of such.” He nods to the ale. As he does so you see a glint of metal on his back and a memory of your time in the mines flashes to your head. You wonder if maybe this man is after your diamonds?! You pretend to ponder his offer for a few moments and then take the drink. You pretend to drink some but instead drop a small pebble into the drink and watch it. It dissolves quickly showing how toxic the drink is. You toss the drink away and pull out a dagger. He looks flabbergasted and stammers,” But how... that should ‘ave killed ya!” You respond calmly,” I know it was poisoned so I didn’t drink it. Now I suggest you go on your way or I may have to use this thing.” He runs off as you think to yourself,” I don’t like light ale anyways.” He walk home alert the whole time, but get home with no further incidents. You go to sleep after a long day, several diamonds richer and that much closer to becoming the greatest merchant of them all.
