Blackrat
He Who Lurks Beyond The Veil
It had been talked about in the Hall for decades. If someone were to find the Axe of the Ancestor Lord, he could save the dwarvenkin, turn the tide of the war and drive the hated orcs and elves from the ancient halls. The Fathers had deemed it too propesterous idea to send needed men out there on a hopeless mission, but if someone volunteered they gave their blessing.
Your younger brothers had always been enamored by the stories about the Axe. They had practically bugged you about finding it for a decade before you finally agreed to do it.
So after consulting the priests about what little is known of the Axe, you one day packed your pack, gathered your weapons and set out with a caravan to above, to a human-town.
Your only clue, a name of a fallen outpost where the axe was last recorded; Baler's Forge.
The caravan consists of two carts, filled with ore, jewelry and some weapons, on route to a place called Fallcrest. With you are four other dwarves, each at least half a century older than you. One of them even a greatbeard, the venerable elder Agnar Boulder, tradesmaster of Emerald Hall.
