Because of this his Gran (who also happened to be the Clan leader) decided to send him away to be trained as an alchemist. (His Gran was very wise and very practical and sending Orbril away was the best solution to the risk of the entire clan-burrow being destroyed in one of Orbrils 'accidents'). As such Orbril was sent to become apprentice to a master alchemist, (and good friend of his Grans who as it happened was resident fireworks maker for a troupe of travelling entertainers! Master Joglers taught Orbril how to make things which glowed, fizzled, bubbled and sometimes (if he was lucky) exploded with a flashy bang! It was great, Orbril loved it and very much excelled at the craft. But much more intriguing to the curious gnome was the entertainers, the acrobatics and beast tamers and more and more orbril found himself down amongst the performers learning the ropes and becoming a pretty good acrobat in his own right. Staying with the Circus even after Master Joglers had released him from his apprenticeship Orbril soon rose up to become master of his own Troupe – The Grand Circus Maximus. He also became interested in working with wild animals, and from this developed a close affinity with nature and so dedicating himself became a druid to learn its many ways.It was many years later, when finally he returned home, that he learnt that the slavers had been through his homeland. His Gran was dead and half the clan taken as slaves, those few that survived looked at him with bitter eyes – for where had he been when they were left to fight! Vowing to destroy the Slavers and recover what clansmen might still survive he joined a ship and began his journey to Highport…Orbril is a plain enough looking gnome, with mischievous eyes (a rat-bite scar above his left) and a ready smile. He likes to dress in bright colours and enjoys a good joke. He is definitely not a fighter and will avoid conflict as much as possible. If combat is required he relies heavily on ranged combat including his darts, sling and the grenadelike weapons  which in many cases he has made himself - including acid flasks, alchemist fire, tanglefoot bags, oil flasks and molotov cocktails. Only when he has no choice will he call on his Hooked Hammer.
