Role

Chapter 1

Durmicke was your typical dwarf. He was married to his dwarf
sweetheart, Bella, and they had one child, his son, Durmichen.
Durmicke was an apprentice smith, learning to forge and temper
weapons and armor. He enjoyed the meals his wife cooked and sung
dwarven songs to his son.

They lived in a small dwarf village outside of Akan. It was a peaceful
place. But with most stories about Heroes, tragedy always seems to
come. It would be no different for Durmicke.

One day a mysterious illness broke out in the village. Almost
everyone came down with the sickness. Durmicke however did not.
He had always been vigorous, able to fight off diseases and quickly
heal from scrapes and injuries faster then most dwarfs. The village at
the time did not have a healer, as their last one had just moved to Akan.

Durmicke agreed with the Elder of the village to set out to get help.
Packing his bags, Durmicke hastened himself to Akan. The trip took a
few days and a little longer on the way back with help in toe. But it
was too late. This plague grew out of control, and all in the village
were dead, leaving Durmicke as the solo survivor.

During the days to lay the dead to rest, Durmicke swore he would find
a way to learn how to heal and cure sickness.
