Tihar "Teel" Knuckledragger
Mother: Eliir, knuckledragger
Father: Kevir, Knuckkledragger
 
Origin: Tihar is a born and breed loudwater, living in the district of sootworks, in a proper run down house, with barely enough space for the three of them. least of all four. His parents migrated to Loudwater before he was born, though they refuse to talk about why they moved, and generally switch topics whenever it came up. They never revealed our family name, always saying that the past is irrelevant, and its the way you live forward that matters. Food was always on the table, though little to no books or proper education could be afforded, leading to Tihar never learning to read properly.
 
Early childhood: As a young hill dwarf with little education there were little choice in the matter. Both his father and mother worked in the The Coked Coal Refinery. The working conditions were treatcherous, and though workers reguarly got themselves injured and mangled, even a few deaths throughout the years, the prospect outside of the factory was even worse. Tihar had to learn from a young age what machinery to avoid, and which hazard to be aware of. Luckily a quick reflex saved him from more than one entanglement into hazardous machinery.
 
Late teens: it was in this factory here that he would meet up with "Elizabeth "lizz", a human, and "Kurtz" , who also worked in the same shift as he did. Together they were a trio, who hang out in between shifts, and forming a tight friendship. Though Lizz and Kurtz also had other friends, which he did not, leading to some downtime where he would get himself into trouble. with some of the other unsavory youths. Scrapping in between each other happened on regular occasion, and some times the older workers would tip on who would win. Bruises, a bloody lip and even a broken finger or two would usually be the results of these endeavors, though a couple of wins from time to time would ensure about a months wage of goods if lucky. Though it was best to not inquire about their origin. His other two friends knew of these activities, and they tried their best to talk him out of it, but to little awail.
 
Young adult: As they grew up (the trio is now 18 years old), Lizz had learnt to read through her other friends and their connections, and Kurtz had started to slowly invest some of his hard earned money into a business. They still worked the same shift, but saw each other at a less frequent rate after workhours.
 
It was however when they were all working a late night shift, that a sudden and catastrophic accident happened on the factory floor. His parents worked at their regular station, which they knew in and out, and the risk associated with their work was considered to be low. Yet one day something catastrophic happened, and the machinery exploded. Both his parents were killed, and Lizz was severely wounded. The local doctors were unable to help her, and her condition though stable, her wounds were still severe, and the future seemed bleak.
 
Unable to afford the rent on the house, it had to be sold. Lizz, Tihar and Kurtz decided that it was best if they stuck together, and gathered enough money for a single large room. There Lizz could stay and recoup, since hospital was too expensive, and Kurtz could use the room for his buisiness as practical as that was.
 
Desperate to earn money, he spread the word around the factory that he needed money, and was willing to go far in order to earn it. This resulted in him taking on the occasional side husstle of beating down fellow factory workers who were trying to strike and/or orgainzing themselves into unions. Though this earn him some money, it left him absolutely despised on the factory floor, and work got so perilous for him due to sabotaging, that he barely survived when a sabotaged piece of machinery exploded as he was working on it. Still unable to quit the factory due to the stable but paltry wage, Tihar looked for other opportunities, and found it in The Iron Ledger, where brutal pit fights would occur on a regular intervall.
 
 
Through these endavours, more coin would be earned, though in some fights the opposing side barely survived the fight. Tihar quickly realized that continuing like this would get others killed, and the coin was not just worth it. One day before a match, he quickly fought the opponent and won, before running away with the money he had earned.
 
It was at that time that he was contacted by Rakish, who were interested in the accident which happened at the Coacked Coal Refinery, hinting that he may find a way to heal Lizz. We were supposed to meet up in two weeks, yet those two weeks passed by, and nothing was heard from him. It was then that Tihar decided to look for him.
