Mental characteristics
Personal history
Originally born on Hawk Island into a long line of smiths, Andreas used the skills of his trade to avoid menial enslavement by the pawns of House Oakenshield. With his freedom intact, he departed for the lands of his rightful lord, Sylas Fenheart, and took up residence and business in the new city of Aynor.
Education
Apprenticeship under his father in the trade of blacksmithing
Employment
Blacksmith, owner and operator of the Hawk's Talons smithy in Aynor
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Andreas takes great pride in the quality of his craft, which stems from a long family history of smithing. Because of the injustices wrecked by House Oakenshield upon Hawk Island following their takeover, he hates anything that supports their cause. He also has family in Emril, so the destruction of that town by the Silvershields has made him vengeful towards all who follow Lord Oakenshield.
