Rhiannon Warmbrew
Dwarrow Dwarf Shopkeeper
Rhiannon Warmbrew
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Imagine what a dwarf with dwarfism for his species might look like, and you have a good idea of Rhiannon's body shape and size. Often mistaken for a gnome, but with the hardiness and constitution of a dwarf, Rhiannon is deceptively strong and agile despite his diminutive size.
Body Features
Arms, legs and head are slightly out of proportion to the rest of his body, giving a suggestion of the proportions of a gnome, but clearly he is of dwarvish stock.
Facial Features
Overlarge, reddish nose. Sunken eyes.
Identifying Characteristics
Purple, blotchy birthmark upon his head.
Physical quirks
Moves everywhere at an apparent jog out of habit.
Apparel & Accessories
Typically wears dark-red shoes, a brown belt with a gold buckle, orange short pants, and a green tunic. When he does occasionally emerge from his shop, he wears a yellow floppy hat that makes him look markedly more gnomish.
Specialized Equipment
Rhiannon has a set of wooden teeth. He plays, rather poorly, a small wooden flute.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Rhiannon's short stature, even for a dwarf, led to his overprotective mother coddling him. As a result, even as an adult, Rhiannon has never left Highport and has no compunction to do so. He rarely leaves the pawn shop for long and lives his life among the mundane items of the store.
Employment
Rhiannon has worked in The Hidden Treasure Pawn Shoppe, his family business, from a very young age. Now that his mother has passed away, he runs the store on his own.
Mental Trauma
The loss of his beloved mother has hit Rhiannon very hard and, even though she has now been gone for a few years, he has not moved on from her death. He learned the value of customer service from his mother and comes across as helpful and kindly, but loneliness has made him hard-hearted by nature.
Morality & Philosophy
Occasionally a dark, perverted side to Rhiannon's nature will slip out in his interactions with others. Nothing too overt, just an off-color comment that is out of place in the conversation.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
He wishes to find someone to pass on his shop to. Having come to the conclusion that he is unlikely ever to marry and have children, his thoughts have recently turned to thoughts of adopting a local orphan, but he is afraid of the prospect of bringing a child into the house.
Savvies & Ineptitudes
Rhiannon has a great interest in handicrafts and it is rare he cannot find a use for even the most mundane or broken of objects.
Likes & Dislikes
Likes tinkering - which does nothing to help with the impression that he is as much gnome as dwarf.
Virtues & Personality perks
Extremely skilled at keeping his true feelings hidden from customers, he always appears helpful and eager to please when in business mode.
Social
Family Ties
The only family he had was his mother, who passed away six years ago.
Religious Views
Once a day, Rhiannon will venture out to one of the city's many shrines to pay respect to one or other of the gods.
Social Aptitude
When attending to a customer, cheerful and helpful. When "off-duty" rather morose.
Hobbies & Pets
He spends much of his free time in handicrafts, creating acceptable quality items. He has crafted most of his own clothing and furniture. It is serviceable but not of craftsmanlike quality.
Speech
Slightly high pitched voice for a dwarf. Likes to compliment his customers. Will always ask a departing customer to recommend his store to others.
Wealth & Financial state
He has a small life savings of 439 GP in the form of gemstones closeted away underneath a loose floorboard on the upper floor of his shop/home. Other than that he does not lay claim to anything of value until it has remained unclaimed in his shop for the agreed period.
