Grym Hammersmith
Mourngrym Hammersmith (a.k.a. Grym)
This Dwarven Gearsmith, from the nation of Nagar, is a longtime friend of Aleksandr and was stationed at Syll during the fateful Gear Revolution. His inventions are groundbreaking (sometimes literally) and he was one of the first Gearsmiths to mix magic and technology. He is short, as is his entire race, at 4'3" but weighing almost 150 lbs. He is good with his hammer and can make almost anything with gears and enough time, yet his harsh temper tends to set most people off. His full given name is Mourngyrm but refuses to use it. He is often dressed in leathers covered with hooks and pockets, sporting his newest inventions and a fine set of goggles. He has long grey hair and an even longer beard with deep black eyes and a nasty habit of swearing, and at over one hundred and twenty years old, he had a lot to swear about.
Excerpt from the Gear Revolution
He sighed and shook his head, seeing his apprentices dragging the Breather up with a cable. "Fine, we'll take the Thopter, but only to the square. If they see it land they might sense the magic in it and then we'll have some explaining to do." He walked with her and grabbed another chain, this one thicker than the first. He used two hands and his muscles bulged, but the chain came down and the massive plates in the back opened up revealing the Thopter. "We'll walk from the square to Crystalspear castle after we land.
"If we land you mean."
"We've only crashed once."
"You've only crashed once you mean." Raervyn always reminded him of that. It wasn't her fault.
"Shut it!"
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Like most dwarves, Grym is built stocky and solid. A life at the forge has given him incredible upper body strength and when he swings his fists or his hammer it can be devastating. His endurance is quite good as well, though running is a slight problem over long distances.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Born in the cavern city of Falgram, Grym was raised in the heat of the forge. He apprenticed young and soared at making things better by coming up with ideas that were unconventional. He went to Anor to attend the School of Gears and graduated with honors, coming back to Nagar and joining the Gearsmith guild. He met Aleksandr in Nagar in 746 and the two have been good friends ever since.
Education
Degree of Engineering from Mystvale Institute of Learning in Everloomr
Accomplishments & Achievements
Credited as one of the inventors of the Thopter 880. This achievement is profound as it is the first successful mix of magic and technology.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Like most Gearsmiths, Grym desires to reach the upper levels of his guild and craft. His dream is to someday become the Highsmith and rule Nagar. His dreams are to open the nation to human and other races who wish to invent, instead of the strict testing that limits these other races entrance to the guild.
