Kurbor

A dwarf with an intense passion for blacksmithing. He sometimes takes on apprentices but has quite an elitist attitude towards teaching expecting the absolute best from his students. He once trained Derek who he now sees as a lazy dropout although he blames himself for not being hard enough with Derek (quite the opposite actually). Despite his sometimes unlikable character, he is pure at heart. He just wants to help people achieve their best and sometimes has low self-esteem about his own ability despite his constant production of masterfully crafted pieces.
