Harrim

Originally from Azuresteel clan, the largest city in the Highpeak mountain range , a young Harrim dreamed of devoting himself to the dwarvish ways of creating great works on the anvil. Unfortunately, despite his best efforts Harrim always suffered extraordinary misfortune in his creative endeavors. Anything he worked on would fall apart in his hands, and whatever he completed would be found to be entirely unusable. Mocked by others for his inability and spiritually crushed by his failures, Harrim became an alcoholic and found himself contemplating suicide. However, he still heard a voice that urged him, and decided to leave his homeland to pursue it. Eventually the search for the source of the voice led him to a gathering of Followers of the Shattering at a ruined temple.

Becoming a convert Harrim wandered the world preaching the word Although he avoided contact with other dwarves Ultimately even they rejected him for reasons he has not shared and over the years he found solace in gardening where he could create something not the strength of a hammerblow but with the tenderness of a twice broken belief where destruction is just part of the cicle. He may have found peace in the arms of Badbiele, but has not found purpose and still carries some of the "teaching of the Shattering" with him to this day.

He has a somewhat ambivalent attitude regarding dwarvish cultural achievements, and confesses that he is still deeply moved by many of the creations of his ancestors despite his belief that those creations will inevitably become dust.

"Abandon hope and embrace the inevitable end." – That's the kind of speech that Harrim's companions must endure. Every. Single. Day
