Morak

Physical Description: Male Dwarf. Dark red hair, curly beard, blue eyes, weathered complexion. His helmet has large white goat horns painted on the side.

Background: Jovial and artistic, Morak is the eldest son of a prominent leader in his clan.

He fought well in several skirmishes against the Orcs, sometimes leading a squad of his father's troops.
