Bthardik
An eccentric dwarf Spellsmith, he is both a trusted ally to the adventurers and a vital source of magical knowledge. Often seen in deep green robes trimmed with the gold of his university, he is rarely without a book—or three—tucked under his arm. His passion for the pursuit of knowledge surpasses all other concerns.
Balding and grey, his long, braided mustache and beard nearly reach his waist. Behind thick spectacles, his surprisingly vibrant green eyes gleam with curiosity and wisdom.
When adventuring, he adorns himself with a multitude of pendants, charms, and seals—each imbued with protection, guidance, or strength. In the forge, he trades his robes for a heavy leather apron embroidered with arcane symbols along the edges. His gloves are thick and well-worn, and he carefully tucks his beard away from the heat before working the magical metals.
