Appearance:

Jock is a smallish Dwarf who looks as though he has seen his share of bar fights. He wears a worn leather jerkin, and has a large scar across the top of his head. His beard is short, trimmed to his face, and he's a fairly hairy Dwarf. He carries a heavy belt, a small axe, and a small shield. He looks very strong, and has a mass of scars across his body.

Interaction:

If the players engage in a brawl at a local pub and come out on top, Jock will approach them and ask if he can join them for a drink. He will then start to talk about his adventures and his business. He claims to be an adventurer, a merchant, and a fairly successful one at that. He will reside with the players for a few days, seeking out new adventures and telling what he views as rousing tales.

Background:

Jock has never really been successful at anything. He's always been drawn to heroes and adventure. He has tried to live up to his heroes, but he is just not up to the task. He's at his wits end. His most recent attempt to be an adventurer was to try and track down the missing cousin of a wealthy dwarf. He almost died trying, but instead of admitting defeat, he decided to continue his search. He is close-minded to others, and has a hard time accepting others' viewpoints.

Combat / Skills:

Jock makes for a good warrior, but that's about it. He has no other skills. He is quick to draw his weapon and will do so if challenged. He's fiercely loyal to those he's accepted as his friends.
