Character: Ferid, Son of Gune

Mentioned a few times in my stories, Ferid's biggest contribution is being Guthlaf's father. An average sized dwarf his black hair is now streaked with gray as he reaches his fourth century. Like all dwarves his hair and beard are studded with knick-knacks and beads. There is a small fortune in gems in his beard alone.

Ferid is a master metalsmith crafting axes and fine chainmail which is heavy duty but light weight. Ferid makes most of the armor for the King's men and takes pride in his work. He is frustrated with his youngest, Guthlaf, but figures he'll work through his impulses in a few decades.

If your characters are dwarves, he will most likely be the person to fit their armor if they are in the dwarven capital. The only time he leaves the island is to travel to Merryweather to bargain for supplies he can not find on the islands. Players might meet him during this time and could even commission some armor if they had enough money and don't some how insult good Ferid.
