Dustin, Minotaur Foundling

Dustin was, his adoptive parents think, the son of a caravan master and his wife.  It was hard to tell for sure, but when his adoptive minotaur parents came upon the shattered caravan it was all they could piece together for the toddler.  His adoptive parents were told to just rid of him, but Thera begged her husband Arani to keep the child.  As a blacksmith, he was entitled to pretty much anything he wanted and agreed.  He was distant with the child, but when Dustin seemed interested in blacksmithing, Arani showed him the way.  In time Dustin came to love blacksmithing as much as Arani and worked only to please his adoptive father.  He isn't able to smith everything his "father" can at the age of 17, but he can certainly do some very fine work.  Even the minotaurs of the city have come to appreciate his work.

Dustin is a large, heavily muscled human, with tan skin and black hair.  He speaks minotaur fluently, though he only knows a little High King's Speech.  He takes pride in his work and pride in the fact he pleases his adoptive parents.  He can be found on the east side of the Tsalagi Mountains, always in the accompany of minotaurs.
