Xylon Stratis
Xylon Stratis was born in the city of Teva, on the Alsonan eastern border. Having essentially lived in the mines as a worker from childhood on, he eventually was elevated to overseer of the largest mine belonging to the Apps Mining Company in the town. He was the first to employ the growing number of dwarven refugees pouring in across the borders from their fallen mountain holds. He spent ample time learning from their mining and oversight techniques, aiding in the profitability of the mines as they developed. He was also the first human to realize that the trickle of dwarves was slowly becoming a torrent. His policies eventually set the tone for the Apps Mining Company's tolerance and embracing of dwarven miners, while the Crysos Mining Company simply enslaved them through indentured servitude. Xylon's efforts helped to prevent a similar uprising to the Wingo War in Teva, but he has not been appreciated for his efforts. He recently has been shuffled aside and forced to retire as the attitude of the monarchy has taken a large shift against dwarves wherever they may be. He is now suffering from a variety of mining related diseases, but thankfully he continues his life off of a pension from his former employers.
