Absol Tullman IV

Lord Absol Tullman, IV

The ancient and noble Tullman clan was one of the first great dwarven families to inhabit Starstone Isle, and has long had an influence upon the city of Absalom, even if most of its members live outside its walls among their kin in the coastal enclave of Galizhur. One of Absalom’s most honored long-time Tullman inhabitants is Lord Absol IV, a venerable old architect and stonemason who is a direct descendant of ancestors who built many of the city’s fortifications in ancient days. Now more than a century into retirement, Lord Absol has lived in the city longer than only a small handful of others (most of whom are undead). Next year, he turns 400, a much-anticipated event in Absalom’s dwarf community, as the wily old Absol has lived far longer than anyone had ever expected. The Temple of Torag is planning a huge parade, and has already negotiated with the Grand Council to present the aged artisan with a ceremonial key to the city on the grand day. For now, the mostly deaf and increasingly impatient old dwarf lives out the remainder of his days at Magpie Manor, in the Petal District, where he is a minor celebrity. Dwarf admirers and students of architecture and stonework visit him to consult or simply to chat about the old days nearly around the clock. It’s said that Lord Absol has committed the plans to most of Absalom’s fortifications to memory, but his recall fades with age, and those who have attempted to trick him into revealing some forgotten tunnel or secret door that bypasses the city’s security find his inability to concentrate on a single subject for more than a few moments a significant barrier to success.
