Wulric Ironhand

Wulric Ironhand was raised by a family of miners, and grew up to work in the same trade. He is a dwarf in his early thirties, with a short, but thick beard and a receding hairline. While he was a happy child, he became much more gruff and standoffish as he grew up and gained more responsibility. He does tend to open up when he gets close to someone, though. Poor for most of his life, he jumped at the opportunity as soon as he heard about the newly discovered mythril strains. One of the first people to arrive, he passed straight through the growing settlement of Mythrite. He had spent all of his money on supplies and safe passage to the mountain, so he had no reason to stay. Soon after his arrival, Ironhand struck gold, so to speak. He had dug a small tunnel that had so much mythril that the light from his lantern reflected through the entire cave. He was thrilled, but had to keep it a secret. He was afraid that other miners would find his cave before he could dig it out, or that someone would rob him of his stash before he could sell it. Instead of waiting all season, he took two days to get as much mythril as he could carry, and took the last transport back to civilization before the area became untravellable. As soon as he arrived, he unladed his entire stash of Mythril. It turned out that he had mined enough to earn him a fortune. Having never known wealth like that, he was quite reckless with his spending and went bankrupt within a year. As soon as the weather cleared up, he decided to return to the mountain to regain his fortune. When he saw how much the town had grown, he began to realize that it may be much harder than it was the first time around.
