Murphy
Murphy made a brief appearance an Ears of the City spell that Connie Furr cast on the Poor Commoner District level of the city, while she searched for information surrounding House Stargazer, hoping to discover what rumours circulated about them on the lower levels. She discovered that, in the Plebian taverns, Vizier Leopold Stargazer is sometimes gossiped about by the dwarves who worked alongside him before he was promoted to the Noble Court. Murphy seems to be a particularly enthusiastic gossip-boaster, who flaunts his association with the now-famous Stargazer:
“Yes, seemed really out of the blue when the Company backed him for being the new Vizier. There was a lot of Company interested in one of the last digs he went on. I dunno, but I reckon there must have been some deal making behind the scenes there. Maybe he found something they didn’t want found. I dunno.”
He was cut off by the Bugbear bartender, who chastised him for boasting and insisted that Murphy pay for his own damn beer.
Physical Description
Apparel & Accessories
Murphy attends the tavern straight from his excavation work, where he can be seen wearing his workboots, workman’s vest and Dwarven mining helmet, all with a light coating of grime and debris.
Mental characteristics
Employment
Murphy is an excavator for archeological digs deep in the city. Dwarves are often hired by archaeological expeditions as excavators because they’re good with stone structures. They ensure the digs don’t bring the entire city crashing down. When Murphy was younger, he worked with Scorpio and Leopold Stargazer (before the latter was made a Vizier).
