Brom Blackstone

Brom Blackstone is a jovial dwarf with a heart as stout as his figure and a reputation that stretches across the forgotten ruins and hidden caverns of Faerûn. Born into a clan of miners deep within the Sword Mountains, Brom always had a fascination not just with the precious metals his kin unearthed, but with the strange, ancient relics that would sometimes emerge from the earth’s depths. As a young dwarf, he would sneak off to explore forgotten tunnels, hoping to uncover treasures that told stories of a time long past. Over the years, his curiosity led him far from the comfort of his mountain home, as he became a relic hunter—seeking out magical artifacts, lost tomes, and enchanted weapons that held forgotten powers. His broad shoulders, weathered hands, and twinkling blue eyes reflect a life spent in dangerous ruins and endless negotiations, but his hearty laugh and warm demeanor keep him grounded as a friend to all who enjoy a good story.
Brom’s cart is as much a reflection of his personality as his tales. The sturdy wooden structure, reinforced with iron bands, creaks under the weight of history itself, brimming with relics that he has collected over his decades of exploration. Enchanted lanterns cast a warm glow on the polished but battered wood, illuminating the artifacts within—ancient weapons, mysterious amulets, and dusty tomes with brittle pages filled with long-lost knowledge. Each item comes with a story, which Brom is more than happy to share, often in exchange for a good drink or an even better piece of gossip. Though he enjoys the bustling marketplaces and the excitement of new discoveries, Brom knows the value of his treasures, and behind his friendly grin lies the sharp mind of a trader who can spot a good deal—or a con—from miles away.
The Owl Friends met Brom at the The Shadowed Bazaar on 18 Kythorn 1491 DR. Nobody purchased a relic from Brom, though he may yet show up again.
