Marsinda Goldspinner

The High Master of Hammerfast and the leader of the Trade Guild is a tough, elderly dwarf who refuses to suffer fools. She speaks in a rapid-fire, direct manner, and she believes in action over words. In Marsinda's eyes, a good plan executed today is far better than a perfect plan implemented tomorrow.   Marsinda is popular among the common folk of Hammerfast and with many of the important movers and shakers in town. The dwarves appreciate her candor and aggressive bearing, and the non- dwarves see her as a patron of sorts. Marsinda cares little for petty grievances. She has half seriously stated that she would let an army of trolls camp in town if it was in the town's best interest. Marsinda is the matriarch of the powerful Goldspinner clan, including her younger brother Norrinir Goldspinner, Varda Goldspinner the owner of the Coach and Pony Inn, and Ranklo Goldspinner, the owner of the Trade Bank.   Marsinda's hair is light brown, and she dresses in regal purple and sports a small fortune in jewelry. Her many admirers refer to her as the Lady of Gold; her enemies sarcastically refer to her as the Queen.
