Ogham Hammerhand

Appearance
Ogham Hammerhand is typical for dwarves - short, stout, and hairy. The dwarf 's long, black hair hung behind his head where it was tied into a single pony-tail and hung well past his shoulders. Ogham's beard hung in several thick braids, two of them ornamented with silver clasps to bind them near the ends and simple silver rings down the length. His mouth was barely visible beneath all that hair, and drinking would typically leave him with a foamy beard.

Beneath the heavy armor he was typically found in, the dwarf had broad shoulders and a stout frame. A powerful and muscular body was hidden beneath the layers of leather and mail, showing that this dwarf was in peak physical condition with a form made for war. Scars were scattered across his body in various spots.

History
Ogham Hammerhand, sometimes known as Ham-Ham, was a former noble in a prominent dwarven house. The Hammerhand house was known in their province to be both honorable and noble, though not ambitious enough to seek any real power for themselves over the people. They were the epitome of a righteous and noble house that served its people first and foremost. Ogham, however, was second born of the family and was not destined to lead the house.

Unlike the rest of his family, however, Ogham suffered from jealousy at times and living in the constant shadow of his elder brother had gotten the best of him. In one of Ogham's fits of jealousy after a particularly long night of drinking, Ogham got into a fight with his elder brother and murdered him. Given the status of the family and his history of lawfulness and philanthropy, Ogham was sentenced to a exiled under threat of execution if he ever attempted to return.

Ogham eventually found himself in the ass end of the world, trying to redeem himself in action in the West Marches.
