PARTY MEMBERS AND THEIR CONNECTIONS TO ONE ANOTHER

Lord Rogar Stoneaxe

- Knows everyone
- Leader of Clan Stoneaxe and the Expedition
- Oath sworn to his followers


Baldin Stonecrusher Paladin (Moradin)

- Oathsworn to Lord Rogar Stoneaxe

Braelig Stonehammer Forge Cleric

- Sworn to service under Lord Rogar as a knight
- Distant cousin to Kroland "Rocksinger", whose clan claim to be the true ancestors of the Stonesinger clan
- Cousin to Baldin and Braelig, though perhaps far-removed in the annals of the root 'Stone' clan



Bugrem Stonesinger Ranger

- Knows

Eusebia Hearthwatcher Axegrinder Cleric

- Known by everyone through the temple

Flint GoldHelm Artificer

- Knows

Gillifian Bristlebeard Fighter

- Knows

Grenda Clawhammer Artificer

- Known as an archaeologist


Joskar Dunbeard Caver (Ranger)

- Cousin of Lyesri Shadowforge
- Knows that Lyesri has become darker and more withdrawn
- Loner.  He gets along with people, mostly, he's friendly, and seems to be a bit of an optimist (which can be annoying), but he does not stay around long, and he sometimes gets in trouble for not remembering traditions and customs.  This is because he spends so much time wandering underground to find veins of ore and gemstone deposits.
- He is the grandson of the oldest clan elder of Dunbeard, one who fought for one of the lesser kings.  Like so many noble families, the clan has lost wealth, prestige, and political power.
- He has been assigned by the elders of his clan to find and access their old mines, if posssible.


Kildrak Fireforge To Be Decided

- Knows

Kroland 'Ironleg' Rocksinger Fighter

- Kroland is known for being a veteran officer, the ironleg epithet because of martial and general stubborness and as a wepaonsmaster that trains new recruits and drills the newer warriors

Lyesri Shadowforge Sorcerer

- Cousin of Joskar Dunbeard

Reizzok Stoneaxe Cleric

- Knows

Toramar Greymane Ranger

- Knows

Joskar, you can be Lyesri's cousin.

Youo know that shes always had an interest in the arcane, but a few years back something happened that changed her, made her withdraw and a little darker. She also gained power quickly

Baldin is oathsworn to Lord Rogar Stoneaxe for the duration of the expedition and to the rightful heir, whoever it might be, for life. He is happy to count any other party members as relatives if they so desire.

Eusebia probably knows all of them or has at least heard of them all through the temple.

Grenda Clawhammer is a name known by many, but a person well known by few.  She has spent at least the last decade digging through ruins and ancient cities to find information about the lost culture of the Dwarves.  It is unclear what percentage of the information being used by this expedition she is personally responsible for discovering but she is part of the team that has been bringing back such clues for far longer than most realized it was even happening.

Bugrem is:
- Sworn to service under Lord Rogar as a knight
- Distant cousin to Kroland "Rocksinger", whose clan claim to be the true ancestors of the Stonesinger clan
- Cousin to Baldin and Braelig, though perhaps far-removed in the annals of the root 'Stone' clan (shout, either of you, if you prefer not)

Bugrem could eaily be:
- Well-known to Joskar or Toramar, through training or missions
- Ex-hireling of Grenda, in one of her underground forays
- Flock to one of the Clerics, though his clan favours Mya and Berronar, he is a follower of Dumathoin

Many might have heard the epithet 'Ironleg' and any involved in martial affairs would very likely know Kroland as he is often the first to volunteer for action and always leads from the front. He is very approachable and cheerful in general dispite his gruff and stern appearance and when not fighting is always busy helping out at a smithy or training younger warriors in weapons fighitng and tactical drills.

It seems very likely that his family is somehow related to and possibly were rivals with Bugrem Stonesinger's family.

Likely knows Gilifian Bristlebeard.

Will have very likely served under Lord Rogar Stoneaxe as an officer in the army and will have stuck close by since the disaster took place.

It would make sense that Baldin Stone Hammer and Kroland knew each other fairly well as they seem to have close goals and seem like the charge into battle without hesitation types.  happy to discuss specifics or other thoughts with anyone else as well.

Because of his inexperience, Toarmar is probably an unknown quantity. At 48 years old, he is technically still a child. If anyone is similarly young, they might be childhood friends.

People have probably heard of his mother and grandfather though. His mother, Drika Greymane, is probably one of the most famous dwarven underdark rangers still working today. His grandfather, Bresik Greymane, is retired now, but is the subject of many tales of adventure and valor that are told around the fire to inspire young dwarves. If Bugrem and Joskar have been working as rangers for awhile, they probably know the Greymane name and might even have worked with Toramar's mother.

In reply to Toramar Greymane (msg # 9):

How much are you wanting to riff on the inexperience angle? It makes sense that Bugrem knows your mother, but Lord Rogar might have 'suggested' that Bugrem mentors Toramar, partly for the experience and partly as an attempt to keep Bugrem from wandering off on some kind of death quest

In reply to Bugrem Stonesinger (msg # 10):

I think that works really well. I want to lean in to the inexperience as the main starting point for my character arc.

In reply to Bugrem Stonesinger (msg # 12):

Reizzok is a Stoneaxe, so pretty much anyone who's lived/served/been around them could have come into contact with Reizzok either in the training grounds for fighting or the forges for smithing work (or really any other tool)

Burgrem - since you were raised partly in Stoneaxe Clan, it would make sense that you and Reizzok are probably pretty familiar with each other. Weapon crafting for him, weapon training alongside him. Reizzok is proficient in survival as well (assuming Burgrem is too as ranger!) so we could have done some survival training with each other.

Kroland - you and Reizzok would definitely know each other if you've been serving with Clan Stoneaxe for this long. Maybe you train up the younger dwarves for part of their martial training, so you'd have been a sort of weapons master to Reizzok?

In reply to Reizzok Stoneaxe (msg # 13):

Definitely makes sense - weapons training and survival from expeditions locally. Bugrem has trained as a stonemason, with Jothoun providing scraps of familial lore since that is one thing the Stonesingers were known for, rather than having any affinity with Forge or smithcraft
