Sorry this is a bit messy. I read over the History in the first post. I've got some questions. The I've moved into a bulleted outline of a backstory, and some specific questions.
And a bit of trivia, in the Eberron/Artificer Unearthed Archana (UA), there was another sub-class of Artificers - Archivist (think a magical programmer), responsible for creating the Warforged on Eberron. The sub-class didn't make it into the official version. General History Questions:
Considerations:
Backstory Development. This is just a bulleted outline. Once I've got the Outline finalized, I work out turning it into a narrative.
Specific Bits and Pieces

My application For Lizzy is Complete.
It occurs to me that the party is already formed so details about how she meets the dwarves are unwritten. She is a refugee wandering aimlessly so she can be placed wherever the party is now. EDIT: I believe there is a Goblin connected to the party, if he is from Rockfall that could be helpful to explain a connection. Last edited by JohnStone; Feb 4th, 2023 at 08:32 AM. |

Another option for a connection is i could be Orsik's newfound apprentice.
Also I added a picture of Lizzy's version of a dwarf for disguise self if needed. |

I suspect that I'm overdoing it for an application. However, I'm having a great time fleshing out the character and delving into the rich world you've created. Feel free to set a word/paragraph limit on my application and I'll move the overflow into a Google Doc somewhere.
More Questions/Assumptions
Dwarven Social Structures
Characters
Jalatin(s) Backstory Siduna was past her child-birthing years. However, the Thunder Blessing gave her the nickname - thrice-blessed. She was blessed to give birth again, she was blessed with twins, and she was blessed with a daughter. Siduna tried to ensure that both her newborns were loved and treated equally. The reality was that much of the attention was showered upon the daughter - Nondraehilda or Hilda. So, Jalatin (Jal) was frequently in the background as the adults bombarded Hilda with attention. No one was sure what mixture of nature and nurture caused it, but the two children - Hilda and Jal - embraced the situation. Hilda was an extrovert, engaging with people, while Jal was an introvert. Far more interested in things than people. Their testing at age eight gave proof of their diverse natures. Hilda was sent to be trained as a clerk and merchant, destined to take over Guild Battleforged. Jal's test revealed that he had a talent for artificing. He was sent off to be trained as an Artificer. The twins completed their training and returned to their mother's guild for more training. Hilda fit well into Dwarven society at Lawton. She had multiple Dwarven suitors and was heir designate to Battleforged. In contrast, Jal did not fit in well with Dwarven society. Jal had a natural bent for creativity and invention that was at odds with the traditionalists. Jal was fascinated with the new and different - weapons, armor, and tactics. In particular, firearms captivated Jal. The first battle of Lawton was a traumatic event for Jal and all Dwarves. Jal was part of the Lawton Militia, and while not initially a combatant, he was pressed into combat as the battle became dire. Additionally, Jal lost multiple parents and siblings in the battle. Jal did not join Balen's Clan or the eventual crusade. He stayed at Lawton, but scarred by the events of the first battle, Jal threw himself into his work - finding magic and technology to make Dwarves more effective in combat. War returned to Jal at Lawson Vale again as the Crusade and its allies met the Warragh. The battle was dominated by the colossal construct created by the Warragh and only destroyed by Balen and Raven. While most were terrified of the Construct, Jal was fascinated by the construct. He has spent the past ten years researching and acquiring parts. After the battle of Lawton Vale, Jal scavenged the ruins of the giant construct for insights into how to create one and parts that might aid in crafting a construct. Jal completed constructing a smaller construct - Sidroki (Sid) Steel forged. However, Jal has realized that his latest creation needs to be tempered in the fires of conflict. Sidroki's Backstory

Clans vary from 200 to a few thousand in total. Lawton has 5 resident clans one of which is Goliath and a total population around 8000. Guilds exist. The Masons Guild is the largest with members in all clans. They are cross Clan organisations like churches.
The Battleforged are more likely to be major family within Lawton who are powerful within the Clan [leader is an Elder] and also within the Armourers Guild. Hope that helps but it does not materially change the background you have worked up. |

Just wanted to mention lizzy is still here. I assume her backstory was good enough. However the build does not require Kobald (its custom lineage) so if you want a gloomstaker but would rather a dwarf im willing to work on it.
