**Backstory**
Avelia was originally the daughter of a merchant king out of the Imperial City of Avalad, though she hardly remembers who or what her original father was. Only bits and fragments remained since the her father was ambushed by orcs on the way to Runba's Deep. Surviving by hiding in a barrel of mackerel, though when she heard voices Avelia had rolled out of the barrel reeking of fish. Finding herself before a band of Dwarf warriors returning home. One of them a general, General Belgek Grimbrand. Belgek was no stranger to humans, but he didn't expect to see the girl. When he tried to inspect the Avelia for any wounds, she out right punched him. Everyone fell silent but the General couldn't help to start laughing and everyone else started to also.

Taking her in as a ward of sorts since he had no daughters of his own or sons for that matter. Proclaiming her as his child, teaching all aspects of the dwarvern culture. Training her not only as a warrior but also taking the knack for the rifle that she favored highly, along with anything of an explosive charge. Though it wasn't enough she had to make her own, over a few months she produced a schematic for would be the greatest rifle built or at least to her way of thinking. A massive weapon with a single shot barrel and then a secondary one under it just to blast a hole in things, with dragons teeth surrounding the two barrels.

Belgek was sent off to ward of an incursion but due to a lack of evidence the general had been slain, though many in the kingdom think it was just a ploy to get rid of Belgek since he denied to wed Avelia the crowned prince. No hard feelings were between the fathers but the prince was insulted and so many think the general's death was just a ploy to get rid of him. Now on her own she did fine but again the crown prince asked for her hand in marriage in her typical fashion she out right punched him. Breaking his nose along two of her fingers. The ordeal was blown out of proportion by prince and his guard and was sparred the death penalty for assaulting royalty and in the name of her father she was banished. Taking a few belongings looked back at her home one last time and left. Though she vows to find out the truth and give the prince his just deserts.

(Blackpowder has all the same negative effects as it does in reality, but with additive in Avelia's powder if the powder is used when wet it could create a tremendous backfire because it binds the compound causing it to liquify and amplifying the power.)
