Here's my character
 
[hider=Treekle Ka'Zath]

 Name: Treekle Ka’zath

Age: Adult (25)

Race: Red Dwarf

Appearance: Standing at the towering height of 3’5”, Treekle has all the typical disproportions of a dwarf from his thick short limbs to his round barrel chest. Hidden underneath his crafty green eyes, rosy red cheeks, and cheery smile is a versatile and strong little man, though he lacks the intimidating aura that most dwarves carry with them, being a much jollier fellow. His head and face are covered in neatly braided red hair, of which he is quite proud and maintains semi-religiously.

	He is garbed in a long white coat and brown trousers with a small red cap on his head, and gloves on his hands. For the sake of the journey Treekle has adapted into a pair of travel boots and a red cloak which matches his cap, along with a large pack to carry his different tools and other necessities.

Role: Engineer/Alchemist.
It is said that there is no matching the advancement and knowledge of the dwarven race in scientific pursuits and Treekle embodies these traits to the letter. His knowhow when it comes to pulleys, levers, and simple machines is unmatched even among the dwarves. This combined with his interest in alchemy and investigating the unknown; not to mention his station in the royal family lends him perfectly to the task of stepping through the portal. To both continue the dwarves never ending search for the golden formula, and represent his people in this new land! 

Bio: Born the thirteenth son to the Dwarf King Vulgrim’s second wife, Treekle never found much companionship in his father or many brothers, half-brothers, and extended family. Hidden away underground, separated from the wider world Treekle spent his early days pouring over books or wandering the wide halls of the dwarf kingdom, searching always for that little bit of extra knowledge. Some of his more adventurous adventures led into the upper world where he learned an all new perspective.

	He was a smart dwarf, but not very wise in the ways of the world, so he stumbled into danger quite often and it nearly killed him again and again. His mother realized this and in order to protect her young son’s life she had a small crossbow outfitted for him and instructed the best archers to give him a few pointers. She had many other sons and much to look after which left her little time to keep the young dwarf close by and safe. And forcing him to remain home or with a guard had proven useless, instead she opted to give him the best opportunity to protect himself. Treekle soon adapted the little bow into a far more dangerous weapon to take on his wanderings, even at the ripe young age of ten. Installing a number of modifications to make it faster, stronger, and more accurate.

	As a son of the king, if not destined to the mantle of kingship, Treekle was nevertheless well educated, it wasn’t long before his sharp mind was discovered by the alchemists and engineers of the court who took it upon themselves to direct that young brain. They focused his intellect towards greater things sparking in Treekle a lifelong love for machines and a new obsession to be the first to discover the golden formula, or the secret to freshly create precious metals. Dwarven alchemy was centralized around this almost fanatical question and Treekle was drawn in, dedicating his life to answering it. Over the years his skills in alchemy and engineering grew, leading too many new discoveries and even a few inventions, yet never did he come close to answering the seemingly unanswerable, until now…

Skills: Any dwarf worth his salt can swing a mattock to kill a man or beast, but Treekle particularly excels at the crossbow when it comes to violence. However his talents in the fields of alchemy and simple machinery far outweighs his usefulness in battle.

	Treekle’s crafty little fingers can mix together strange formulas and create tricky mechanisms to serve his larger purposes, given that he has the time and tools to make them. His book learning, while not preparing him for the wilds of a world, left him with an astounding intellect and a eagerness to learn ever more.

Magic: Treekle possess no mystical talents, investing instead into the realm of machinery and alchemy and tricks. Though, as a dwarf he does possess a slight resistance to magical attacks.

Equipment: Armed with a repeater crossbow and dwarven war mattock, Treekle also carries with him a wide variety of research equipment, with everything from test tubes to a little wooden mallet being intricately packed into his bag.

Other: N/A
