Re: The Fall of Medemesh

Name - Brynmor Glyn Cledwyn
Age - 20
Occupation - Forester
Height - 5,5 (about average for the times)
Possesions - As Follows
On Person
Hand Axe - Small single handed axe with single blade end, followed by a flat metal surface on its opposite side. Making a versatile tool and weapon.
Small hunting bow - Lacking in any real power or range than larger bows, but easier to carry and sufficant enough for bringing down small to medium sized game. Though lacks any real combat use.
Wood cutting Axe - Exactly as it says a larger axe head attached to longer wooden shafted handle, allowing for a larger arc of swing and more power behind them. Making it ideal for cutting down tree's or chopping wood piles.
Satchel - For carrying supplies around
Eating Dagger - Small dagger used in the same way a fork and knife is used today, though in a less elegant manner.

Present at home/hut

Lathe and tools - Used for making legs for tables, chairs etc, or even to crafting some basic cups.
Metal Saw - Self explanitory
Carving Knife - Self explanitory
Cooking pots etc - Self Explanitory
Planting equitment - For the purpose of planting sapling tree's etc
General living supplies and sleeping area

Apperance -

Wearing worn simple clothing, partialy repaired by his own hands or at the hands of the semstres in town. Covering up his slightly bulky looking frame despite his lack of height, carrying broad shoulders. Scruffy hair and sun tanned skinned giving him a rough overall image, distinguishing him as a worker and little else.

History -
Like his father and grandfather before that and theirs before that, Brynmor followed in the family tradition and since he could walk and hold a small axe has been working in the forest living of the land, and making simple wares to sell in the town markets to make a living. Living in a small but well built hut not far from the nearest town, situated near a river. The source of his water and a place to bathe, getting his food from hunting small game in the forest with bow and trap.

since the years after his parents death Brynmor has carried on living in this fashion without complaints, knowing little other of any other life. Due to his unbringing he never learn't to read or write since there was always more work to do, always more wood to cut and carve. Making him not the weakest of men in a brawl or tussle which has lead him into some trouble in the past. Leading a mostly solitary life besides the odd trip into town, or lost or wandering passers by into the forest. The tole of it weighing wearly on his heart for he knows one day he will have to find a women to wed to carry on the family life, bit lacking in any fine social gracesses enough to look no more than a savage to the richer upperclass, and a begger to most others.

ooc - my limited attempt at portayng somone who basiicly spends most of his time in the woods working, and lacks any real social or knowledge based education as a result.
