==A Dwarven Earthmage==
Played by Michael Parkinson, '''Thornie''' is the nickname of a youngster of the '''Dwarven''' [[AsBoldAsStone Clan]] from '''Gunir's Hope'''. His first adventure was in Autumn 822.

Technically, Thornie's full name is '''Thorncliff''', 7th (& youngest) child of '''Hildebrand''', son of '''Dravon''' the Wise, son of '''Aidon the Swift''' (who was also called ''Aidon the Rash'' and Aidon the Bloody Lucky). 

Thornie's only sister is Diana (called '''Die''', an Alchemist).  His elder brothers (from ancient to youngest) are  Wilfred, Archie, Perceval, Slimy Shit, Eddich (called Dick for short) ... Also, technically, Slimy Shit's ''official'' name is Rashleigh (after the way he behaves?).He was directly responsible for an attack on one uncle's business, and has variously compromised or embarrassed  other relatives or family friends. Mostly "for kicks", apparently. Unfortunately no-one actually kicked him.   

Thornie is a so-called '''pacifistic''' Earthmage ... because if one is not permitted to ritually sacrifice just one ''truly'' bestial brother, what's the point of sacrificing ACTUAL Beasts?
