MDK
Mikhail Demitri Kalishnakov (M D K)
Background
Dwarf Non-mage played by Michael Scott
Hgt 4'6" Wgt 120lbs PB 19. Eyes green. Hair Blond.
Coming from a desert environment MDK keeps his cheeks, throat and the sides of his head, shaved and plaits what hair and beard he does grow so as to foil anybodies attempts to use them as hand holds.
He wears hardened leather, armour-smithed (Rk 10), from the hide of a magically enhanced polar bear with the skull forming his helm.
Accused of being descended from an Elf after his prowess with a bow and his lack of knowledge about the existence of axe, (let alone how to use one), M.D.K is from a military background, but chose to become an assassin/pest control officer in the warrens under his home city of Salla'm'karr.
Following his mothers example (Katarina Sasha, Overseer at Portal Control) M.D.K swore loyalty to the city rather than the Bachran in whose house he was raised and to whom his father and brothers swore allegiance. This was considered a slap in the face and caused much friction, isolating M.D.K from most of his family.
His father, Alexei Pitor, was the Commander of the Guard for the House of Bachran D'tyhst and died along with M.D.K's two older brothers when the house fell in an attack by the Powers of Light, after being betrayed by rival houses who allowed the Angels to breach the cities defences.
As the sole surviving son MDK was targeted for assassination, but was saved by his allies in "City Hall" escaping into the Warrens beneath the city. With Sella'm'karr besieged and him marked for death by powerful enemies MDK used his mother's connections to smuggle himself out of the city and through the portal to Alusia where, on his mother's advice, he sought out employment at the Guild (803 WK).
M.D.Ks mother and three sisters still reside in Salla'm'karr although, with the war still raging as of the last communiqué, M.D.K is unsure of their safety or even if they still live.
