Basics of Growing Up: [Clan Stonefell of the Stormfront Fastness] Clan Stonefell, in the Hareaver Clashes, fought against the pirate and scavenger forces that came ashore. It seems like the humans had a short memory of how the dwarves of that region had gained their name. They were reminded when their forces were crushed under an avalanche started by the dwarves. Duck’s blood lust aberration became apparent then – he gleefully slew the survivors. He fought for years against the Hareaver’s of Scrape, accumulating many kills and became decent warrior. His recklessness even got him onto a reaver boat in the tidal shoals during a counter attack – he was surrounded by water before he knew what was going on. His bloodlust eventually caused him to be forced from his clan, and seek employment in the Merchant Cities of the South.

What are they known for > Duck is know for his ability to take punishment and not go down, He is the center of a charge, and a bulwark against a line collapsing. In battle, his taunts often engage more than one opponent; He tangles up enemies while his friends pick them off from flanking. If he sees one of his companions fall though, he is known to sometimes become quite reckless. His loyalty to the company is absolute – it is his only home.
After going unconscious in the battle against the shadows of Ashfall, Duck hears the Storm Music of the Bronzemen. His mind, in the throws of dying, is forever twisted. When he awakes, he is not Duck. The fury of the storm pounds in his veins, and the reckless abandon of the lightning drives him. A mad rushing is in his ears and he wakes. Tearing off his bandages, howls like a demon. Huff thinks it is a game, and joins him howling. Duck grabs his axe and were it not for the sheer bulk of his opponent, he would have killed him. Staring in disbelief, Huff, axe in his side, tears it out of the hands of Duck and staggers back, blood gouting out of him. There is no time, the company reacts to the hostile threat and Duck is cut down as he goes for the magical gauntlets that Billy Boy is carrying. He dies on the end of a few weapons – there is no single blow that fells him. Whatever madness drove him, the Blackwell Squad cannot fathom. So ends Duck, Blackwell until death.
