Saide is a sturdy dwarf with a no-nonsense aesthetic. She wears form-fitting dark leather armor that is cleverly designed to avoid jingling or catching on stone. Her charcoal-grey hair is kept in a severe, tight bun. She carries an array of slim tools in leather loops across her belt and thighs, and her boots are capped with soft rubber to dampen her footfalls.

I am a creature of habit and precision. I find the chaos of others frustrating, but I enjoy the intellectual challenge of a lock that claims to be pick-proof. I speak only when necessary and always in a calm, measured tone.

Saide was raised in the deep holds where her clan carved the very foundations of the earth. While her brothers were gifted with the hammer, Saide found herself fascinated by the complex mechanisms of the great vault doors and the shifting stone traps designed to keep invaders out. She eventually turned this talent toward the underground networks of the mountain cities, acting as a professional infiltrator for those who needed secrets retrieved without the mess of violence. She operated under a strict professional code, viewing herself more as a specialist than a common thief. Her work was tolerated because she never stole from her own people and often provided the senate with intelligence on external threats. However, when she uncovered evidence of a deep-seated corruption in the trade guilds, she was framed for a crime she didn't commit. Now on the surface, Saide applies her dwarven patience and steady hands to the adventuring life, seeking to maintain her personal sense of order in a world that feels dangerously unrefined.
