Appearance
A sturdy hill dwarf with a braided copper beard threaded with blue prayer beads, weathered tan skin, and bright amber eyes that seem to miss nothing. He wears polished scale mail over a faded cream tabard marked with a silver lantern, and carries a heavy shield etched with healing runes. His hands are calloused from labor and careful work, not battle, though both have left their marks.
Mannerisms
He pauses before every meal to touch two fingers to his holy symbol. When anxious, he quietly counts heartbeats under his breath, as if checking that the world still has time to be saved.
Personality
Patient, practical, and stubbornly kind. He speaks with grave certainty, but his humor surfaces in dry little remarks when tension grows too sharp.
Ideals
Mercy. Strength should be used to shield the weak, not to dominate them. A life saved is a debt repaid to the world.
Bonds
He keeps a shard of the roof beam that killed his sister, wrapped in clean linen, and has promised to build a memorial chapel where her name will not be forgotten. He will protect any healer, priest, or roadside medic who serves the helpless without asking what they can pay.
Flaws
He mistakes urgency for righteousness and can become overbearing when others refuse aid he thinks they clearly need. He finds it difficult to forgive leaders who waste lives for pride, and he quietly judges himself even more harshly than he judges them.
Quirks
Background
Brother Tolen Stonevein was raised in a cliffside hold where stonecutters sang hymns to keep time with their hammers. He was not the strongest miner, nor the quickest mason, but he had a gift for tending broken hands, split brows, and weary spirits. When a roof collapse took his younger sister and half a work crew, Tolen spent three nights at the shrine floor, praying not for vengeance, but for the strength to keep such grief from hollowing out the rest of the hold. On the fourth morning, he rose certain that the gods had answered him with a simple command, mend what can be mended. He entered the clergy as an acolyte of the Lantern Mother, serving in infirmaries, burying the dead with dignity, and escorting pilgrims through dangerous passes. Over time he learned that mercy is not softness, it is discipline. Now he travels where faith and suffering meet, carrying medicine, blessings, and an iron conviction that no life should be treated as disposable. He is as comfortable beside the sickbed as he is in a shield wall, and he believes the sacred duty of a healer is not to avoid the wounds of the world, but to stand in front of them until the hurt can be eased.
