Brunna Stoneheart
Veteran Forewoman
Brunna Stoneheart
Species
Dwarf
Appearance
Brunna is a broad-shouldered dwarf with the compact power of a quarry ram. Her skin is roughened by years of dust, cold tunnels, and hot forge air, with pale scars crossing her knuckles like old chalk marks. She moves with a measured, economical gait, never wasting a step, yet her head constantly tilts toward distant noises as if the mountain is speaking directly into her bones. Her beard is braided into four thick cords, each bound with copper rings stamped with the names of miners she has saved. Despite her intimidating size and soot-blackened work gear, she wears a tiny blue silk ribbon around one wrist, a delicate gift from her estranged daughter that she refuses to remove.
“Low, blunt, and gravelly, with the steady rhythm of a hammer striking a measured blow. Brunna rarely raises her voice because she expects people to listen.”

Distinguishing Features
Four copper beard rings engraved with the names of miners she rescued.
A white scar across her left eyebrow caused by the Red Vein Collapse.
A blue silk ribbon tied around her wrist despite the grime and damage covering the rest of her clothing.
One front tooth has been replaced with polished black stone.
Her left hand occasionally trembles when she hears rhythmic knocking from behind a wall.
Voice
“A resonant contralto with a dry rasp, like iron dragged across granite. Her laugh is startlingly bright and lasts only a few seconds before she reins it back in.”
Clothing
A reinforced leather mining apron over a patched charcoal tunic, iron-capped boots, layered wool wraps, a soot-stained red sash marking her forewoman rank, and a battered half-cloak sewn from old emergency blankets.
Body Language
Brunna plants her feet as if bracing against an earthquake and rests one hand on her maul while thinking. She leans close when someone speaks, not from poor hearing but to judge their breathing and sincerity. When angry, she becomes unnervingly still, with only the copper rings in her beard trembling.
