rofl Is English not your first language?

What's with all these resurrections lately?

You should upload "The Trapper" to YouTube or something.

Well this is pretty ridiculous.

Well, the lava has since hardened, hence the glassy-black plains.

1. Hrafn is an ancient Scandinavian name which means "Raven", so it's pronounced similarly to that. I felt it had sufficient roughness for a dwarf's name, though I could be more Tolkeinish and give him a name like Hralin, or Hafin, or something like that. I'll think about it.

2. I wanted to give him a sword because the dwarf+axe combination is too cliche, in my opinion. It's suitable for generic troops, but a Hero should stand out more. A huge sword + throwing axes + armor is quite enough for a dwarf to carry.

3. Hrafn's will has been broken greatly since he failed his brethren and was exiled. He's not the brash sort who would challenge you to an arm-wrestling match. The charisma requirement isn't really him being wooed, it's just him finding you to be a nice/respectable person and a suitable one to open up to.

He really wants to prove himself worthy and have his past embarrassment forgotten.

Addition to avoid double post

I think I would probably like to work on the dwarfs, though possibly the elves. After re-reading the first post's race descriptions, I think that the elves' lifespans should be decreased to 3000-3500 instead of how high they were, and dwarfs should be reduced to a few hundred. 200-300 is the prime of life, and the eldest of the elders live between 500 and 600 years, sometimes more in extreme cases.

Sweet, I'll do any other writing/storyline/whatever you need me to do.

Player character sees a slightly-younger-than-middle-aged looking dwarf clad in thick chainmail, a sturdy looking Nerrian knight’s helm, with a formidable looking two-handed blade strapped to his back which nearly scrapes the ground, even with the entirety of the hilt sticking up above his head, and several throwing axes in his belt. His beard, though long for a human, is significantly shorter than that of most dwarfs.

PC: What brings a dwarf such as yourself to these parts? (The dwarf, named Hrafn, would be in a town far from dwarfish lands)

Hrafn: (If PC’s charisma is below 12) That’s rightly none of your business, you slimy rat. Now would you kindly get out of my face?
(above 12) Aye, it is peculiar for a dwarf to stray so far from the mountains, isn’t it? Not that I can go back, as I’ve been disgraced by my clan. That is why my beard was cut so short. My settlement was attacked by (Quelthesas or Undead, depending on which the dwarfs are at war with. If both, Undead) raiders while I was supposed to be at lookout. I, however, had it in my mind that evening that nothing would ever attack our cozy mountain village, and I had gotten myself into a drunken stupor even as I was sitting at my post watching the sun set. Just as the (Undead) forces smashed open the gates, I was topping of my mug of ale, and when I saw those terrible rotten masses of bones killing my people, I ran. I still know not what possessed me to turn and flee, but I, and my people, have never forgiven me. It’s been nearly 5 years since then and in my exile from the ancient lands of the dwarfish lords, I have found myself with nothing but the armor on my back and weapons in my hands. Say, you seem like a strong warrior. You wouldn’t happen to know where I could find some work?

PC: Accept into party or whatever.

Hrafn should be very strong, with good armor and a good sword. He should have devastating skill with the two-handed sword, high HP and defensive skills, and be quite accurate with the throwing axes.

If you can’t do the stuff with the charisma level, oh well.

Hey, I'll whip up an NPC backstory in a bit, since it's wanted. I can't mod, but I'm pretty good at writing.

I have an idea: The comet wasn't necessarily so big, but it caused a volcanic eruption/reaction, causing lava streams, revealing the iron vein and causing most of the devastation.

If the dwarves do get guns (I think it's a cool idea to have high-tech mountain folk), they shouldn't just be generic muskets or what have you. Make them cool, stylized rifles with creative design.

You just used the word "forces" 6 times in two sentences. 

Now try mixing the superepic importance of the first one and melding it with the second one.

I don't know how you plan to make the combat (if at all changed), but I think that since the weapons themselves are generally going to be rather weak, focus the combat on speed and agility. Make light armours and pump up the athletics skill so there is less blocking and more dodging etc.

I agree with Balduran, though. You should make the hole itself somewhat smaller, and then in the space where it used to be, make a gradual buffer where everything begins becoming desolate and flattened, basically as far as its shockwave would go (it would still be undersized, but there's only so much you can do).

my guess (I know nothing about modding) would be that it would have something to do with recruiting from prisoners, obviously.

nice looking mod, though. I hope you complete it.
