Background

Born and raised in [Insert name of the holdfast near Altendorf] Borgin spent many years as a warrior for his clan. After many pitched battles with hobgoblins and orcs alike, his huge warhammer "Morgisbane" became something of a symbol of fear for the goblinoids, who gave him his nickname.

After retiring from the militia, Borgin settled into a small hut on the north face of one of the larger mountains in the range, where he opened a smithy and a small temple to Moradin with his wife, Emya. The two lived happily and even had a child, a youngling named Myrf, and the Bristlebeard smithy was well-known among the dwarves of his clan.

Then the giants came, one cold winters day when the grizzled dwarf was out prospecting, and they destroyed his home. Slaying his wife and son with impunity, they ransacked the smithy before destroying the place utterly.

Since then, Borgin has travelled the length and breadth of the land, hunting the exact band of giants that murdered his family. Since he isn't actually sure which giants it was, he has developed the simple credo: "Kill 'em all, 'n ye're bound tae git the right 'un!"
