Description:

Pitrick has pale skin with a bluish cast resembling a living corpse. His face is a grotesque mask with very wide set eyes and lips that seem to be fixed in a permanent sneer. His yellow hair is bristly and unkempt and grows in sporadic ugly patches on his face. Pitrick is hunchbacked (hump over right shoulder) and leans forward as a result of his poor posture. He drags his right foot when he walks and it appears to cause him pain which he dilutes with spells, goldroot salve, or mushale.

Personality:

Pitrick is addicted to power. As the advisor to Realgar, Thane of the Theiwar, Pitrick holds a very high position. He tends to toy with his enemies before disposing of them in the Beast Pit. He is not a dwarf that handles rejection well, and is obsessed with breaking and dominating those beneath him. He is not held in very high regard and as such takes steps to defend himself going so far as to trap the door to his house with a lightning bolt that only he (or those he designates) can bypass.
