===Description===
===Description===
As painted by Artisan [[Cinen]], 399 AV.
Kraggur is known for his deeply-set grey eyes, the storm within often cleared by his hearty laugh. His open face is yet unlined by the hardship or years he has lived, although a great portion of it is covered by his long beard. A tribal tattoo of a golden hawk, wings spread wide, stretches across the potion of his face not covered by his beard. Thick golden brown hair covers his head and is kept tied back and away from his eyes. Long years spent working have toned his body to a burly build not often seen on a mage.
:With laugh lines creasing his square-jawed face and deep-set stormy grey eyes showing a strange intensity, the Dwarf stands tall next to an iron gate, a petite grey-green katydid on his shoulder. A mining belt circles his chain hauberk, while thick-soled mountain boots shod his feet, indicating that the Dwarf is ready for both a hard day's work and a hard day's fight. The Himineldar Shel mountains rise in the background, their ice-covered peaks reflecting the sunset in a dazzling display of fire and ice.

===Personality===
Kraggur is slow to anger except when he percieves injustice, particularly slavery, or anything approximating slavery. He does enjoy tossing good-natured barbs at people, mainly to see how they react. However, he does not take slights to his abilities well at all, though he is quick to forgive if the person who slights him corrects their position. Peace and stability are two things treasured by Kraggur and he has been known to threaten busting heads when his meditations are disrupted.

;a pale moonsilk robe with a silver and sunstone belt-clasp

:The pale blue material is woven of stone-washed raw silk, creating a heavy fabric with a lush sheen. Darkened bracers feature images of Xibar in various phases and hold the robe firmly to the forearm when worn. Dulled silver ravens and copper wolves edge the hem of the garment. The highly polished silver belt-clasp forms the shape of a mountain, with a raven whose wings are outspread. The raven clasps a sunstone scroll with writing upon it.
:A pale moonsilk robe reads: "Kraggur Kveldcharn, Nenavskan"

;a long carving knife etched with lunar symbols

:The stars of Kertigen's constellation, the Raven, are etched onto one side of the blade. Opposite the stars are a series of animals following a trail of runes, all set in copper. Raven wings sweep up from the hilt to form a hand guard, while the feet clasp a sunstone scroll.
