Basics

Appearance

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.

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.

Current

  • Hosting an ongoing series of meetings with the newly minted "Council of Forfedhdar". Some call this madness, others say his activity was nothing short of inspiration.

Notable Items

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.

The Pillar of Kraggur

Six aspects are carved into the granite pillar.

The name “Kraggur” is carved into the base of the pillar as the first aspect, with “Kraggath-mag, Kreggath-mag, Kreggur-mag” cut underneath it.

Above the name is a raven circling a mountain peak, the sun rising high above it, forming the second aspect

The third aspect is the lunar symbol for the evening star. The carving is fairly primitive, but a more sophisticated image of a nightingale has been added, the evening star serving as its eye.

A blank spot has been left for the fourth aspect.

Fifth is an intricately carved open book, resting atop a pile of scrolls.

The sixth, and final aspect, is a raven, symbolized in three ways: first is a carving of a raven; second are holes drilled forming the constellation of the raven; third is the lunar sigil for the raven.
