Formally a Gravedigger in a small Gnomish community South of Leth Deriel, Karmac has given up his meager possessions in order to service the Gods. Recently joining the Cleric guild and dedicating his faith to the Gnomish deity Spangklud, Karmac can be seen honoring the God by immersing himself in the crafts.

Appearance

You see Inventor Karmac Rhodri, Idolist of Elanthia, a Gnome Cleric.
He has a round face, close-set violet eyes and a small nose. He has thinning grey hair, with wrinkled skin and a stout build.
He is a bit over average height for a Gnome.
He has a thick bushy mustache that droops heavily on his upper lip and a long shaggy beard.

Attire

He is wearing a gloriously polished jade ring inlaid with bronze gremlins, a pair of inventor's spectacles with multiple retractable lenses, a jade luck charm carved with faint symbols, a regal black cashmere longcoat with a vivid violet nightsilk lining, a clerical collar, a tiny amethyst icesilk cassock buttoned with animite gremlins, a tiny amethyst icesilk dress shirt with animite buttons, a violet prayer sash shot through with glistening black threads, an inventor's ironwood gadget box labeled "Spangklud", a large case constructed from a series of metal cogs, a jade-hilted skinning knife displaying the Clerics' Guild crest, some black cashmere pants trimmed in vivid violet nightsilk, a pair of scuffed suede workboots with broken laces, an inventor's spidersilk toolbag stitched with gremlins, a large spidersilk sack and a tiny spidersilk backpack clasped with an animite Gnome.

History

Karmac left his former community, mostly made up of extended family members, and has begun life in the Crossings. This move was inspired by his cousin Tiso, who told him he needs to be "greater than your size." Having formally served as a Gravedigger, Karmac was familiar with death rites and clerical practices concerning burials. Having grown too old to continue digging, a friend had mentioned that perhaps he could practice a less physical and more spiritual profession. Karmac made his way North to the Crossings and joined with the Cleric's located there.

While in the Crossings, Karmac did some studying on the religions of the Gnomes and the various gods which they observed before the Gorbesh infection. Having found a connection between his own desires and the path of the god Spangklud, Karmac has abandoned the traditional Gravedigger worship of Urrem'tier.

When he first dedicated his life to Spangklud, he donated everything he owned to charity. He felt that he should only have what his god has been able to provide for him, so for a short time he wore rags while he worked on his crafts. Becoming a proficient tailor, Karmac has been able to earn a steady amount of income which has allowed him to purchase several rather exquisite pieces of clothing. Karmac contributes the growing success as a sign from his god that he is counted among Spangklud's favored.
