When the dwarves poured down the hill like an avalanche, nobody thought to worry. They had lived in peace with the humans there for years and traded goods regularly. It was normal for dwarves to travel in full chainmail - many treated it like a woollen jumper. As they got a little closer, the dusk-light showed unusually tall silhouettes for dwarves, about the size of a stocky man. It was only when they were five feet from the villagers who had come out to greet them that they noticed the greyish-green skin and jutting bottom teeth. Worse than the strange hue, teeth and even than the coal-black eyes, was the sight of some dwarves so misshapen and driven to insanity that some had cut their own beards off.

These were dwarves no longer, but hobgoblins - the kind of nura which is made when dwarves are polluted with the strange magic which lives below the earth. They are always hungry. They were so full of hunger in fact that they slaughtered a dozen villagers and began to eat them raw, some still living, without a care for the others. The other humans moved quickly after that, taking up torches and farming tools as make-do weapons. Those the nura do not eat often become nura themselves, so the farmers fought fiercely. It is said that those who die as nura often blaspheme against the gods before they die, and so do not reach the afterlife they were meant for.

Unknown to them, one of the hobgoblins was meant to be keeping a lookout from the roof of the cottage on the edge of town. He observed them for a brief moment and then jumped off, axe in hand, ready to make up for all the meals he had missed while pretending to keep guard.

Now is the time to look at your character's base Attributes and think about what they might be good at. The best place to start is your highest Attribute. If you have a positive (or simply not negative) Intelligence score, making a spell caster is a good option. Buy off any Wits penalties and put a magic sphere down on the character sheet and a couple of \glsentrylongpl{mp}. Alternatively, if your highest Trait so far is a Body Attribute perhaps this character is more suited to being a fighter. Don't worry if you have negative Body Attributes -- your starting \gls{xp} can buy all of that up to 0 quite easily.

We measure weight in broad terms to save time. Characters have a weight rating equal to their Hitpoints, so elves tend to have 5, while humans tend to have a Weight of 7. Items work similarly, with weight ratings between -3 (for very light items) and +11 (for wardrobes, carts, and boulders).

Characters can attack in an \textit{Aggressive} or \textit{Defensive} stance. This system takes the Defensive stance as default -- the Dexterity Bonus is added to the Evasion score to keep the character safe. However, a character can forego safety for additional combat ability and add the Dexterity Bonus to Strike should they wish. Any Bonuses to Evasion from weapons also add to the Strike Factor. The score cannot be divided between the two -- the Stances are an `all or nothing' affair. Delicate decisions concerning priorities require the Combat Skill, which can be added one piece at a time to any of the Combat Factors.
