The Past
Family: father was a normal dwarven blacksmith and his mom was killed by a giant when he was at a ripe age of 12.
History: Ever since he was a little dwarf boy he aspired to be a great warrior. Daily he would pretend that the trees he chopped down were his foes (in the small dwarf town he grew up in the boys would gather wood for building and burning). After years of practice he became a formidable axe wielder but any guard could still beat him so he thought that if he wore big strong armor he would be unbeatable but he went up to kill a bandit. He didn't know that an arrow shoot from a strong guy can go through poorly made armor and that he cant do squat at range. So he started learning how to forge from his dad and many other dwarves in the town and started throwing axes at trees to chop them down instead of swinging an axe at them at first he brought shame to his family because he had a hard time learning how to forge and he brought in a tiny amount of trees at that time. It took 3 months for him to forge a decent blade but after that he learned the hardest of things in mere weeks. Although his axe throwing got better at a slow steady pace as he did it for hours on end avery day for a year until he gave up and went back to his normal way of hacking at the trees as if they were giants. Things went on as normal for the next two years until a wandering giant came to raid the town. The dwarves won with few casualties but one casualty was thogrims mom. Thogrim thought that if he kept throwing axes that he could have thrown one at the giants head before he killed his mom. so he went back to throwing axes but this time he was good at it. He would surpass his dad at forging at the age of 17 and was the best fighter in the whole town at 23 so he left the town only with an ox drawn wagon, his best forged items, and some bread. He has made money giving some tips to fellow blacksmiths, selling wood or his weapons or armor. along the way learned some tips and tricks from fellow blacksmiths or axe men. But what he did most of all was test his fighting ability

i know it sucks but i want you to help me make it good
Thogrim was running as fast as his little legs would let him but he knew he could not keep running much longer and he would be caught. Whoosh! An arrow flew inches away from his face and gave him a flash back of when he was young and was shot in the leg. Thump. Because he wasn’t paying attention he fell face first into a pile of mud.
He had second before they got him so he diligently felt for his urgrosh but only found a throwing axe. "This still works" whispered an angry dwarf as he buried it in the chest of the first bandit. Disregarding the bloody mess he pulls it out and throws it into the second. A small pack of wolves show up to see the commotion and find some free food. Luckily for the wolves’ Thogrim can care less about a bandit when it’s dead and kicked the first bandit to them.
Swish. Another arrow fly by but Thogrim can't locate the final assaulter. Ping. An arrow bounces off thogrim's helmet and, almost magically, lands on the urgrosh. The moment he grabs it the bandit foolishly dive tackles him. Within a minute Thogrim broke one arm and fractured both shoulders. Since the bandit is in too much pain to move thogrim casually gets up, and since he dislikes him being in so much pain he chops off his head to end this misery.
Just another day traveling in the woods.
