Your time in the mines has granted you an intuitive sense for how different rock and stone flows through the earth and where it is most easily manipulated. While digging or moving rock, your practiced hands make short work of the process and can guide others. Additionally, you can recognize the work of others and are able to identify, the size of the creature that dug any tunnel and also what tools (if any) were used in the process.
Suggested Characteristics
Quirks:
Roll a d6 and choose 1:
1. You've spent so much time underground that direct sunlight now gives you headaches.
2. You believe a day isn't over while there's work to be done. Rest comes late and seldom.
3. You've become obsessed with collecting well-cut gemstones
4. Mining is your way at reaching toward godhood. It's all about the fibrum.
5. You're used to packing yourself into spaces others would find hazardous, repulsive, claustrophobic, or all three.
6. Your possessions are your and yours alone. Perish the though of other touching them.
