Arathur's dedication to his craft is matched only by his love for his family. He is a devoted husband and father, always putting the needs of his loved ones before his own. However, his ambition and thirst for power sometimes cloud his judgment, leading him to make questionable decisions in his pursuit of wealth and influence.
Despite the decline of House Obsidian's political power, Arathur remains determined to uphold his family's legacy and maintain their status as the finest blacksmiths in the land. He continues to oversee the production of the finest weapons and armor, ensuring that his family's craft remains unrivaled in quality and beauty.
Alliance with Otto Sunero
During Otto’s impassioned plea before House Obsidian, Arathur was moved by the young cleric’s resolve and quietly offered his aid. The two now share coded missives, and Arathur serves as Otto’s inside contact within the great smith‑house. Commander of Eldergate – With the Bastion fallen, Arathur has taken personal command of Eldergate’s defenses. Under his leadership the city’s forges burn night and day, turning out pike‑heads and shield‑plates to hold the passes against the advancing Clerics of Hextor.Search for the Truth
Convinced that Jowan Cormak is a pawn in a deeper game, Arathur has dispatched scouts and coin alike in search of proof that the arch‑cleric was framed. Eldergate’s spies now track rumors from the Barrier to Vespera, following every thread that might unravel the conspiracy.
