Flisk

Background

Ever since the brutal battle with the hawkmen that took the life of Prince Roga, son of King Nurid, the ruling body of the mountain dwarfs has been left in some disarray. While a call for revenge against the hawkmen initially motivated your people to find ways to strike back against Vultan and his band of winged warriors, the unifying voice of the Earthman known as Flash Gordon convinced you all to channel your anger and turn, instead, against Ming the Merciless, the venomous spider at the center of the web that has been responsible for so much pain and bloodshed.

You recently set out on foot with a small band of elite mountain dwarf champions in search of elusive pockets of freedom fighters with whom you hope to ally yourselves and aid in the effort to eventually dethrone the emperor.

As your people spend most of their lives in torch lit caverns deep beneath the planet’s surface, you tend to be highly suspicious of others, but once trust is gained, you prove to be a reliable ally.
