a lank, scab-faced orc
Zakur is the resident healer under the mountain, and formerly an ally of the Vadok Ushtarak leader Striza, though it is said he was outcast from the tribe for betrayal and stripped of all but his rags. Today he is an aspiring shaman, seeking his next concoction or apprentice in the wilds.

Utterby

Gararic Omdahl

Gararic used to work at a Usurer's office in Laketown and his Master wasn't exactly on the up and up. A fact he used to essentially blackmail his way to the capital to fund the Utterby Lumber Mill. Now that he's of middle age, his son, Ealstan, has taken over Overseeing the Lumber Mill for him, while his eldest son, Rogan, is learning how to manage the town, though Gararic's hand is still very much present.

Amandine Omdahl

Amandine was Askell's daughter and once the beauty of the town. She married Gararic and is what many would consider a political wife. The gardens are one of her projects to "keep things more civilized."

Boovar "Bov" Askellson

Amandine's brother is one of the most important men in the Lumber Mill. He's the Overseer of the Hunters and Trappers (and Fishermen) so all of the meat and furs and the monitoring thereof are his duty for the town's export and trade.

Ealstan and Eastmaer Omdahl

Gararic and Amandine's twin sons. Ealstan is the Overseer of the Timberwrights, the second most important of the men in the Lumbermill. Eastmaer is little more than a layabout and lothario. The most difficult thing here is that they are identical twins in spite of the fact that they're polar opposites.

Rogan Omdahl

Gararic and Amandine's eldest son who is training under his father in usury and the management of the town.

Askell Fleinnson

Originally hailing from Bramblewood, years before Gararic's arrival, Askell built the Ironwood Inn and fathered Amandine and Bov. He has since retired and left the Inn in the capable hand(s) of his apprentice, Ragnar.

Ragnar

Innkeeper of the Ironwood

Ragnar lost one arm below the elbow, but still works around the inn and handles the brewing, though his talent isn't anything like Askell's once was. A much bemoaned fact in town.

Brandron Coghlan

Town Blacksmith and Artisan's Overseer 

As long as anyone can remember, he's been the town's blacksmith, though he's since taken on more of a managerial role with exports and import of metal for the Lumber Mill.

Sigvard Burnburr

Tax collector and usurer

Apprenticed to the same master as Gararic, when the Master was ruined, Gararic offered Sigvard a position in Utterby and was taken up on it. He is a collector of favors and secrets and everyone seems to owe him something.

Wulfhjar Eolfson

Captain of the Guard

It is well known that Wulfhjar was madly in love with Amandine as a youth and even now, it is fairly well known that he carries a torch for her.

Dormond Rorrekk

Overseer of the Farmers

Probably the least important of the roles within the Lumbermill, Dormond came from Barleyhill (a small agricultural village near Laketown) and remains a quiet and unassuming man who has big ideas that often fail in regard to making farming as useful as he's convinced it could be for Utterby.
