Kegburn Forgehands

The Forgehands name was derived from their unique ability to enchant weapons. Once widely known and admired for their ability they are now only known by local farmers to create farm tools. The family lost the knowledge of enchanting when a large group of goblins came and burned the Kegburns possessions and murdered the entire family but one. Kurdak Forgehands, Kegburn's great, great, great, grandfather, was a child who managed to hide and escape the goblins. Kurdak was found in his family's ashes by a band of dwarfs who were hunting down the Goblins. The band left the child at the nearest settlement. There Kurdak was fostered and told tales of his family's greatness and what was expected of him. Unfortunately, Kurdak did not have the natural skill nor the knowledge to reignite the Forgehands name. Since, generations of Forgehands have been making what they can to get by, mainly, farm tools. Some have attempted to enchant, unsuccessfully, but most have either lacked the natural talent or have been too stubborn to learn magic. That is, until Kegburn was born.

Kegburn, son of Kaytal.

Within the first few years of his infancy Kegburn showed the natural talent and understanding of magic. Kaytal, seeing that their family name might be restored to its former glory, encouraged Kegburn. He hired a tutor for him, despite their lack of money. Once the tutor had taught him everything he could Kegburn was ushered off to Stoneport by his farther. There Kegburn spent the majority of his youth studying at the university, learning the mysteries of magic. Now Kegburn has left the university and is on the search for new knowledge that will hopefully lead to the key of enchanting.
