Description
Derval Ironeater was a stout and muscular dwarf with dark red hair and a grown out beard. His body was decorated with the shining metal ink tattoos that were a family secret of the Clan Ironeater. Working tiredly in his smithy, he often smelled of body odor, something he referred to as "sweatin' like a pig'n the pot".r

Personality
Derval was a gruff and loud individual who could come off as rude but, in reality, was friendly, and full of crude jokes. He referred to elves as "tree huggers" in jest.

Possessions
Derval possessed a +1 battleaxe, a +3 hammer, a set of +1 plate mail, a shield, and a ring of telekinesis.

History
Derval traveled to Daggerford with his brothers Derwin and Korin and their families around 1270 DR. Korin disappeared in 1350 DR and they never heard from him again. Clues suggested the dwarven brothers originated from Illefarn.

By 1370 DR, Derval was a respected blacksmith, councilor, guildmaster, and the proprietor of Derval's Bright Blade, working there alongside with his daughter, Veiti Ironeater.

Derval died in late 1484 DR.
