Description

'Klemann Gestaub' translates to 'Dwarf Powdergunner', referring to the invention made by the Legacy Dwarfs eras ago. Powdergunners use powdered rifles to strike their opponents from afar, keeping their own distance and strategy in mind while they reload and fire on their enemies. The gunpowder of the Dwarfs has a potency unmatched by all, their pellets reaching high velocity speeds and resulting in many accounted kills across hundreds of wars.   In combat, the Powdergunners use the terrain to their advantage and hide behind cover, implementing tactics yet unseen by many other species. Their advantage lies in the knowledge of the world around them, and the Gestaube are fierce fighters who will complete their objective.   Klemann Gestaube are Level II Dwarfs.   Gear: Tysgiel Rifle (Rifle), Dagger, Armored Cloak (Light), 20 Schulden (Bullets), 3 GP.

Ideals

Precision. (Lawful) Powdergunners life their lives in such a way that makes many a Dwarf or other raise their eyebrows, as many elements in their life are cut down to a strict routine, showing an example of the pinnacle of the Dwarf militaries.

Bonds

Tysgiel. (God of Innovation) The expectations of the Powdergunners has been an intensification of their own dedication and efforts over the years, and the God of Innovation is said to be involved in the creation of their new weapons.

Flaws

Traditional Adherence. (Wisdom) In their creations of their own inventions, the Gestaube often hesitate to engage with other forms of technology, especially due to the fact that it were to be untested and malpracticed.
