Personality: 

	Optimist with natural leader.  Maruk's God is Moradin.  He believes that the better armor is a priority and will upgrade his armor at the earliest opportunity.  He wants to promote Moradin's teachings and all other deities are one step below.  He is interested in destroying all evil.  He will take heal spells at first option.  He believes in fighting fair in all ways. 

Brief Background:

	Maruk comes from the mountain dwarf clans of Highland.  Although the priesthood didn't run in his family, Maruk felt a strong connection with his god from an early age.  His parents encouraged him towards fighting, but his heart was in his religion.  After his day's worth of training in fighting arts, Maruk would spend his free time studying theology, particularly the teachings of Moradin.
	Having gained fame as a brave and charismatic dwarf among the dwarves of the mountainous range, Maruk felt his calling was even larger.  Setting out by himself, Maruk sought to teach others the true enlightenment of Moradin.  Failing to do so in the Selune worshiping land of East Stallshore, Maruk set out for the hub of the world, Saberhaven.
	Maruk stayed in Saberhaven for several weeks, visiting the small local temple and preaching to those who would listen in the streets (mostly dwarves).  Hoping to find a larger audience, at the suggestion of one cleric from the Saberhaven temple, Maruk decided to adventure and guide a group in trouble.  His first stop was a tavern called the Rottin' Corpse, where a group was gathering.

Notes:
God:   Moradin (Father of All Dwarves)
