Big Ed Badgerton is a middle-aged Hill Dwarf with a gruff countenance. He sports a bushy white beard that falls to his chest and a large moustache that obscures his mouth when he speaks. His piercing blue eyes hint at a lifetime of hard work dealing with unruly patrons. Big Ed is dressed in simple, pragmatic clothes and wears a sturdy leather cap and vest, Ed might be gruff and short stated, but he is a fair and honest dwarf.
When
behind the counter at his beloved Salin's Rest, he's quick to place a drink or meal in front of patrons without delay - a
simple gesture perhaps, but rooted in a keen sense of business acumen.
Big Ed is fiercely protective of his establishment and its patrons, but his
gruff demeanour may mask a compassionate heart. Despite his rough exterior,
Ed is known for his generosity towards those in need, often providing
shelter or a meal to those down on their luck - even though he fiercely
denies it whenever Cassie Runeckles brings it up!
