Hornfels Earthborn

Hornfels Earthborn is a dwarven ally who fights beside Mica and Skarn through occupied Darv and later resistance operations.

Biography

Recorded appearances

Hornfels serves the Earthborn remnant after Darv's political betrayal and occupation leave dwarven fighters operating through tunnels and fractured command. He uses defensive earth magic while fighting beside Mica Earthborn and Skarn, prioritizing survival of the clan and resistance rather than the authority of the compromised former rulers. The group endures dangerous movement through occupied territory and later joins the wider Dicathian remnant, linking a local dwarven struggle to the coalition beyond Darv. The supplied scenes establish loyal participation and survival but do not provide enough individual interiority for a more elaborate personal transformation or independent command arc. (Chapters 227, 235, 239, 303, and 316)
