Towering over most humans at 6'3", Garath Markwell is what most people refer to as a 'mountain giant', though most of his bulk was derived from his younger days of clanging molten iron with a sledgehammer. As an adult he soon realized that he preferred imparting his skills of metalworking than working in a dimly-lit forge, and found a natural home in the University of Zeltiva's College of Applied Skills, where he had been teaching for over two decades. He has an unabashedly hearty personality, often first heard before being sighted, and has a very direct way of talking. Still, those of an open-minded nature who are able to look past his insensitive ways will find a treasure trove of experience from this goodnatured blacksmith.
