Gordy

"Careful. I've traveled the continet, and the hardest bargains still come from my seven-year-old."

- Sagani

Gordy is a child in. He can be found near the south gate of the Copperlane district of Defiance Bay.

Background
A young boy watches the passersby and counts a grimy handful of coins. His face and arms are smudged with dirt, but except for the grass stains, his clothes are in good condition. As you approach, he blinks and makes a quick, furtive effort to pocket his coins.

He is Hamor's son and a kid who's incredibly passionate about knives. He learned a lot about metalworking, about how they are made in a forge, how they can pierce armor... His biggest ambition is to have a March steel dagger, one of the finest blades to be had in Defiance Bay (except for Durgan steel, but they don't make it anymore, so it doesn't count).

Quests

 * Something Secret: When you talk to him, he suggests a trade. This starts the task. If you conclude that quest by giving him the knife, he can later be found in the same location, being scolded by his father. You can admit or deny any involvement. At any rate, Gordy stands to lose his fingers if you don't have Survival 4+ and don't instruct him how to handle it. Sagani is particularly skeptical of the kid's ambitions. Massuk dwarves teach daughters how to use a hunting knife as soon as they can speak; by the time they hit ten they can field-dress a hare with ease. Gordy strikes her as a kid who couldn't be trusted with a butter knife. Haravias remarks that the kid would manage to hurt himself with a picture of a knife and ask the Watcher if they couldn't just scare the information out of the kid like 'responsible adults'. Eder may also comment that 'we got a little hustler here. Someone raised this kid right.'
