The Dandyhats: Algerburn Mindaloof



Our good Lord Archibrum heard that engineers are good fighters, so he obviously had to have one in his party. And so he sent his servants to search for an engineer. The first one they found who was willing to enlist in the warband was Algerburn Mindaloof, the latest engineer to have joined the court. They made a mistake, though: he was the wrong kind of engineer. Instead of being and expert crafter (and user) of firearms and war machines, he was what one would call a "project manager". But not a single member of the warband understood the difference, so they did not give it a second thought when Algerburn accepted to join the expedition.

Neither money nor honour are things that would make Algerburn even think to join a group of entitled dwarves chasing a defunct notion of glory... However, while he was studying at the University of Moriemburg, he heard so many wonderful things about Mordheim's architecture that he couldn't say no the chance of visiting it!

Algerburn is the only dwarf in the warband who doesn't care about fashion, but as long as the dwarf lord Archibrum keeps on financing this expedition, he won't have any issues on complying with the dress code.


Algerburn gets so lost on the city's architecture and daydreams so much about how it would have been in the old days, that he constantly forgets his weapon leaning against random walls. So his weapon is always two or three streets away whenever he actually needs to use it.

Luckily for him, up until now, nothing has needed fixing or building. Dreading the moment when this happens, he has been setting up meetings with other engineers on the war camps, and any time someone needs to talk to him, he says that his "schedule is busy for the next week, but if there is a slot that frees before that, I'll let you know".
