Description:
Roonoo is difficult for anyone to describe… he is so very hairy that only a few has seen his features. His dark blue eyes can be seen beneath a shroud of black hair on his head and face. Were he to disrobe, which he often does in combat, you would see that his entire body is covered with the same long black hair like overgrown fur. In daylight, it becomes obvious that his hair color is not exactly black, but is tinged with skyfire blue. Roonoo stands 4ft7 and is slender for a dwarf.

Combat Tactics:
Combat will bring out the pirate in Roonoo. Normally he is anything but brash, but in the heat of a good combat, his Charisma will increase and his voice will raise and his actions will become his bravado. He fights with a staff primarily but is pretty handy with a decent shortbow.

Relationships:
Roonoo had, at one time, many relationships across many destinations throughout the Sea of Swords. There are likely still some ladies awaiting his return even though its been over a hundred years. The spellplague changed everything – even Roonoo’ libido.
The closest thing Roonoo has these days to an emotional bond is with the many horses he works with across his several stables up and down the Sword Coast.

Background:
Roonoo has been around for a long time and has seen most of the realms. Prior to the spellplague he was a famed pirate and something of a folk hero around many ports, but especially well-known in the Moonshae Islands. The spellplague brought disaster to many, including Roonoo – reducing him to an empty husk of the Dwarf he used to be. After perhaps the most epic shipwreck in the history of the Isles, he washed up on shore without strength and without memory. It was then that brethren monks found him. He has spent years rebuilding himself in their monastery. There he learned The Way of the Blackthorn. This tradition allows him to extend his Ki into wood, making it strong as steel and giving him an unusual deftness of control over it. He wears a simple robe and carries a 5 ft staff. Typically very quiet and unassuming for a Dwarven male… but when combat begins, he reverts back in personality to the charismatic Pirate hero he once was. Much to the chagrin of his fellows, he will often drop his robe as he prefers to battle in the nude. Not that much is revealed… Roonoo has long body hair, like that of a Cloud Peaks mountain goat. Black in dim light but under the sun you can see hints of spellplague-blue – a significant clue as to how Roonoon came to have so much body hair compared to any other Dwarf in the Realms.
