🔧Garrick “Rigg” Dalhart

“Sometimes the best plan is a wrench and a window.”

Overview

Appearance

A rugged human with a weathered face and short, tousled dark hair. His jaw carries the shadow of perpetual stubble, and his eyes constantly scan for danger—or an angle. Rigg wears reinforced leather armor patched with steel plating, clearly field-modified. Slung across his back is his signature weapon: a massive two-handed wrench, stained with grease, blood, and history.

His movements are practiced and precise, and even when relaxed, he seems coiled—like a spring ready to snap. He’s often mistaken for a mercenary or engineer, but those who get too close quickly learn not to underestimate him.

Personality

🧠 Key Trait: Survivalist Opportunist vs. Emerging Moralist

Rigg doesn’t talk much. When he does, it’s sharp, dry, and laced with pragmatism. Raised on the docks, he's seen the worst of people and learned to stay two steps ahead. He’s always scanning for an exit—or loot. Despite a history of sticky fingers, recent events have started to awaken something deeper: a conscience. He hides empathy under layers of sarcasm and tactical calculation, often playing the role of the reluctant hero.

Backstory

đź“– Click to Expand Backstory

Garrick “Rigg” Dalhart was born to a dockworker father and an absentee mother on the Sword Coast. Life among crates, bribes, and brine taught him to fix things—especially problems. As a child, he picked locks for coin and repaired wagon axles for food. Over time, he earned a reputation not just as a thief, but a problem-solver.

The wrench he carries was once his father’s—a tool of labor turned into a weapon of survival. After a falling-out with a local thieves’ guild over a botched smuggling job, Rigg vanished. Months later, he surfaced in a tavern lighthouse on a stormy night, five ales in hand, and a new crew by his side. He says he’s in it for the gold—but he’s stayed long past his cut.
