Old Æmber
Croc was born in the Iron Hills, East of Mirkwood, and was raised the woodland greens of the Iron Highlands. After the slaughter of his clan he was exiled from his homeland; other than Croc surviving the massacre was his brother Krit. In his exile, Croc left with his brother to sea with their future mentor, Korbin the Mad. Croc was once the Ordinator of House Dunamai, which was a noble house centered around the Dunamai family. Korbin the Mad, leader of Dunamai, trained Croc when he was young and taught him how to properly fight with single-handed maces. After a year of immense pain, repetitive technique, and maturity on the field, Croc gained vast knowledge of the maces he wielded. Soon after the end of his training, Dunamai and Æmber were drawn apart in battle. Croc and Krit soon returned to land and continued what they knew best, and that was to fight.
Croc Æmber is a capable and a cunning warrior, if not a particularly inspiring or clever leader. While shorter than elves or men, he is said to be quite tall for a dwarf.
