Status Alive

Locked A loud, warm, red-bearded dwarf caravan-master from Stonedeep, and the first man who ever hired "Trevor". He's proud of that.

"Forty years I've driven this road and I've never once left a wagon for the weather."

Meeting Trevor

At Thornford ford, with a wheel sunk axle-deep in spring mud, Bram was bellowing at his crew, the river and the sky. A big bearded stranger in a dead man's coat told him to rock it, not haul it. Bram hired him on the spot to guard the caravan from Thornford to Oakhaven: six silver a week, meals, and don't touch the wine barrels. On the road, an abandoned caravan with broken wheels turned out to be an ambush by Syndicate-hired bandits for the Sunstone they carried, and Trevor dealt with it quietly. Bram spread the Torchbearer's legend and later served as his supply corps and his eyes. He loves Trevor like kin and has no idea who he is.

The caravan crew

Before the war Bram's caravan carried a crew that became a family: his nephew Tobb on the horses, Old Fen at the cook-fire, Sella with a bow, and Alyssa Kruger with a sword. Three of them later sailed west and only two came back. See Bram's caravan.

Now

Bram carts under the imperial seal, and secretly smuggles for the The Lantern Road. He has contacts among the Stonedeep smiths.

DM only

In the projected Age of Ribbons, Stonedeep smiths are paid in Lantern Road silver to copy Eleven's drawings into crude "thunder-tubes". Bram is the natural go-between.
