Cliff Underdown

Cliff Underdown is a hill dwarf druid with the Firebreathing Kittens. 
Cliff's family are/were in the beer brewing business, but were driven from their home by monsters. A series of poor busniess choices left them ruined and in a lot of debt. 
Cliff became a soldier by joining a militia in defense of his home, but ultimately the monsters could not be overcome. Cliff was a very young dwarf at the time, and not good with weapons or command, but did befriend a druid and was moved by druidic teachings. 
You know, "be one with nature", "all things ebb and flow", "we are tiny specks of dust in a vast uncaring universe", "animals are pretty cool to chat with", all that stuff. He decided to follow his friend's guidance and give back to the world as a druid. 
His family were not accepting of this choice (being traditionalists and devout to dwarf gods), so he's estranged from them, but still sends money as often as possible to them. It hurts their pride to receive the money, but as he has no permanent address, they can't return it to Cliff. 
He joined the Firebreathing Kittens guild to make a fortune for his family and to explore the natural world.
