Rudolf Vidal

A gnomish inventor who helped refine the creation of warforged for House Canith. Rudolf Vidal is ultimately responsible for the creation of the Lord of Blades; who then rebelled and took most of the warforged soldiers with him. Due to this, Rudolf was imprisoned by Asinar Canith. 
He was freed by Tardigrade IV and Sparrow Treekeeper as they thought he had been imprisoned unfairly. Shortly after being freed, he was killed by Mordakhesh of the Lords of Dust; so that he could infiltrate the War Council of Awbor. 
Rudolf's unfair trial was the event that convinced Tardigrade IV and Sparrow to found the Little People Association. 
== History ==
The son of a travelling gnome spice merchant, Rudolf picked up many tips and tricks on the road. He learned how to mend and repair almost anything, which when his family travelled through Stowerling, proved a very valuable skill to House Canith. 
Rudolf was offered a position to work on and remain the warforged soldiers of House Canith, which he gladly undertook. He quickly rose through the ranks to become the top inventor. 
After many years of toiling, he came up with his greatest creator, the Lord of Blades; a towering warforged with an increased mental prowess and greatly improved internal mechanics. However when the Lord of Blades turned on House Canith; Rudolf was imprisoned for his part in its creation. 
After several months he was freed from prison by the Hindenburg Ground Crew, who had a grievance with Asinar Canith, and thought Rudolf had been unjustly imprisoned. 
Rudolf was brought to the town of Hindenburg by the party, and started improving the security and technology of the town. Sadly he was killed shortly after this by Mordakhesh and the Lords of Dust.
