Sibrek the Peasant aka Dr. Badass.
The greatest hero that ever lived in the great fortress of Firstwound. Upon arrival he was drafted into the military despite his old age. Being the last recruit to join the army we naturally did not have a uniform ready for him. Thus his first comabt mission had to be carried out without armor or weapon. Due to a misscommunication among the squad, he had the missfortune of being engaged in one on one combat by a blind cave crocodile. After biting off his left lower leg, the beast latched on to his right eye and shook him around by it. He free himself by using his one remaining good leg to kick the foul beast so hard in the face that it lost one of it's teeth. He then crawled to safety as his foe retreated further into the caverns. The reptillian menace was later gunned down by my marksdwarves.
Several months later, Sibrek, now fully recovered after being honorably discharged from military service, proudly wears the scars of his past battles. In his left hand he holds a mahogany crutch, his left cheeck bears a long straight scar and his mangled right eye bears a jagged, vertical scar. After another one of my attempts to weaponize my recently captured dragon had failed, and the savage creature had once again escaped, Sibrek took it upon himself to take a stand. While the other dwarves fled to safety Sibrek lured it into a corridor littered with cage traps. In an attempt to slay the great dragon, Sibrek impales his right upper thigh onto on of the monster's fangs. He then begins furiously pummeling the wyrm's visage with his fist and crutch. Although the battle was brief, it was a fitting end for a great hero such as Sibrek. Thanks to his sacrifice, we've managed to once again recapture the dragon, who's weaponization is still in progress.
