Year 1 - Spring - Bouldre (Peasant Miners)
A simple peasant house for a family of miners, the Bouldres!
After his daughter passed away, Harald Bouldre has been a nervous wreck. He’s trying to keep it together for his grandchildren, but it’s not been easy. Luckily he has his brother, Thori, around to help out.
Thori was always the better miner of the two of them, and he’s taken Nigel under his wing now the boy’s old enough to start working. He’s a strong, healthy lad with a knack for finding interesting shiny things, and he gets along well with his great uncle Thori. They’re like two peas in a pod!
Nigel’s also been very close to a certain Finley Dowrick, a peasant fisherman. His granddad wants him to spend more time with girls, find himself a future wife, but Nigel’s not so sure about girls or marriage. Why not stay a bachelor, like his cool uncle?
His younger sister Leofe got plenty of attention. She actually learned all of her toddler skills before aging up at the end of the season, which I almost never manage. She’s got the eccentric and insane traits, so should be quite a character…
Between the three of them, they were able to dig up plenty of ore, although they had trouble finding buyers. Those snooty Mondegreens seem to be the only family in the village wth any real coin! Well, the other peasants will earn some more money once I play them. For now, most of the goods got sold to “merchants overseas”. At least they had no trouble meeting their tax requirements!
