Peter Random

I chose Peter Random as my fictional character in Kwikstead. Peter works as a blacksmith. I've been fascinated by the work of blacksmiths ever since I visted my father's uncle in his workshop, many years ago.

I do not know a lot about Pete yet, but I plan to develop the character as the town get more inhabitants. From his picture I conlude that my character has to be in his sixties, and that he must have married relatively late in life. He must have been in his profession for many years.

The picture of Pete is actually a portrait of Millard Fillmore - the 13th President of the United States, who served from 1850 until 1853.
