Additional Information

The Dabbings family's contributions to Icemule Trace are long and historic. Since Talliver's ancestor, Talbot Dabbings, sacrificed himself to end the Krolvin War almost two hundred years ago, the Dabbings name has been synonymous with heroism and selflessness. Far from being overshadowed by his family name, Talliver Dabbings has distinguished himself over the years as part of the Icemule Town Guard, having led a platoon south during the Griffin Sword War to march to the aid of the Resistance. Since then, Dabbings has risen to the position of captain.

Dabbings's platform in the 5120 elections centered around improving Icemule Trace's security as a gateway to improving tourism, trade, and growth. He believed strongly in improving relations with local tribes, such as the greater ice giants and lesser ice giants, and enhancing the safety and usability of trails connecting Icemule Trace to Wehnimer's Landing. He firmly endorsed improving the town's defenses and focusing on making the town a more vital part of the Elanthian community.

In his own words: "I'm not a politician. I'm a soldier. I've served Icemule Trace on the field and I want to serve the town in its highest office. I know when to seek advice and when decisions need to be made. I hope you'll join me."
