Harlen Raskin runs the Rolling Wheel, which serves the common folk of Woodmen-town. He crafts sturdy carts and repairs shattered axles with practised efficiency. Harlan is a good-hearted, no-nonsense craftsman who values durability and practicality over fanciness. He’s prone to muttering about how things were “built better back in my day” but secretly delights in finding ways to improve his designs.

Harlen "Old Wheel" Raskin is a 58 year old man. He is a wiry man with a bushy moustache and calloused hands, always smelling of sawdust and oil. He wears a simple work shirt and trousers, his sleeves perpetually rolled up. His left eye is cloudy from an old injury, but he still sees well enough to judge the balance of a wheel with uncanny precision.
