====== Background ======
===== Lineage =====
Son of William Caerneson. Unlike his brother [[gaeleth:people:Telamon Williamson]], Liam was given his first name for his father and surname for his grandfather out of respect. Liam is [[gaeleth:figures:Caerne of Giranhad]]'s firstborn grandson through William (Caerne's firstborn son) and Esmerelda.\\
\\
===== Early Life =====
From an early age Liam had a knack for fixing things whether it be a simple tool such as a scythe or a broken set of armor. He took to smithing like a moth to flame - never turning down a job due to complexity. He found a great sense of pride and accomplishment when completing a complicated repair.\\
\\
He was also fond of his step grandmother, Kaala, and her teaching. As an elf, she had to work twice as hard as a human to gain advancement and the work ethic rubbed off on Liam. Her love for her god struck a chord with Liam and he began to follow her teachings even closer. <to be continued>\\
\\
After helping set up [[gaeleth:places:Caerne's Place]], Liam moved to [[gaeleth:places:River Crown]] to continue his smithing apprenticeship under master blacksmith [[gaeleth:figures:Sir Tucker Stonehart]]. <to be continued>\\
