Background

Arald grew up in the royal castle under his father King Vandil’s rule. His mother, Queen Asta Lifebringer, played a pivotal role in his upbringing. He looked to his older sister, Princess Ariel Ironhammer, for guidence. At an early age, Arald found the orphan Alyndra who was caught stealing from an unruly merchant and took her as his own slave.

The two of them became inseparable and developed a close friendship. They trained together under Master Saward and studied under Master Thena.

They also were trained by Prince Borlann just like Arald’s father King Vandil. While living in the dwarven capital Mighholdir, Arald developed the strength of a dwarve and the craftsmanship of their people as well. He became a great blacksmith in both weapons and armor.
