Irnar Firebeard

Irnar Firebeard was a dwarven cleric that was among the first to explore the frontiers of Eskarya. 
== Background ==
Irnar was born in Mithral Hall in the Silver Marches, as son of a Dwarven blacksmith, inheriting the hair of red colouring and particular plenty upon his face that gave his clan its name, set to follow in his father’s footsteps, and thus apprenticed at a young age to another master of the smithies in the great underground hall. After some years, Irnar showed skill in the craft of the smiths, but reading the legends and myths, he was drawn to a different lifestyle. Priests spoke of Dugmaren Brightmantle, who provided knowledge beyond the practical application of skills, necessary to bring forth the inventions of the Dwarves that nonetheless always made them progress over the centuries, going beyond the well-known forms of life in the great halls of the smiths.
Thus, Irnar ended his apprenticeship and left Mithral Hall, to wander the world overground instead, exploring it for knowledge not known to him before, and built a close relationship to the God of Knowledge and Exploration over time. He wandered alone through the lands in the Northwest, learning both the wisdom of his God and skills needed for survival, as his desire for knowledge grew to not only encompass new discoveries of his own, but also those known to neither man nor dwarf before altogether.
An excellent opportunity for the now already seasoned Cleric and Explorer provided itself when from Waterdeep left a ship to distant lands beyond the sea, and so Irnar joined the travellers setting out for Eskarya, hoping to assist them with the knowledge he had gained, as well as hoping his participation would help with the acquisition of more knowledge provided with the will of his God.
As a Cleric of Dugmaren Brightmantle, Irnar seeks knowledge for its own sake, and thus the journey to Eskarya, to lands no Dwarf has seen before, is a culmination of his previous pilgrimages on which he had explored the lands east of the ocean, driven by the desire to seek new findings, in a nature untouched by any known forces.Category:Player Characters
