Jarl Frostriven was a dwarven Jarl in command of a Rebel force under warlord Blackwyn. Under Frostriven served such heroes as Tinker Geely and Zenephret. In his possession was the relic axe Gatekeeper.

## Appearance

Frostriven had a big ginger beard in many locks and a bald head. He was of average height for a dwarf and wore a horned helmet when in battle.

## History

When Zenephret arrived at the Glen she told Frostriven, who was waiting there in a room with an unfinished Geargoyle, about Tinker Geely's refusal to come - Jarl predicted that Geely would act this way. The Rebels then made a plan, sending an envoy to Fickett Townley and Rajidon that would lead them back here. Once they'll have the final components to the Geargoyles, they could begin their attack and free the Dwarves working in the nearby Magestone mine.

Zenephret and Jarl Frostriven then hurried to the scene of the battle between Jason, Kerraii and three Mage Spawn - the monsters have already been dispatched when they arrived, however. Jarl and Zenephret then escorted the two Rebels to the base back at the Glen. Frostriven then explained the Rebels' situation as of now - though they were able to keep the Geargoyle Golems under cover, an Atlantean scout spied a compliment of their forces move into the area. They had to throw everything they had at the Atlanteans just to cover themselves as they moved the Golems into hiding. Lieutenant Rajidon, Skyros and Fickett Townley then arrived with the missing component for the powerful golems - their heads.

It took four days to get the Geargoyles working, and so, in four days, just before the dark, Jarl Frostriven rallied the Rebel forces with a speech, saying that there was no room for mistakes in the assault they were about to partake in. Once they'll hear the allied Dwarves sound the horn, the forces will move out of the shadows and attack the Atlantean strip-mine. The rebels hoped to take the Guild forces by surprise, but Tiasma, the Oracle of Rokos allied with Atlantis leaked the information from Tinker Geely's mind that the Rebels were planning an attack, ruining their plan completely.

It was simply a massacre. As the dwarven troops - assisted by the formidable forces of Rajidon's Black Powder Rebels - initiated their raid on the Atlantean Magestone mines in an attempt to free their ensalved brethren the skies above suddenly filled with death as spears and concussive blasts of magical energies rained down on them from the newly arrived Atlantean fortresses. And although the flying forts had some blind spots, the ground troops were signaling to them, making passing unnoticed of one impossible. Rajidon ordered for all men to retreat with the battle now lost - Zenephret and others escaped back to the Glen.

All the remaining Rebel forces then gathered, downtrodden after the defeat, but Rajidon proposed a plan - the Atlanteans now thought the Rebel forces discouraged and too beaten to make another attack, but there was an upside to the failed attack - the Guild's secrets were exposed. With their flying fortresses out in the open, the Rebels now had to use stealth to overcome them - Jason then told the Galeshi that the fortresses had blind spots under them. The human warrior also told of an outpost where Utems were positioned to signal to the fortresses - if they could take out that outpost, it would make the fortresses powerless. Kerraii then proposed to lead the attack to the signaling outpost, getting Jason, Zenephret and Talver with her. By the dark, they would have to be in the outpost already.

Frostriven agreed to the plan, while Skyros proposed his - he wanted to make bombs using Gas Toads that could be hurled into the Atlantean sky fortresses using catapults, but needed the latter to be built for the plan to work. Sprinting off to the place where the Elementals ambushed Rajidon, Skyros left - and told Frostriven not to start until he came back. Sunset has come quickly, and Frostriven sent his scouting party ahead. Once Kerraii and others signaled that they eliminated the ground troops, the Rebels will strike fast and hard. There was no room for error.

With no sign from Kerraii's party, Skyros came with the bombs and delivered them to the catapults - launching the Gas Toads unto the fortresses proved successful, knocking out most of the guards and letting Kerraii's party safely sneak unto the flying forts to kill Jadron Medaan and Tiasma, winning the campaign with the Atlantean leader dead. Frostriven then was seen celebrating with his fellow rebels their big victory in the Glen, drinking beer and eating good meat.
