Saaniema is large town on the westhern coast of the Reanaarian Bay. For those of you who have never heard of the Kingdoms of Kalamar I suggest you get a copy of the corebook immediately. It will also give you the chance to look the town up.<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> First I will related each character's backround, followed by an introduction session and on the fourth session all of them will gathered at the same place/time. So here it goes....Rovak Ulberk Kaldarr (Dwarven male Ranger 2)Rovak was born in the year 1845 Year of Kaldarr's Founding (682 YND), the son of Fragaz and Mieka. He grew up in the dwarven town of Kazul'eruk buried under Mount Kazul in the northern reaches of the Vrykkar mountains. The first twenty five years of is life passed quickly learning the basic skills of a dwarven prospector under Fragaz and his letters under is mother Mieka, a stonecutter by profession. Soon Rovak was deemed old enough to travel with is father and those were is happiest years but the would not last. During these years the presence of Frost giants increased in the valleys of Mount Kazul and many brave dwarven soldiers died fighting them. The Frost giants were finally driven back in the high frozen peaks they came from but not before the human villages supplying the dwarven people with food were either deserted or destroyed. These events would mark the beginning of Kazul'eruk's fall. As the battles against the Frost giants were fought large groups of Troglodyte moved into the lower levels of Kazul'eruk's mines, the underground tunnels connecting with Kaldarr'eruk and the other dwarven communities. By Rovak's 35th birthday (1880 YKF) the war against the Troglodytes had taken its toll on the people of Kazul'eruk and the other dwarven communities. No matter how many warriors they would send none were able to reopen a safe passage to Kazul'eruk, not even mighty Prince Kaldarr. Hard pressed to protect their home from the Troglodyte invasion and running low on food it was decided that Fragaz would mount an expedition for Kaldarr'eruk. They traveled in the high peaks of the Vrykkar mountains, east toward the Canton of Minterbast to purchase food from the gnomes. The road was uneventful but tracks of many goblinoid bands and giants were seen. Once the Canton was reached, the mules were packed with food and the troop headed back to Kazul'eruk. Only Fargaz, a dwarven warrior and a loaded mule would continue the trip to Kaldarr'eruk. That was the last time Rovak saw is father. The supply expedition returned home guided by Rovak, to find it infested by Troglodytes and there brethren slaughtered. The leader of the party ordered Rovak to find Fargaz and warn the Prince Kaldarr of Kazul'seruk's fall.While he crossed one of the lower valleys, Rovak was captured by a Hill giant who keep him as a slave for those hard to scratch places. Anyway he was to small a meal for Grell's tastes. A week or two later Grell's was traveling north toward the Rokk woods in the Jenth ridge when he was savagely attacked by a middle aged Dejy prospecting the area for gold. It was thus that Rovak was saved by Rajani the ranger and he was taken under is wing.At first they traveled to Kaldarr'eruk to find Rovak's father but Fargaz never reached the city. The Prince who had already heard of Kazul'eruk's fate was not to happy to see a reminder of is failure and Rovak was grudgingly invited to choose another clan. From now on the name of Kazul'eruk would not spoken nor the named of clan Ulberk to be uttered. Feeling rejected by is people Rovak, left Kaldarr'eruk never to return.For nearly twenty years he travelled along the Jenth Ridge with Rajani looking for gold and fighting the monsters plaguing the area. Rovak grew wise in the ways of the wild under the tutelage of is master, he also learned the skills necessary to fight goblinoids, troglodytes and the rare giants roaming the eastern Vrykkar mountains. It was also during this period that Rovak was introduced to the mysteries of Thyjyk "The Earth Mother and Mother of all Elements" until in the year 734 YND when Rajani died of old age. Unable to bear the familiar sights of the Jenth Ridge, Rovak feeling alone decided to cross the Vrykkar mountains and he reached the city-state of Saaniema. He spent the last ten years searching the Vry Nassau and the Sotai Gagalia Headlands for gold and other riches. Two years ago he discovered a secret shrine to the Mother of Elements hidden in the bowel of a massive stony hill. Since then he as maintained the little shrine and established residence in it's security.</blockquote>
