Description: Ulfgar carries himself with purpose in all that he does. He is tall for a Haerkglar, with blue eyes and reddish blonde hair in recent times.

Bio: Ulfgar spent his youth dedicating himself to his family and the House of Battle. He found himself an infantry soldier, relegated to guard duties around the main encampment. He understood the job's importance, but secretly he felt a draw to something else. Not quite sure what, he put in an official request to be allowed an assignment that would take him outside of the camp from time to time. It mattered not what the duty was, whether it was escorting couriers, guarding food shipment, or even being sent to help protect workers in the field. He felt he had it in him to do great things for his people, given the chance.

Feeling the call of stone, Ulfgar became blessed by Memnos. His deeds of protection for his people earned him the right to be a priest and practitioner of divine magic in his name. With this he was able to assist his people in further, aiding those on the battlefield and seeking out lost pieces of history. After several years however the pull of the stone and flame revealed itself to be something other than Memnos. Knowing his calling was not in dedication to the Overseer Memnos but to someone else, he set his hammer down and embarked on a new quest.

Becoming a regular traveler through the area of Atalan and High Reaches, many of the older human generation that resided there once will remember him. His pledge to only speak his native tongue and not that of the Trade had set him apart, and many took notice.

Having assisted in bridge and gate fortifications against the restless horde, Ulfgar was honored as a friend of the Syl'vae. This helped in greatly in the pursuit of lost relics of his people hidden away in Maer'Havel.

With the aid of friends and allies Ulfgar discovered the true nature of his calling, service to Hrasqueel. It was not easy, having access to divine powers was something he had come to rely upon more than he thought. After the resurrection of Hrasqueel he discovered a whole new sensation of power, as well as a new purpose in life. Word spread throughout the Haerkglar people and to the ambassadors of other races; a new Speaker of the Stone was named.

Wedding the well known Mererka Stonesplitter, their union was blessed by Hrasqueel herself. The times he has ventured from the fortress have been rare over the last 60 years, as there is much to be done for his own people, but there yet may be a time when he is required to set foot upon the road again. Only time will tell.
