h'Rothgar

h'Rothgar Anvil'bjorn

A dwarven cleric so devoted to the god of the forge and metalwork, he is rarely seen without his hammer and outside his mail armor. h'Rothgar is the son of the prolific (in both forgings and children) Überdvärg Anvil'bjorn. The Anvil'bjorn clan once held a position of prominence in Dorn's Deep under the Wyrm's Tooth glacier of the Spine of the World mountains, but driven out by invaders were forced to scatter and settle where they might be welcome - or at least tolerated. Like many of his siblings, h'Rothgar is born of a dalliance his father had in his travels - but Hildra so loved raising children, she welcomed them all, even the ones with features and skin tones that were clearly other than her own.

h'Rothgar had been a promising cleric in the temples, in fact - even sent to assist a retiring Hierophant in a project down in Waterdeep. Something seems to have gone amiss in that assignment as he made a hasty retreat from there to the far north and now has turned his interests to Rime of the Frostmaiden.

On his journey north, he is said to have had a transcendent vision from Moradin aboard the vessel Twinkle, of Ship Kurth, as it entered the harbor of Neverwinter. He fell to his knees, eyes wide and mouth open on seeing the floating islands" (earthmotes) called Pirate's Skyhold and Fisher's Float just north and south of the harbor.
