Biography
Ironpaw started his Amtgard career in September 1990 in Dragonspine. Except for a short stint enforcing the king’s will in Shadowvale during the mid 90’s, Ironpaw has always resided in Dragonspine. By his own account, he joined Amtgard for the roleplaying and with the hopes of getting beyond first base with his future wife Quicksilver. This attitude pretty much set the stage for the rest of Ironpaw's career in Amtgard.
Once a Saracen Chieftain, Ironpaw is now the captain of the Sterling Dogs, a fighting company started in Dragonspine that has since expanded to the rest of Amtgard via the Wetlands, the Celestial Kingdom, Rising Winds, and the Iron Mountains.
Flurby Bio
Ironpaw was born to a Wolf-rider elf and a High One on the world of Two Moons. He spent most of his youth as a solitary nomad, traveling through the world hunting, dodging trolls, and generally minding his own business. What little contact he had among the other elves in the world was sporadic and strained at best. What contact he had with the humans usually ended in blood shed.
Traveling through the mountains and forests of Two-Moons, Ironpaw fell through a rift to a mountainous region of Earth near the Icelandic town of Reykjavik. Unable to convince the locals he was neither an Alf nor from Alfheim, Ironpaw soon set out into the wilds. Eventually realizing he was in the homelands of the humans, he took to deception, hiding his racial features to sign on to Viking ships, traveling the world as a raider, guardsmen, and mercenary.
It wasn't until nearly two centuries later when Ironpaw once again found himself thrown through the vortex of time and space to find himself on the fields of Dragonspine, a newly founded outpost and Barony of the Burning Lands. It was here, along with the humans he had lived with for years, that he found others of his own kind, elves who had come from Two moons. One in particular, Quicksilver, caught his fancy. Caught without home or possession, he was soon adopted by the Lord and Lady of House Chaos, Sir Delphos and Sir Esuom. "Raising" him, they taught him the ways of the new world as well as service and civility. Taking the red belt from his foster father as a squire, Ironpaw took up the mantle of the gentlemen villain.
He has resided in Dragonspine for the last 18 years, making a home and name for himself. During that time he has served at the reins of the kingdom as well as its defender and voice in vassal lands.
