Born in a home built on top of a mountain not too far from the dwarven city of Urguan , Leifr Ironbeard Jr. was born to a moderately well off family, living with his mother, father, and his uncles and aunts. Although not rich, Leifr lived decently well, being taught all the basics: fighting, smithing, surviving in the mountains, etc.. Here, he was taught of the grand lore and history of the dwarves. Growing up, he was quite lonely, having only his direct family by him. Instead on focusing on things like social skills, he trained his fighting and survival skills. In particular, he trained often with his father, Leifr Sr., a veteran of the Nordlandic army, serving in the War of Two Emperors. Once he reached the ripe old age of 40, he moved to Sutica for work, specifically bounty hunting and other odd jobs, intending to settle down once he eventually feels satisfied with his wealth. He also really hoped for adventure, as life in the mountains was rather boring.
