Ikurn was born in the Oren empire and lived beside his fathers smithy, always curiously watching his craft. His father would tell him stories of the Dominion of Malin where he was born. It wasn't until he was a young man and his mother passed from illness that he took up his father’s craft. He lived there assisting his father until he too passed away from illness. He now wishes to continue his art and become the greatest smith there is.
