Born in the far north in the Kingdom of Norland, Háraldr lived a rather normal childhood, or well whatever you may call a normal childhood for a Norlander. His mother and father were, just your common village folk but a rather handy craftsmen at that! His father being a smith has helped Háraldr quite a lot in forging and teaching him somewhat of a skills in it. That is if Háraldr wasn't a lazy swine of a bastard and didn't forget all of it. At the age of 25 he got kicked out of the house to make a name for himself. And so nowadays Hárdaldr is wandering around trying to as was stated prior to this, make a name for himself be it, a mercenary for hire, or whatever is there to be offered for a young Nórlandian.
