Nalayna Liadon

Information learned through recent RP with Gunthar, The Glade Druid, who knew Anora Firmheart now Minesmasher's parents when she was but a babe. ~

Anora's biological father was an elf who disappeared when her forest dwarf mother named Illyanna showed signs of being with babe. Illyanna then married a dwarven lad named Ysengar. Later they went to a battle with uruks but hid away Anora before doing so. She loses her parents in this battle. Anora then grows up away from dwarves and develops her farming abilities on her own based upon her natural talents and the little that she had learned from her mother before she had died.

Thus her being half elf & half forest dwarf gives reason for her height, burgundy hair, lighter skin color, & natural ability with farming.
