He was raised too childhood in the servants quarters rarely speaking to anyone but the servants or leaving the servant quarters. Around his eigth birthday he was called into "The masters" chambers. Oran was told that he had come of age to begin working to pay his way, after a short exchange The Master called his steward and had Oran beaten savagely to keep him in his place as he was a disgusting dwafling that was not worthy of the air he breathed.

           The next day Oran was put to work at The Masters forge learning the ins and outs of the trade from some books from the Masters library. On his sixteenth birthday having had enough Oran gathered his sparse belongings to himself in the dark of night and set out to find the place of his birth and make a name for himself among the dwarves.
