Nilyerg Sureshot - Dwarven Marksman Hunter

Once a hunter in the Ek Viriktar, the elite hunters of Dornat Al Karit’s Crown, Nilyerg had trekked many thousands of miles in his day through the gruelling savannah of his homeland. After his forty-second successful hunt, a significant milestone in Dwarven culture, he was given leave to retire. Yet his thirst for the hunt did not end, but an age of injuries were beginning to catch up with him, and his time as a trekker had ended for the harsh savannah. Wishing to see more of the world in his retirement, Nilyerg travelled to the melting pot kingdom of Belfrie, often hearing its name from worldly Dwarves who would trade their stories of lands beyond. At first he felt overwhelmed by the bustling cities of men, finding solace in the vast and green wilds that lay beyond their walls. It was here that he came upon the Crucible, nestled in the far highlands of the kingdom’s north. Curious at first as a spectator, Nilyerg threw his own hat in the ring as he realised many of the fights were not against fellow men, but beasts as well. Though as he rose through the ranks and made a name for himself, his fights became less focused on beasts and more focused on his fellow combatants. Knowing that he would surely find his death, he left, but not long after he was tracked down by Sabre, the Guildmaster of Banimal. Seeing the dwarf’s exploits in the arena, Sabre offered him a place among his company, with a wage that defied refusal. Thus Nilyerg has travelled with the group for the past several months, acting as one of their few marksmen.
