My childhood friend, Ulder Ravenguard is the reason I became
a member of the Flaming Fist. Both of
our fathers were blacksmiths in the Lower City of Baldur’s Gate. I had one younger brother named Lotgeir and Ulder
had three older brothers, so he knew he had almost no hope of inheriting his
father’s forge.
Because of this, by the time we were both around 10,, he
had put his name on the list for consideration as Flaming Fist cadets (I signed
up in moral support of my friend and Lotgeir put his name in because he had to
do everything that I did)
Ulder’s oldest brother’s name was Wolfdar. The other two were twins: Veit and Vondal.
If Ulder had been my motivation for joining the Flaming
Fist; I became a Paladin of Gond because of Duke Torlin Silvershield.
He was (and is) the leader of the city’s greatest patriar house
as well as High Priest of it’s Gondar Temple, the opulent High House of
Wonders.
