Hajar Stoutsong
Just when I think this world has shown me all its wonders, it surprises me once more. I wonder what secrets still lie ahead and the secrets it kept from me already. I may only have one more volume to write beyond this, but rest assured I will continue hunting.
Appearance & Personality
Hajar Stoutsong is a Mountain Dwarf, hailing from the capital of Khul Boldir, his naturally paler skin tanned from years of travel in sunnier climates. His auburn hair is braided neatly, as is his beard. On his travels, he is known to wear hardened leather armour for protection, but often displays curios and souvenirs from his travels, in rotation, upon his person. Far from the stoic stereotypes, from those that have met him, Hajar is supposed the life of the party. A vibrant and curious personality that will never pass up the opportunity for a conversation, and rest assured he will always find something interesting to discover and discuss with you. Hajar is a Dwarf capable of prising even the deepest of secrets from folk. It is said that Hajar's works only contain a fraction of the knowledge he has gathered across the years, some secrets he has deigned not to share.Origin of the Explorer
As a member of the Scholar's Guild of Khul Boldir, Hajar had access to one of the greatest repositories of information in the world: De Arkaive. Hajar is reported to have been a particularly curious student growing up, even for an Arkaemist (the term for a student of the Scholar's Guild). Once graduated, as an Arkaevist, Hajar grew dissatisfied even with the vast knowledge held in De Arkaive, notably with the lack of knowledge of the current world. In order to bring their knowledge up to date, Hajar vowed to travel the world in its entirety. Hajar set off in 541PC and began his work in his own land, the Dwarven and Gnomish lands of Aldenia.Notable Achievements & Insights
Hajar has achieved the following:- He is one of only a few people to have entered the Twisted Forest and survived, the others being members of the travelling party he was with.
- He is thought to be the only individual to have met all the Warlords of Mazvinga
