Background:
Thergal Stonesmith is a wild dwarf, hailing from the bark biter tribe who are river earring tribe deep in the wilds of Chult. He is rather unremarkable for his tribe. His father and namesake lost his right eye and much use of his right leg I a raptor attack. He contended to serve the tribe however through his knack for crafting exceptional (and some might say enchanted) tools a weapons for the young hunters…a skill many think he got from his mother, who serves as the villages shaman and storyteller.

What little contact the tribe had with the outside world is confined to trade with adventurers or wanders who frequently travel the rivers that pass through their hunting grounds. As well as trade, many young hunters serve outsiders as guides and escorts through the jungle for a modest fee of steel, or other tolls that he tribe could make use of, to ensure that that the intentions of the travelers are no me, and foil their efforts if they are not. More than one party who intended harm to the jungle, or the people within has vanished as a result of allowing their savage guide to discover their foul intent. This is considered a rite of passage as well as a great honor among the tribesmen.

It was acting as a guide that Thergal first decided to venture to the outside world. Until that point Thergal was a hunter of only modest accomplishment, slightly more frail then most his kin however from a young age he felt connected to nature, and was able to find his way in the jungle with an ease that was far beyond his years, or apparent talent. His grandmother saw the touch of the wild in him, and would take him into the jungle for extended trips. What occurred in his time mother Thergal nor the shaman would say, however the hunters of the village often found bear and dwarven tracks intermingled in the jungles shortly after they returned. During his right of passage acting as a guide, Thergal accompanied a group of flaming fist mercenaries on one of their forays into the jungle. During his trip, he met a dwarf who was unlike anything he had known. He told stories of living underground, and the wonders of the lands around the city of Baldur’s Gate. He was amazed by the stories, and knowing that he must see these lands, Thergal managed to trade what goods he had for passage on a ship returning to the city of Baldur’s Gate.

Goals:
- To explore the land around Baldulrs Gate, and return to his homeland an accomplished druid, accomplished enough to make up for his rash choice to leave his homeland.
Possible Plot-Hook Ideas and Misc Facts:
-Aside from a few ancient dwarven runes used of marking trails, Thergal cannot read or write any language. He is also uneducated in a form aside from survival skills.
-Even now that he has spent a considerable time now in the gate, he still sees everything through a pack or tribal mentality lens. He feels most comfortable in a pack or a tribal structure, and concepts such a democracy and bureaucratic forms of government are alien to him.
-Thergal has little force of personality. He has never Helena leader I his tribe, and has little desire or ability to lead. He is more comfortable taking orders then giving them, and tends to only give guidance
