Backstory:
Abroshqalmie grew up in human lands, and like all gnomes often managed to get himself into trouble with his innate desire for jokes and fun, coupled with his curiosity. Early in his life he was fascinated with religions, particularly the “human” religions despite never really believing in the gods himself. Not that he was an atheist, not being stupid, but he just never really cared for them, other than the stories behind them. During a visit to one of the temples of Saraenrae where he was studying the “mythos” he saw an opportunity for the ultimate prank.
He crept behind one of the large burning torches (think the Olympic flame) he began to speak to an young acolyte, as if he was the avatar of his goddess. He put the boy through an embarrassing series of tasks and eventually had him with his back turned to the flames. Abroshqualmie climbed up onto the pedestal ready to grab the young man and he slipped, falling into the flame he screamed and threw his arms out to stop his fall. His arms burned almost instantly but in that moment he heard the Goddess speaking to him. She offered to save him from the flame if he would become her servant. He agreed. He was saved from death but to this day his arms are blackened and charred up to the elbows. He accepts the pain readily and travels the world in Saraenrae’s name, doing her will and dealing with the strange looks he receives as one of the few Gnomes of her faith.
