Origin:
The village of Blumberg was a tiny establishment nestled in the foothills of the Nether Mountains. It is said "was" because Blumberg was sacked by Gnolls. It was during this attack that Bor Bersk had been grazing his cattle and oxen by the River Rauvin. The grasses grew more lush north of the High Forest.
When Bor so the pillars of smoke rising from his village he rushed home and took up arms defending those trying to escape. Battering Gnolls aside he was unable to stem the tide yet many survivors were able to flee to shore. Bor followed soon after knowing the river to be their only means of escape.

The remaining townfolk were jumping into the river and swarming rafts unable to hold but a few at most. When Bor arrived he quickly yolked his oxen and secured lines to several rafts. A merchant vessel heading to Lhuvenhead saw the panic and was netting people who had haphazardly swam out into the river.

Knowing the Gnoll raiders would be along shortly, Bor had one last chance to save the remaining survivors. With uncanny strength he dislodged the small dock from the shore and shoved it into the shallows. Climb aboard QUICKLY! The whimpering leftovers needed no further instruction as they rushed to the makeshift barge. Bor quickly wrangled his remaining cattle and leashed them to the dock swimming out with them into the River Rauvin.

It was said that Bor Bersk brought the shores of Rauvin closer together that day. He now travels across the land lending his strength and agricultural knowledge to those in need. His heroic deed precedes him in the land of the Rauvin Vale. He is commonly referred to by the people as The Bridge.
