Andrash was born a bastard in a northern Kellish nomad tribe, with an unknown father and a mother who died soon after his birth. Without family or status, Andrash struggled to prove his worth and provide for himself in the clan. Because of his low status, he was a natural target for the bullying and attacks of the other children, and he soon learned how to fight defensively and stoically suffer the blows that did get through. Andrash was also bookish and intelligent, which didn't lessen his tormenters' attentions in the slightest.

Upon reaching adolescence, Andrash gained an apprenticeship with a sympathetic smith who taught him the ways of the forge. Andrash soon discovered a talent and liking for the work, and diligently applied himself to the trade. Upon reaching journeyman's status and fulfilling his apprenticeship contract, Andrash parted ways from his tribe and looked elsewhere for work, leaving his past behind.

Andrash found his way into Ustalav, where he earned his coin with mercenary work and crafting weapons and armor. By chance, he stumbled upon Professor Lorrimor in Caliphas, as the distinguished academic was being menaced by a trio of thugs who were after gold but perfectly happy to settle for blood. Andrash dealt the thugs a medium-sized beating and drove them off. Talking with the Professor, Andrash was fascinated by his vast knowledge and wit, and traveled with him for some time. Eventually, Lorrimor left for a distant lecture series, and Andrash won a bid to provide armorer services to a mercenary band for several years. The two men drifted out of contact, and Andrash had put Lorrimor almost out of his mind when notice reached him of the Professor's death.

Mournfully, Andrash travelled to the funeral to pay his respects, and figure out what the old man left for him. He hopes it's textbooks.
