The Saga of Baergar and Mûmak:
Baergar was born in sadness as his first cry of life coincided with the death throes of his proud mother. His father, Bolgrind, a king among the dwarves of Kalsgard succommed to grief and spent most of his waking hours hunting dangerous game in hope of a good death. As with all death wishes, Bolgrind's was eventually answered by the legendary Father of Linnorms, Fafnheir. No sooner than word of his father's death reached the capital did Sveinn called Blood-Eagle seize power for himself by presenting the head of a slain linnorm. Baergar was put out of his home to fend for himself. The young dwarf hired himself as a guide and guard to Varisian caravans where he distinguished himself as a canny tracker and a capable peacemaker, for more than once did his quiet menace and iron honor buy safe passage through what would have been a hostile engagement. Some years passed in this manner and Baergar drew ever more inward to himself, often forsaking the companionship of sentient beings for months at a time. Finally, the young ranger decided that he would gain a worthy companion that was as true and honorable as himself. He trooped into the Realm of the Mammoth Lords unannounced, unknown, and uninvited. Through skill at arms, strength of word, and depth of honor, Baergar became a constant symbol in that wild land. Eventually, he encountered a young bull mastodon full of spirit and bravado. The dwarf communed with this noble creature through fleeting encounters for nearly a year before they struck a bond. Baergar remained with Hunrik for so he named the mammoth, as he raised about him a mighty herd becoming a grandsire of his kind. Satisfied that his kin were well cared for by the great tusks of his many sons, Hunrik allowed himself to be turned south to Absalom for Baergar had the itch to adventure. The Pathfinder Society was good to Baergar for a good, long time, but mission after futile mission revealed no end in sight for the endless rivalries facing the society and Baergar became tired of the politics. Baergar and Hunrik traveled north to the Five Kings Mountains hoping to live peacefully among his people. Alas it was not to be. Baergar's skills at arms were undeniable and soon he was convinced, for the greater good, to join the war effort against the Orcs of Belkzen. During this war, mighty Hunrik was slain and Baergar lost himself in a raging grief. He disappeared behind enemy lines alone and was not seen for nearly 10 years. The dwarves of the Sky-Citadels were awestruck when Baergar appeared wearing bracers and belt studded with the ears of hundreds of orcs. On his shoulders, worn as a cloak, was the battle standard of the Blood Worg clan. He had wiped them out, and to this day, none have risen again. The fires of anger and grief subsided, but the mountains of his kin held nothing but sadness now for Baergar. After crafting a fine bone knife from the right tusk of his old friend, he traveled once again to Realm of the Mammoth Lords via the River Kingdoms where he aided, for a small time, a fledgling kingdom recently abandoned by the Brevic lords that had sent them there. Upon reaching the wintery steppes where the mammoth herds flourished, a great, strong bull charged Baergar on sight. Not willing to harm such a noble creature, the dwarf simply kneeled and awaited his death. Amazingly though, the beast stopped short and drew the ivory dagger from Baergar's belt. The creature gazed at it a long time, then turned and presented it to his herd. A mournful, keening chorus of trumpeting calls sounded from the herd long into the night. The whole time, the bull mammoth held aloft the fragment of Hunrik's tusk. Astounded, Baergar wept and wailed along with the mastodons, his grief finally finding the release denied him for so long. When the funeral was completed, The chief male pulled another sizable bull forward and the two locked gazes for a long moment. Each inclined his head to the other, then the first mammoth padded over to a softly sobbing Baergar. It laid the knife on the ground between them and knelt. Baergar, touched beyond words, pressed his forehead into the beast's forehead and whispered. "Your father was my greatest friend, and I gladly accept your friendship and thank you for it. I will name you Mûmak if it please you." The great elephant blew a tremendous blast from its trunk which was answered in kind by the herd. Smiling broadly, Baergar swung up onto the Mûmak's back and the two trooped off into the rising sun. A few more years passed and Baergar dwelt fitfully on the memory of father, unburied and dishonored in the lair of that foul linnorm, Fafnheir. He made up his mind to face the beast. The Grungir forest was quiet and dark when Baergar passed its border. No sooner did his foot pass the threshold that a great wind whipped out from the center of the wood. After a day of walking, Baergar stepped into a clearing of newly felled trees. A booming voice dripping with hatred and malice filled his ears as the draconic beast sneered at his presumption. Their battle lasted one night and two days. After recovering from his wounds, Baergar passed the gates of Kalsgard with the head of the Father of Linnorms and the bones of a long dead dwarven chieftain. Holding aloft the head he called in a loud voice. "Svein Blood-Eagle! You rein is ended and I have come home to claim what is mine!" The aging lord accepted Baergar with a deferential nod, then the shout of the people rang out their acclaim. Word spread throughout the Lands of the Linnorm Kings and Baergar was crowned High King of the Ulfen and Freefolk. He and Mûmak are still boon companions and Baergar rules his people with Justice and Respect.
