Some would say that a life devoted to studying the arcane arts is strange for a dwarf. Dolgar was born with a vast curiosity of the world, which always made him a bit of an outsider. Considered too eccentric, Dolgar grew up wanting to know how everything worked. His parents were always a little disappointed with him, as they come from a long line of smiths. Yet they knew that he would not be truly happy living a simple life. When he came of age, a life studying the ways of the world seemed an obvious choice for him.
He began his apprenticeship with Kolgan Redhammer, a wizard who lived close to Dolgar’s ancestral home. Dolgar took it upon himself to learn as much as he can, constantly burying himself in tomes on magic and its history. Eventually, he mastered the basics of spellcasting. However, he continued to desire to learn more, and realizing that a life holed up in the library would not work for him, he decided to set out and see what he could learn from the world around him.
