History
Skippy Irongut was born sometime in Aegis as the son of Algrim Irongut, the then current king of Kal'Urguan. He was brought up as a lumberjack and a miner, first having a job as a Kal'Urguan lumberjack then assisting in running the Kal'Urguan mining guild. Skippy owned estate in Kal'Urguan, his poor house and his above ground district home. Within his time in Aegis, Skippy kept to around Kal'Urguan, the Irongut Manor, and sometimes you'd see him in the Kingdom of Alras.
Upon entering the Verge, Skippy had followed the rest of the Dwarves of Kal'Urguan to Tazarak and built a small village under the mountains of the alliance, named Eden. Skippy's time in Eden was uneventful, and eventually him and the citizens of The Verge traveled to Asulon.
In Asulon, Skippy quickly followed the rest of his kin to Kal'Karik. He lived in Kal'Karik until Darius Irongut left to create a mining colony named Kal'Dwain. Skippy moved from Kal'Karik to Kal'Dwain to help settle the city, and to help run the mining guild. In the coming days Skippy would mine, build, and drink until drakes attacked the city of Kal'Dwain. Skippy took part in the battle, killing a drake himself. While there he witnessed the return of the Wandering Wizard. The following days in Asulon, Skippy took part in numerous events. Battles, raids, diplomatic meetings, he had done all of it. He had also dived into the Dwarven religion, becoming the High Prophet at one point during Asulon. He had defended Kal'Alras from conquesting orcs, burnt down the flags of House Flay, and even sat on the throne of Oren with his fellow Dwarves around him. In the last days of Asulon, Skippy got separated from the dwarves and was lost until Athera.
Up until late Athera, the Dwarf known as Skippy Irongut was missing. He returned during the Dwarven war with Oren, wishing to restore the Dwarven race to what it was in Asulon. He fought in the Battle of Hiebenhall, striking down 10 human soldiers from the wall of Hiebenhall, barely surviving a flaming arrow that went into his shoulder. He later took part in numerous raids and smaller battles until the war had ended. A few years had passed and the Dwarves and orcs had begun an honor war, to find our the mightiest of the two.
