▲Alekan Indrothath was a Dwarf-At-Arms and the brother of '''[[Geraint Indrothath]]'''. The two brothers utilised their skills as Dwarves-At-Arms as mercenaries. Alekan was noted for generally being quite aloof, but would have unexpected periods of formality and seriousness.
Yemel, despite taking in his bastard children, was not a kind father, often yelling and verbally abusing his children in a drunken stupor.
▲Alekan and Geraint were the illegitimate children of '''[[Lord Yemel Indrothath]]'', who became infamous for his corruption. The two brothers, of which Alekan was the oldest, were subject to Yemel's 'teachings', which consisted of how to manipulate trade and people and how to make money and allies as fast as possible.
=== Becoming an Outlaw ===
▲Yemel, despite taking in his bastard children, was not a kind father, often yelling and verbally abusing his children in a drunken stupor. Alekan, often-times becoming the target of Yemel's yelling, strangle grew to become a fairly laid-back and indifferent individual, as early on he had decided that he would simply endure his father's beratement and move on.
At 32, Alekan and his brother fled Yemel's Manor after an inspection of the manor due to reports of illegal substances being smuggled through the area. The brothers

▲At 32, Alekan and his brother fled Yemel's Manor after an inspection of the manor due to reports of illegal substances being smuggled through the area. The brothers travelled far through the wilderness, eventually coming upon the '''[[Koreggi Mountains]]''' in the south of '''[[Bormar]]'''. Within this mountain-range, the brothers came across a band of '''[[Grol]]''' mercenaries, led by a Grol named '''[[Al Toko]]'''. The brothers exchanged knowledge of potential wealthy targets for protection and eventually both the Grol and the brothers grew to trust each other.
Following the failed assassination attempt, the brothers heard word of an '''[[Zietal Mar|Outpost]]''' far off the west coast of Bormar which was attracting some attention that could serve as an escape from their outlaw status. The brothers overheard
▲Following multiple years of successful business with the Grol, and one year before travelling to Zietal Mar, the brothers were contacted to assassinate a fairly wealthy '''[[Apothecary]]''' in the town of '''[[Mogen]]''', a short distance north of the Koreggi Mountains. The brothers accepted this mission and headed north. Under the cover of night they set alight the Apothecary's home, causing the death of his wife and child. However the Dwarves were unaware that the Apothecary was away on business.
▲Following the failed assassination attempt, the brothers heard word of an '''[[Outpost]]''' far off the west coast of Bormar which was attracting some attention. The brothers overheard rumours of a wealthy '''[[Governance Of Bormar|Lord]]''' sponsoring the outpost. The brothers decided to travel to the outpost, intrigued by the thought of ancient riches and a new start.
Alekan arrived at a time when Zietal Mar was being threatened by the levels of Grol mercenaries on the island. After some time, Alekan's brother Geraint was killed in these conflicts, creating hatred in Alekan of the mercenaries. The All-Gem had been discovered by Zietal Mar's Governor '''[[Khestor Thidirlun]]''', and the traitorous actions of First Lord Voman Stoutheart forced the Dwarves to flee the island aboard their ship, ''The Cuckoo''. However, Alekan decided to stay behind and not give up the Outpost without a fight. He was joined only by Kogan Gemesh in this last stand.
Alekan mediated with a Grol messenger who appeared at Zietal Mar, claiming that he and Kogan were the only remaining Dwarves on
▲== In The Outpost ==
▲Alekan mediated with a Grol messenger, claiming that he and Kogan were the only remaining Dwarves on '''[[Chapter One|The Archipelago]]''', and the others had left with the All-Gem. Alekan refused the messenger's request to meet with '''[[Lord Voman Stoutheart]]''' unarmed, and, in consultation with Kogan, fired the first shot, and began the '''[[The Fate Of Zietal Mar|Final Stand of Zietal Mar]]''' with the murder of the Grol messenger.
▲Following a stalemate at '''[[Fort Thidir]]''', the Grol and Alekan agreed to a duel, on the condition that should he win, the Grol shall leave the outpost, and should he fail, the Dwarves be taken captive. Alekan began to skirmish with a '''[[Grol Bejji|Bejji]]''', which Alekan dispatched with a shortsword.

▲'''[[Harji]]''', a Grol shaman, claiming the Grol's greatest warrior would never be defeated unless through some vile trickery refused to honour the deal, resumed the battle.
▲Alekan began an attempt to escape the Outpost, but was restrained by Kogan who wished to die with honour. Shortly afterwards, the Grol horde breached Fort Thidir, and the last two Dwarves escaped the Outpost, living feral for a year, before an expeditionary party to the archipelago discovered them and returned them to Bormar.

With their return, Kogan and Alekan testified to the '''[[First House]]''' on First Lord Voman Stoutheart's
