I'tandar was born in New Wath and was thrown out of his father's mill to prove himself on the streets when he was four. By the age of eight, he had performed twelve feats. He became the leader of a street gang. He earned his name when he kicked down a gaol's wall. As he grew, he became more and more revered for his prowess. As an adult, he went to the Arena of Kren'poltar, and then later he became a mercenary in the north of Palhur. There, he met Father Hrundaun and agreed to join him on his quest.
