Grennyra Warper hails from the ancient underground city of Arrowforge, where twisted tunnels burrow deep beneath towering mountains. Born into a clan of proud dwarven warriors, she is raised with love yet instilled with the virtues of discipline and honor. Arrowforge thrives on its export of magnificent metals embedded within its denizens' souls, and Grennyra's family finds sustenance and pride in being humble yet diligent miners.
In Grennyra's eighth year, tragedy strikes. A cave-in at the heart of the mines delivers unseen brutality. The ensuing plume of toxic gas claims her mother's life and leaves a heartrending void in the family. Grennyra, now cloaked in despair, happens upon an occasional visitor to Arrowforge - a retired dwarven warrior named Dardaughn.
Sensing the sorrow seeping from the young girl's heart, Dardaughn becomes her mentor. With his guidance, Grennyra hones her natural abilities, shaping them into potent tools with which to survive a harsh world and protect those she loves most. In time, she blooms into an accomplished warrior, donning luminous armor forged from the essence of her people.
Currently, Grennyra serves the city of Arrowforge as the Captain of the Guards, responsible for shielding the city's inhabitants from external danger. As part of her duty to ensure the citizen's safety, she develops an inviolable friendship with Elinyaria, a fellow guard.
Throughout dwarven lands, Grennyra and Elinyaria become renowned not only for their battlefield prowess but also for their camaraderie and loyalty, inspiring others to devote themselves to guarding Arrowforge. Together with her allies, Grennyra embarks on monumental quests to keep their beloved city safe.
In the midst of her demanding work, Grennyra secretly yearns for the joys of motherhood, yearning for the unconditional love she herself once received. With her daughter born, Grennyra struggles to balance her warrior's heart with that of a mother. Yet, even amid the chaos of life, she lives by an uncompromising creed: "If we falter, oblivion surely follows."
Overseen by Grennyra, peace bears reign upon Arrowforge. Eerily, whispers of her prowess awaken Goblin King G'mar and incite an envy he cannot quell. Inciting destruction, G’mar declares war on the unsuspecting city. Grennyra, with brilliant intuition, perceives the brewing conflict and rises to the challenge that entices her inner fire.
Between commanding the defense and nurturing her young, Grennyra nevertheless finds time for an unlikely passion: the art of aerodynamics. In her workshop adjacent to Arrowforge's gate, she molds curved and engraved metal wings. It is both a crime against dwarven principles and her means to forge a unique path, replicating dwarven flight long-forgotten.
In battle, though a fierce warrior, Grennyra is haunted by the specter of her mother's fate. The events that took her loved one taint Grennyra's soul and burden her confidence. She fears to lose again, a fear that echoes through the entirety of her life.
As she prepares to defend Arrowforge, Grennyra encourages herself, her friends, and the city's inhabitants with her most famous quote, "We are warriors, forged of hearts and souls, and we shall never falter!" Yet, as war roars and steely cries rend the air, something quiet and inscrutable lies beneath the surface, a mystery that dances tantalizingly around the edges of Grennyra's consciousness. The secret to true dwarven flight teases her thoughts, fueling a dream that will eventually send her soaring skyward and transforming her tale into legend.
