Orin Golhath, an elf, has always grew up wondering about magic and the outside world. Outside form his village in the woods that is. As he grew up he was tought how to fight and use a little magic. When he was old enough he went and left his village to see the rest of the world. As he went he learned more way of fighting and a little magic.
Several years past and he kept on learning. He wnet town to town looking for new magic. He would hire himself out to travlers, for a fair price, to show then around. He even taged along several times for gaurd duty. By this time he was becoming known. Many towns would know in advance he was coming. This way they could set a proper welcome. Orin did not like the idea that much but got use to it quick. He told the people after awhile that there was no need for a welcome, so they stoped.
As Orin was approaching on town where the famed Starbroz was to live, he was yanked into the woods by no other than Starbroz himself. Starbroz told him that the town had been burned down and that the people who did it were looking for him now. So Orin and Starbroz hid in the woods for two days til the close was clear. They then went back to town. It was a total waste. Starbroz led Orin to a skeleton of a building. When Orin woke up he was lying in a bed underground.
Orin didn't know what to do. He went for one of his weapons. None were there. They were all missing. He leaned up and looked around. He was in a small alcove. There was a shreaded tarp at the entrance letting some light in. He then looked around the room he was in. There was a small table next to thie bed with a candle on it. From the light in the room he was then able to see all his equipment hanging on the far wall. Starbroz then walked in letting a flood of light in. Orin immediatly jupmped out of the bed and stood ready to fight. Starbroz laughed and told Orin where he was.
Orin and Starbroz were in a secret underground cavern. Starbroz's own hideout. Starbroz then explained to orin that he had to knock him out so he would not see where the entrance was. (Later orin would become the only one to see and know of the place.) Starbroz and Orin stayed in the cavern for several months. Starbroz tought Orin all he knew. Starbroz even gave Orin all of his magical items. (How Starbroz got all his magical items is a story in itself.) When Starbroz knew it was safe to go out of the cavern he led Orin out and showed him all the entrances to the cavern. He wished him luck and went their seperate ways.
