Biography
As with the other Crusaders, Thrud was a warrior fighting in a revolution against the tyranny of theLoptrian Empire, and was one of the survivors barricaded inDahna Fortress when the tide turned against their movement. It was at this fortress that theMiracle of Dahna occurred, changing the tide of the war: Thrud was chosen by an unidentified member of the twelvedragon "gods" who descended upon the fortress, to undergo ablood-bond with said dragon, transforming him into one of the Crusaders. He was grantedMjölnir, sealed to his new holy lineage, by this dragon.
With the other Crusaders, Thrud fought in the rest of theHoly War and contributed to the downfall of the Loptrian Empire. At the war's conclusion, Thrud and five other Crusaders founded the six states of Grannvale, the kingdom founded by their leader SaintHeim, with Thrud founding Friege.
