Biography
As with the other Crusaders, Fjalar was a warrior fighting in a revolution against the tyranny of the Loptrian Empire, and was one of the survivors barricaded in Dahna Fortress when the tide turned against their movement. It was at this fortress that the Miracle of Dahna occurred, changing the tide of the war: Fjalar was chosen by one of the twelve dragon gods who descended upon the fortress, and with the dragon underwent a blood pact, which transformed her into one of the Crusaders. The dragon then bestowed upon Fjalar their power, in the form of the Valflame tome, sealed to Fjalar's new holy bloodline, to wield in the war.
With the other Crusaders, Fjalar fought in the rest of the Holy War and contributed to the downfall of the Loptrian Empire. At the war's conclusion, Fjalar and five other Crusaders founded the six duchies of Grannvale, the kingdom founded by their leader Saint Heim, with Fjalar founding Velthomer.
