History A child of the mountain dwarves, Svala has spent her entire life on the surface living in the brutal environment of the Lands of the Linnorm Kings. What she lacks in Darklands knowledge, she makes up for in cold-weather expertise. Her heartiness is matched only by her stubbornness, and she is determined to do things her way. She is an ardent worshipper of Cayden Cailean, god of drink. She can consume prodigious amounts of liquor and prefers intoxication to sobriety. However, she is able to function drunk at a level others cannot achieve in any state. She lives for today and could be considered a hedonist seeking to experience all life has to offer. When the time comes to fight, though, she is loyal and steadfast and brave to a fault.
