Background: Jowan's was born as his family fled the destruction of the dwarven homeland and carried to their new home in the Empire's borders. For most of his early life, Jowan was nothing unusual, serving as a soldier in the dwarven army. However, when the outpost he was stationed in was attacked by orcs, he shocked and amazed his comrades by demonstrating magical powers in his own defense. In recorded history, no dwarf had ever been capable of using arcane magic, let alone being born with the talent inborn. Once it was established that this was what happened, Jowan came under study by both dwarven loremasters and Imperial mages. Eventually, it was discovered that Jowan's soul and bloodline was different than other dwarves, in fact it appeared that it appeared to be part elf! Eventual magical investigation revealed that other dwarven children possessed similar mixed souls and might potentially have similar powers when they matured.

Jowan realized that if he served with the dwarven army, he would be relegated to the role of a mascot. When the Order offered him a position and the chance to put his powers to good purpose, he accepted.
