Background

Heidrun Elmertyr founded the Temple of Knowledge as as place to teach and learn, purely for the love of learning. For him the act of study was a religious act, as if by learning more about the world he was bringing himself closer to the gods who created it, and he knew there were others out there who would feel similarly. Over time he was joined by a small but intensely intelligent group from across the continent, all eager to expand their own knowledge.

The Temple was expanded below ground to hold the great works of art and scripture created by the group as part of their studies. Unfortunately for them however, a group of outlaws heard about the temple and assumed that there would be much of great value inside. They attacked during the day when the worshippers were in the upper halls, slaughtering them all in their fervour for riches, only to realise the lower levels were magically sealed.

After the outlaws left Heidrun emerged from below, the only survivor of the attack. His horror at the sight of his fallen brothers and sisters broke something in his mind and to this day he still resides alone in the temple, hoarding texts and scrolls and reading obsessively. He believes that if he can only gain enough knowledge, the gods will give him the power to return his followers to him.
