Sylna Akabrightharbor

Sylna's hammer sang with purpose in the depths of the Deepforge caverns, where generations of his kin had perfected the art of metalwork. His blades were legendary—sought after by adventurers and warlords alike—and his reputation as a master craftsman grew with each masterpiece he forged.

Sylna's rage, once channeled into the creation of beautiful weapons, now found expression in enforcing the Table's will through intimidation and calculated violence. He had become something far more dangerous than a
