Haldor’s life has been marked by both tragedy and triumph. As a child, he was one of the Valkurian children kidnapped and tortured by the Skeldians. This brutal experience was part of the Skeldians’ efforts to turn the Valkurian children against their own kind and to uncover the secrets of their ability to call lightning, mistakenly believing it was due to their thundersteel weapons. Despite the torment he endured, Haldor emerged stronger and more determined.
He became a Stormraiser, a warrior capable of harnessing the power of storms, and fought valiantly against the Skeldians in their wars of conquest with the dragons Stoneouts. His prowess in battle and his ability to call lightning made him a formidable opponent. However, Haldor’s story does not end with vengeance. When the Dweller threat emerged, he chose to fight alongside the very people who had once been his enemies. This decision showcased his capacity for forgiveness and his commitment to the greater good.
Haldor’s leadership and bravery have earned him a revered place among the Stormraisers. He is not only a warrior but also a symbol of resilience and unity. His experiences have shaped him into a compassionate leader who values strength, honor, and the bonds forged through shared struggle.
