Background story
Ziruna Ankarr of the noble Ankarr family was born in the year 1458 DR,
a few decades after the arrival of his race on Faerun. He enjoyed a
luxurious youth, by virtue of the fact that his uncle was all but guaranteed
to be governor of Tymanther after the current governor stepped down.
As all young dragonborn he was taught to fight using the sword as soon
as possible. But, even though he did not know it was already telling,
somehow Ziruna favored the impopular and clunky bastard sword instead of
the traditional dragonborn light swords.
As he grew older, Ziruna became interested in the lands beyond Tymanther.
He applied to become a member of the guards, and indeed was soon seen as
a very welcome addition. Always interested in the comings and goings of the
other races, he did have a way with people from every culture.
However, he always remained a bit elusive to his people. Especially
his uncle, now sure he would be in power soon, was not amused by his
'eccentric' behaviour, thinking it might reflect on him. And one day,
Ziruna made a fatal mistake -- while talking to a human trader passing by in
Tymanther he learned of a plot to assassinate the current governor. In his
anger upon hearing this Ziruna fatally wounded the trader, thereby making
it impossible to discover the identity of the would-be assassin.
A few days passed in which the governor was well protected while every
guard was looking for any suspicious activity. None such was found, and
Ziruna was fast becoming the talk of the city. Finally his uncle stepped
in and proclaimed that Ziruna was a murderer; and that he had made up the
story about a supposed asassin in order to preserve his innocence.
Because of his previous deeds, and his connection to power, even his
uncle did not dare execute him for this crime; but he did proclaim
Ziruna to be an outcast of the city of Tymanther, and sentenced him to
exile in far away lands.
The night of the exile, Ziruna said goodbye to his father and mother and
swore to himself that he would be back as soon as possible; he would
avenge himself and clean his reputation. After that, he stepped through
the portal that took him to his supposed doom.

laced with blue colors, of the house of Ankarr.
