Weland lived a simple and normal life throughout his childhood, raised near the Norvagen capital of Stormhold, his father was a smith making mostly tools and everyday objects from the bits of metals he could salvage or get. His father, Skjall met a woman, a fiery young lass with a head of orange hair. She was a huntress from the western northern lands, outside of the isle of Avanor. Skjall enjoyed her company, and soon enough became more than a friend to her, he took her south to The Motto where they married privately in the great woods before the settlement. Alice was a follower of Theorda, and marrying in the woods seemed like the ideal place. Yet, Skjall and Alice put aside their religious differences and soon Alice came to be with child.
Unfortunately, Alice’s child born did not go as planned it was messy and hard on her, though she survived a few more days severely ill, she couldn’t summon the strength to survive, and soon passed holding her son close. His father Skjall took this shook as you would expect, after staying long enough and with the help of ours, weaved Weland off milk and started to travel with him to find work, going from encampment of sellswords, to large scale war camps in the southern regions, whatever paid well enough for money to go to the next one. As Weland grew into his teens, he picked up the hammer as well, and started to aid in his father’s work around the camps. Skjall disappeared on the eve of Weland’s 16th birthday, leaving him to work for himself and find pay. He made an impression with a lording cousin and was taken into his home as the house smith.
Though the lessons bored Weland, he enjoyed living under the roof with Lord Castain. He learned skills with the hammer and was even provided metals he’d never seen and made of quality a war camp simply couldn’t afford. But, he found something else in that settlement, Lord Castain’s daughter. The two grew close to one another, became friends and often spend most of their days together skipping classes or events. This caused the servants to start rumors about their relations, and the fury of Lord Castain’s was released. He roared out, commanded Weland be whipped and than send off, ordering Weland return to his people in the north...

+Blacksmithing: Been taught by his father, and then later by a lording cousin’s housesmith, he moved from warcamp to warcamp with the two learning all he could, most commonly with repairs and crafting horseshoes.
+Reading/Writting:[/i] Once entering the Lord’s home as a student under his blacksmith, Weland was taught how to write and read letters and numbers fairly well, He was noted as being very skilled with writing, yet his master didn’t allow him to further his knowledge of such.
+Leathercrafting: Goes with the blacksmithing, knowing only the basics for wrapping sword hilts and patching saddles and aiding in the craft of staddles and reins.
+Arts (Drawing + Painting): Weland was taken into the home of a Lord, and once there he met a the daughter of the Lord, who introduced him to the arts, painting and drawing but due to them becoming friends and attempts at romance, the lord forbid them see each other and furthermore had him flogged. After such events, his master forbid him from doing any form of art, so this skill is kept to himself and then departed from the manor on Lord Castien's orders.
+Woodworking: Same as leatherworking, only the basics for making sword hilts.
