Dirtar was born a farmer's boy in Dale. His father, Darta, encouraged him to stay away from conflict and fighting. Darta died along with his wife in a blaze which tore through his family home leaving Dirtar to fend for himself.

Hearing of Darta's death, his old friend The Greyhood travelled to Dale. There he found a young Dirtar alone and afraid. He took him under his wing. The Greyhood helped Dirtar through his adolescence and they stayed in Bree for some time. Dirtar, feeling frustrated by his new surroundings strived to find a life of his own, so he left Bree to move back to Dale. He never made it.

He spent some years wandering the wilds and surviving as a hunter, selling game to villages he would pass through.

Eventually he returned to Bree, to find The Greyhood dead. After this, much of his time was spent drunk in The Prancing Pony. The place were he met Connwear. Together they signed up for The Eagle Guard, mainly as a means of making coin.

In the years that followed Dirtar found himself working through the ranks of The Eagle Guard until he became Lieutenant of the Auxiliary unit.

Serving amongst The Eagles, Dirtar fought in the war against Nalokha and her Heirs of Ruin. Making an enemy of the Red Lady and those that served her.

The Eagle Guard eventually fell, and Dirtar formed The Crimson Blades to stamp out the remnants of Nalokha's minions, led by Ralvis and Maraveth.

The conflict finally ended with the dissapearance of the Heirs of Ruin. As the Heirs vanished, so too did Dirtar's purpose. He found himself once again lost and longing for something more. He once again left Bree.

Back on the road and surviving in the wild, word eventually reached Dirtar that The Greyhood lives, and had been sighted in Bree. He returned to find his old friend.
