Description
Although he is not in my first created IWD:EE party, he is in my fan fiction based on the game, so that makes him my 7th IWD:EE original character, and the very first who is a half-orc.

Born to a human man and an orc woman, which is a very rare occurrence in interspecies coupling on Faerun (its usually the orc who is the father and the human as the mother), Xalorn Rendar has faced many hardships in his life like his mother before him, but he never would have gotten through it all if it weren't for his best friend Gorris. Wielding a shield and morning star, Xalorn is as dangerous in battle as Gorris, and he is an expert tracker.

Age 28 in 1281 DR (during Icewind Dale 1 and Heart of Winter)
Born 28 Kythorn, 1253 DR
Year of Beckoning Death
Born under the Sign of the Chalice
and with Gibbous Selûne under the sign of the Serpent
Those born under the sign of the Chalice are mercurial, innovative, creative and confident. Easily bored, they crave mental stimulation and challenge. They are eloquent and gifted performers, exuding natural charm.
Those born with Selûne under the sign of the Serpent have good memories and are articulate, strong willed and resourceful, emotional and enigmatic. They have quick responses and are prone to sudden mood changes.

Xalorn was born to a male human named Alvin Rendar who was born in Bremen of Icewind Dale and a adventuring female half-orc Uthgardt barbarian named Valia Red Tiger. After Xalorn was born, his mother Valia knew that the Ten Towns would not be kind to a half-orc child, his father alone isn't enough to protect him, so she had no choice but to give her baby to a friend in Icewind Dale's barbarian tribe. He was given to Gorris' family, and Gorris and Xalorn grew up as inseperable friends all the way to the Year of the Cold Soul.
A couple days before meeting Jovan, Gorris and Xalorn met Andy and Felicia, then they met Jovan, and on they day they departed to Kuldahar, they met Ordmar and Lysara. However, when they got to Kuldahar Pass, a group of frost giants caused an avalanche and killed Hrothgar and most of the expedition, but Gorris, Xalorn, Jovan, Andy, Lysara, Ordmar and Felicia survived and moved on to Kuldahar, where they met the druid Arundel, who tasked them to go to the Vale of Shadows, and find the source of the evil plaguing Kuldahar in one of the tombs there. However, they did not find what they were looking for, as an undead warlord named Kresselack informed them that though he is of evil alignment, he is not responsible for what is happening to Kuldahar.

The party returned to Arundel, then he sent them out to find the Heartstone Gem, the only thing that can identify who is responsible for the disturbances in Kuldahar. However, when they arrived at the temple where the Heartstone Gem was held, Gorris and the others found clues that hint someone else had beaten them to the Heartstone Gem and now has possession of it. They found a vial of strange liquid and return to Kuldahar to report back to Arundel. After examining the vial of strange liquid, Arundel learns that the people who took the Heartstone Gem fled to the Dragon's Eye caverns. the group then headed to the Dragon's Eye caverns and fought off lizard men, bombardier beetles and a few other creatures, and rescued some prisoners who were kidnapped citizens of Kuldahar in the process. They eventually came to a part of a cavern inhabited by a group of men and women who worship Eldath, and they allowed Gorris and the others to rest for a while. Later that evening, Gorris was relaxing in a hot tub with Jovan, Andy, Ordmar and Xalorn and they later fell asleep until the "priests" and "priestesses" of Eldath woke them up and dragged them out of the room to confront Jovan and Lysara who had unintentionally discovered three kidnapped adventurers, Marchon, Iholikan, Cristiana and Reise, who revealed that the priests and priestesses are actually snake people. Then all hell broke loose. Jovan, Lysara, and the four adventurers tried to fight their way to freedom but after killing six of the yuan-ti, they were knocked out and captured.

They woke up together in a strange room surrounded by yuan-ti, and the strange young girl that woke up Jovan in his guest room before he discovered the true nature of the people who claimed to worship Eldath. The young girl reveals that her name is Yxunomei and that she is actually a marilith, a demonic feminine creature with the lower body of a snake from the Nine Hells who is preparing for war against an old "adversary" of hers, and she is not pleased that Jovan and his party have ruined her plans, killing almost half of her minions. A yuan-ti mage shrank Jovan, his companions and the four adventurers they found to the size of roaches and Yxunomei swallowed Iholikan whole. She was about to do the same to Jovan too, until Andy cast Area Dispel, neutralizing the spell that shrank the party, and Jovan caught Yxunomei off guard by stabbing her in the eye with a dagger originally designed for carving scrimshaw. Then while everyone else was fighting the yuan-ti, Jovan fought Yxunomei alone, and he emerged victorious despite having only a scrimshaw carving dagger for the fight, but Marchon, Cristiana and Reise were killed during the fight, so Jovan and his party found the Heartstone Gem and returned to Kuldahar with the people they rescued.

But when they returned to Kuldahar, they found the town being attacked by a small army of orogs. After defeating the small army, the party arrived at Arundel's house to find that an impostor has taken disguise of Arundel and goats over the death of the real Arundel before disappearing. With the real Arundel's last dying breaths, he instructs Jovan and his party to go to the Severed Hand to find Larrel, the last person who is able to use the Heartstone Gem.

Before leaving for the Severed Hand, Gorris and the others discovered that they are no longer welcome in Kuldahar anymore after the orog attack, even the tavern owner threatened to shoot them with crossbow quarrels if they did not leave his tavern, much to Gorris and Xalorn's anger. The only person in Kuldahar who showed them hospitality was a man named Conlan, who was grateful to Jovan and his party for rescuing his son. Then the next day they set off to the Severed Hand, where they learn that a large goblinoid army armed with weapons and armor of dwarven make attacked the fortress shaped like a hand long ago, and that Larrel, a somewhat undead elf, has gone insane under the belief that the dwarves of Dorn's Deep were responsible for the attack long ago. After releasing the mythal over the Severed Hand, Larrel was freed from his insanity and used the Heartstone Gem and learned that the evil haunting Kuldahar is located in Dorn's Deep. Before leaving, Jovan and his party rested at the Severed Hand.

The next day they arrived in Dorn's Deep, and Andy discovered evidence that proved the dwarves of Dorn's Deep are innocent after all, and Jovan opted to return to the Severed Hand to tell Larrel the truth. Then later they returned to Dorn's Deep and learned that a man named Poquelin is in command of all the evil creatures there, and to get to Poquelin they need badges from all of his lieutenants. They killed all of Poquelin's lieutenants except one-- an elf woman named Ilmadia, because she was pregnant with twins. Instead, Jovan knocked her out. Little did they know that Ilmadia was less than four months away from giving birth to Isair and Madae, the cambion twins that will eventually bring trouble to Icewind Dale 30 years later from that time, creating an evil organization of creatures with mixed heritages known as the Legion of the Chimera. When they reached Poquelin's quarters, he revealed everything to them, how he and Yxunomei were cast out of the Nine Hells, and how he used Crenshinibon itself to make the army he has created. Instead of fighting them, he magically sent them back to Easthaven where he created the Crystal Tower using the crystal shard.

With the help of a sullen priest of Tempus named Everard, and obtaining the magically repaired Aihonen's sword from his descendant Jhonen, Jovan and his party entered the crystal tower where they learned the shopkeeper Pomab had turned evil. They killed him and made it to the top where a portal magically teleported them to the temple of Tempus's basement, where the Jerrod's Portal is located. Poquelin opened the portal so that his devilish brethren can come through it and wreak havoc all over Faerun, but Everard sacrificed himself to reseal the portal. Angered by Everard's sacrifice, Poquelin revealed his true form and name: a baatezu devil named Belhifet. Jovan and his party fought Belhifet with everything they had, and Jovan delivered the killing blow to Belhifet, sending his soul back to Avernus where he will be in a weakened state for the next 100 years, unable to return to the Prime Material Plane until 1381 DR.

In the following two months after Belhifet's defeat, Jovan, Felicia, Andy, Gorris, Xalorn, Ordmar and Lysara dedicated their efforts into rebuilding Easthaven, and sometime during the second month of reconstruction of Easthaven, Jovan and his party arrived in Lonelywood where they met an elderly Barbarian man named Hjollder, who was a shaman of the Tribe of the Bear, and he claimed that Jovan and his party are the heroes that he has seen in a vision that will prevent an unnecessary war between the Ten Towns and Icewind Dale's barbarian tribes. Gorris felt overjoyed at the opportunity to see his tribe again, but he felt very uneasy about the possibility of a war between his tribes and the Ten Towns, though he has known of the bad blood between the barbarians and the Ten Towns ever since he was a child. Jovan and his party agreed to do whatever they can to stop the seemingly inevitable war and meet with the king of the barbarian tribes. when they arrived at the barbarian tribe campsite, Gorris was very confused to see that the Tribe of the Bear no longer exists anymore, instead it has been replaced by the "Tribe of the Wyrm", or more specifically, the "Tribe of the Dragon".

They met Wylfdene, the king of the barbarian tribes that recently returned from the dead, and Jovan and his party tried to reason with the barbarian king, especially Gorris since he was once of the Tribe of the Bear, but Wylfdene did not want to find common ground with the settlers of the Ten Towns, claiming the lands they are on once belonged to the barbarians of Icewind Dale, and he felt that the only way to reclaim it all is all out war, no peace treaties, no reparations. To make matters worse, Wylfdene wanted Jovan and his party executed, Gorris included, much to Gorris' shock, but Hjollder came to their defense, claiming that their presence had been foretold by Tempus in a vision. When Wylfdene asked what did Tempus' vision say about them, Hjollder was very hesitant to explain that Jovan, Gorris and their allies are destined to somehow stop Wylfdene from warring against the Ten Towns, he instead told his king that Tempus' vision was unclear. Wylfdene grew annoyed at Hjollder's inability to interpret the vision and ordered Hjollder to be exiled at to the Burial Island, which is in the middle of the lake near Lonelywood, and Jovan and his party were allowed to leave since Wylfdene had no intention of defying Tempus' vision.

When Jovan and his party returned to Lonelywood, they rested at the inn for a day, then the next day they resolved to find Hjollder at Burial Isle. They hired a a man known as "Young Ned" to ferry them over to the island. When they arrived on the island and descended down to the burial tombs, they learned from one of the tormented spirits that they are angry that Wylfdene's body has been taken by a poisoned soul. After learning this, Jovan and his party returned to the surface of the island and searched for Hjollder until they found him. Hjollder has found himself doubting Tempus' vision, even after being told that Wylfdene's body is being controlled by someone who was not Wylfdene in life, he told Jovan and his party that he needs solid proof of this. When Hjollder was given Wylfdene's broken tribal insignia, which should have never been broken, he tells Jovan and his party about the Gloomfrost Seer, who lives in isolation somewhere in the Reghed Glaciers of Icewind Dale.
Jovan and his party returned to Lonelywood to gather supplies before heading out to the glacier. After nearly two weeks of walking through Icewind Dale's glaciers, they found a cave which turned out to be infested with remorhaz. But thanks to Andy's Haste spell, Jovan and his party were able to elude the remorhaz and venture deeper into the caves, where they met a dwarf named Tiernon and the Seer herself. The Seer reveals that she has known for decades that Jovan and his party would come searching for her, and that her death would follow afterward, so she had hidden herself deep in the caverns hoping that she could avoid her death. She also revealed that the spirit in control of Wylfdene's body was not human in life, and she is poisoned by the desire for revenge, and the only way to reveal herself is to have her look into a mirror. Jovan takes the mirror, and he and his party return to the barbarian tribes and meet with Wylfdene again. They convince "him" to look into the mirror, and he freaks out, as if he had never seen himself before. The Seer arrives and reveals that the soul in Wylfdene's body is none other than the white dragon Icasaracht, who was once known in Icewind Dale as the matron mother of white dragons. Icasaracht, while still in Wylfdene's body, got angry and argued with the Seer, claiming that she once ruled Icewind Dale freely, and that a man named Aihonen, who led the invading army that drove off the barbarians of Icewind Dale and slain several white dragons a century ago took away everything she valued. She killed the Seer and left wylfdene's body to retreat somewhere else. Hjollder tells Jovan and his companions that he had recently learned "Wylfdene" had ordered a large group of virgins to be taken by ship to a certain island on the Sea of Moving Ice. The island was known to a long dead barbarian tribe that used to worship white dragons. Believing that is where Icasaracht's soul had retreated to, Hjollder commissioned the warriors of the Tribe of the Gray Whale to send Jovan and his party by ship to the island where white dragons were once worshiped.

Along the way, Gorris quietly contemplated on what he must do to revived the Tribe of the Bear once Icasaracht is finally defeated. He concluded that the only thing he can do is become the tribe's new king and reinstate the Tribe of the Bear. When they reached the island and ventured deeper into it, they found Icasaracht now in control of the body of a young adult white dragon. Before fighting, Icasaracht explained her motives, revealing that retreating to this island was a calculated risk, but a necessary one, because long ago, she made a contingency plan to cheat death, to be "immortal". She reared eight offspring after creating two special wards, one to help guide her spirit if she dies, and another word to preserve a soulless body for a long time. While her soon to be born children were not alive yet, she warded them to make sure they never gain a life of their own, and placed their bodies in the preservation wards which protects them and nourishes them, giving Icasaracht eight lives to live. Even though Jovan had the sword that slain Icasaracht's original body, Icasaracht herself wasn't worried because the sword was not as strong as it used to be, preventing her soul from leaving. Jovan and his party fought Icasaracht and after destroying her current body, they also destroyed the soul gem that preserved her soul in preparation to send her to another white dragon body. Afterwards, Jovan and his party returned to Icewind Dale, and his party went their separate ways.

Gorris established himself as king of the Tribe of the Bear of Icewind Dale, and ruled Icewind Dale's barbarians with Xalorn as his right hand man for almost three decades, making sure the unsteady peace between the barbarians and the Ten Towns remains unbroken until a barbarian of the Tribe of the Elk named Hrothulf challenged Gorris for the throne. Gorris accepted the challenge, knowing that if Hrothulf becomes king, he will permit hostilities against the people of the Ten Towns, and he could not let that happen. Unfortunately, Hrothulf bested Gorris in battle, killed him and Xalorn and took over as king of the barbarians, and later Hrothulf had a son named Heafstaag, who eventually became the hereditary king of the Tribe of the Elk.
