Tol was born to a woodsman and his wife that lived in the forest near Minas, a hamlet that was burned to the ground many years ago that was situated well east of Brightstone Keep. Minas came under attack by a roving war band of orcs, and although they fought bravely, the village folk were slaughtered. The orcs then made their retreat into the forest where they encountered the homestead of young Tol and his family. The monsters tortured the family for sport, eventually killing the parents and hanging them all from the nearest tree. Tol was the only one alive when they did so, and they left him hanging as they left. The young man was able to free himself by swinging his body towards the tree trunk and grabbing hold, but not before the rope burned a wound around his neck. Surviving on the woodland skills his father taught him, he roamed the area killing off orcs and other goblinkin whenever he could. | Tol was born to a woodsman and his wife that lived in the forest near Minas, a hamlet that was burned to the ground many years ago that was situated well east of Brightstone Keep.
