RY 722: Bjorn was born. His mother was Hilda, one of the tavern wenches. His father was Crem, one of the lead hunters. Crem didn't show much interest in the boy.

RY 728: When Bjorn was six years old, Crem decided to raise the boy so he took him from Hilda's arms. She was still allowed to care for him when they visited the tavern, but Bjorn was with Crem now.

RY 732: Crem had another child with Hilda. Bjorn got to pick the name. He named his brother Alekeg. After having been beaten by his own father, Waldemar, Crem agreed to marry Hilda.

RY 734: When Bjorn was 12 years old, he spent much time alone in the wilderness to hunt. His mother Hilda died in childbirth at age 39 as she gave birth to Bjorn's sister. They named her Hilda too.

RY 735: After an argument with Hilda's father, Crem challenged him to a fight in the Crucible. The night before, Crem had a lot to drink, and he was too hung over to fight well. He died at age 51. At 13 years old, Bjorn was a man grown, so he took Crem's house and belongings as his own and gave Alekeg and Hilda to Waldemar.

RY 740: When Bjorn was 18 years old, he agreed to marry Berthulma after losing to her brother in dice. Despite her nose warts, he found her very beautiful.

RY 742: Berthulma died giving birth to Bjorn's first child. The child died as well. Angry, Bjorn took Alekeg with him out in the wilderness where they built a cottage together.

RY 746: Bjorn's sister Hilda started working as a wench in the same tavern as her mother.

RY 747: Hilda married Oleg, the tavern keep's son.

RY 750: Bjorn's brother Alekeg married Elmina. He was 18 years old now. Bjorn was 28 and chose not to remarry. He spent all the more time in the wilderness.

RY 760: At age 38, Bjorn was known as one of the leading trappers in Vargmoss. He began to routinely travel to Yilali to trade. He bought a house in Rosalia where he spent each winter. He also befriended Falk the Whistler from Rosalia.

RY 763: Alekeg and Elmina became parents to Cremina.

RY 765: Hilda died from sickness. That same year, Oleg took over the tavern and remarried another wench.

RY 768: Bjorn was hired by Tom Olafsson from Rosalia to guard him on his way to the Mountain Keep. He had a brief affair with Carman the Canine.

RY 769: Elmina died from violence and left Alekeg in mourning. Alekeg started to raid to occupy his mind. Bjorn sold his house in Rosalia and moved back to Vargmoss fulltime.

RY 770: Alekeg died in a raid and Bjorn adopted his niece Cremina.

RY 771: Bjorn was called to arms by Chieftain Grog Everholdt and participated in the raid against the Crossroads of the Dead. He lost his arm in the fighting, but was later healed by Jinrai.
