Personal history
Sverrir was raised in the Tethuram kingdom of Kol Duluramodul with his younger brother, Bromal. The two brothers were inseparable, and gained fame as warriors of Iful's Capital. Bromal was brutal in nature and had a short fuse, however Sverrir was always able to calm him down. Bromal deeply respected his brother's compassion and modesty.
The nickname "Skull Digger" was rewarded to Sverrir after a fierce battle where witnesses say he pierced through the heads of any foe he faced. Brutality was favored of Iful's warriors, so his quick attacks that left little room for agony made him far from the popularity of his brother. He honoured the kingdom enough to become a warrior, but his honour was conflicted with his hatred for causing pain, therefore his combat style favoured efficiency over all else.
In 9144 Origin Age, his life would be taken at the age of 100 (67 Earth years), along with his brother's. The false God of Decay had began spreading a disease that turned humans undead, and a child was afflicted by it. The brothers planned to kill him out of mercy, but Sverrir hesitated. The corpses able to be retrieved after the undead plague were buried in the deepest depths of the Catacombs of Gathuram.
After Death
"What would a meaningless protector offer in the ways of discussion..? Perhaps I may tell you about my past life... No, it's nothing but a blur now. Octavia resurrected me and kept my withering body moving for so long I have lost my old self. I'm barely an undead anymore, more so a spirit. But don't pity me, I enjoyed my time with her, it made me feel I had a purpose..."In 1445 Golden Age, 7th of Werch, the Fallen of Octavia von Gailon, known as the Keeper, used Forbidden Necromancy to construct a skeleton called Skull Digger. Frail at first, it had neither emotions nor senses. He was weakening, and Octavia strived to heal it using the necromancy she knew. His hollow eye sockets lit up with a tiny dot of white light, and a faded light emerged in his ribcage. Skull Digger looked at her. Octavia asked what his name was, he replied with a quiet voice: "Skull Digger". As Octavia used more Forbidden Necromancy, Skull Digger had become stronger, he was no longer a skeleton, he had flesh, and a mask of bone had formed on his face. In 1491 Golden Age, 20th of Pathix, his mistress escaped the Catacombs and he followed.
