In Ultima Online, my character is named Sajam Duri. He is an Elven-smith, here is his tale.
During the realm of Beleriand, when his parents fled from Middle-Earth, he was left behind with his grandfather, where the name of Sajam first came. His grandfather was a horrible Elf. He had two wives, one Elven and the other Human. His father was Elrohir, brother of Elrond, one of the most respectable Elves of all time.
Well, Sajam (the grandfather) married the human first, Liah Washbird, and had one child, a Half-Elf, Rean Duri. Rean married an man by the name of Kyle Nukas. They also had one child, also a Half-Elf, Derk Nukas. After all this, Liah was killed by an Orc on her way back to home from a meeting. Sajam then married an Elf, Suruni Ternai. They had an Elf child, Curuni. Curuni married Eonwe Elende and gave birth to an Elf. They named him Sajam Duri, after his grandfather.
When he grew up, his life became nothing but conflicts. He obtained one of the Silmarils, but that's another story to be told later. Ever since, he trained in blacksmithy and mining. He bacame one of the greatest Elven-smiths of all time. But then his grandfather died. Morgoth himself came to his door thinking he held one of the Silmarils, but when Morgoth saw nothing, he slit his throat and left him on the front steps for the wild dogs and vultures. When his grandson, Sajam, saw this, he fled east past the Blue Mountains. He stayed there not knowing of the coming of the Third Age. When he came back, something surprised him. No life was to be seen. He found a book in his house and read it. Only a paragraph remained on one page. It read,
"When the Elves left Middle-earth, turmoil grew again, conflicts between Men awakened. And eventually, the race of Men was destroyed. All of them, gone. Nowhere to be found, not even bodies. But something strange appeared. Blue fields appeared at many places, the more they came, the more Men disappeared. We do not know why or where they went...."
Sajam was walking along a path, and he saw what the book described. It was a blue field, maybe 7 feet tall standing along the pathway. He put his arm through it, noticing it went inside, but it didn't come out the back. He stepped all the way through it. It was a whole new world, but it was dead. Dead trees everywhere and he noticed what looked like robbers and thieves hiding in the dead trees. As soon as he stepped through he was overcome by a hoard of thieves. They knocked him out and stole everything on him except his shirt and pants.
