Noradnar

Noradnar was a saint of the Church of Ilmater.

History
In his early life Noradnar worked as a slave-driver, but later on he took to heart the teachings of the Church of Ilmater. Taking up the life of a priest, Noradnar sought to teach others some means of defending themselves that didn't violate the Church's tenant of passive resistance.

Eventually Noradnar founded a hermitage out in the arid Calim Desert. There he taught a defensive style of martial arts, focused around disarming and disabling one's opponents, which would continue to be taught long after he passed away.
