Irontail was born into the warrior cast of the Dumner tribe in 998 MT. His parents were old when he was born and his mother ended up dying after giving birth. Like everyone in his position, he started training in the warrior tradition when he was three years old. His father trained him until ten, and then he started his official testing to become a tribal warrior.
As a young trainee, he had some difficulty fitting in with his classmates but typically performed above average across the board. As the years progress, he didn’t grow as large as most of his fellow warriors, which made it even more difficult to fit in. Furthermore, he often questioned his instructors, which was not an accepted practice. When he reached age 27, the normal age for centaur warriors to pass their final testing phase, he had fallen behind.
Finally, at age 29, Irontail became a full-fledged warrior of the Dumner tribe. He participated in a variety of skirmishes, but no major engagements. Without any commendations, he typically remains in the background and gets stuck in more menial roles, such as guard duty.

Weight: 1356 lbs.
Hair: Brown fur.
Eyes: Brown
Body Type: Washboard stomach, barrel chested, very muscular.
Features: Monkey-like
Clothes: None
Accessories: Wooden club.
Personality: Like most of his species, Irontail is very stubborn by nature. Despite this, he is extremely curious by nature, and often questions the reasoning of his elders. In centaur tribes, this is a quality frowned upon, which has led Irontail to be somewhat of an outsider among his tribe. With this curiosity and his above-average intellect, he finds it difficult to get along with his peers and recently has started to question everything about the centaur tribal structure.
