Nal is the child of a Human man, Brock Huntsman and an Elvish woman, Lle'allienne an'Elbereth. Brock was from the Suss Forest near Celene. Lle'allienne is from the outskirts of a town on the edge of the Suss Forest and Celene called Sonnentide. They met and secretly saw each other one summer when Brock was young and they eventually married to the disapproval of both families. They settled in Sonnentide with other Half-Elvish families. An army of undead led by a Lich killed Nal's family and the entire town that was Sonnentide. Always shunned by his mother's family for being the bastard half-Human and never trusted by Brock's family for being half-Elven (Brock's family were trappers and woodsmen who distrusted Elves) Nal was on his own after that awful day. Nal survived the undead horde because he was in the root cellar of his home when the attack began and his home fell on top of him. He climbed forth from the rubble, half dead with only his vengeance to feed and clothe him.

Now he fights for the glory of Ehlonna and Yondalla and has bent his life to the destruction of all Undead. After having come to a crossroads in his life, Nal fell from the faith and chose to become a Bard after falling from grace and becoming disaligned with Law. Past party decisions and a romantic relationship with a halfling woman has changed Nal forever.

Nal now dedicates his life to Janice instead of solely for Ehlonna. Janice and Nal were married and Nal began worshipping Yondalla as well as Ehlonna with his new wife. Some would say Nalbienne is a Paladin fallen from grace, Nal thinks his mission in life has just changed. With the birth of his daughter, Lyly, Nals' life has once again been changed by his beatiful and frenetic wife Janice.

Recently Nal has been in contact with several dragons and carried around a vial of dragon blood and the scales of 2 dragons. This has changed Nal, lighting a fire within him; he now realizes his true draconic routes and has begun the journey to becoming one.

In the end of his adventuring days (are they ended?) Nal found his family was not killed yet captured by the Dark God and his party freed them and they live together now. Still often times the strange Dwarf or Human knight will visit the An'Elbereth household in the middle of the night. Lyly, the strong young and strangely enchanted Shadow Dancer child of the Half-Elf and Halfling couple shows much promise....
