They call him the Knight of the Underdark, the Shield in the Darkness, the Silent Blade. His real name, however, is Iaro Pruzor.  He is the son of one of Orvald's oldest, most respected families. In his youth, he was a popular member of the old king's court, but then something happened. No one knows what, exactly. Some say it was the threat of a scandal that caused the dashing Sir Pruzor to leave the court. Others say that he felt a spiritual calling from the goddess, Elleru. Of course, some said that he just went mad and wandered into the Underdark and never quite managed to find his way back to the surface.

The fact remains that Sir Pruzor spends most of his time in the dark, twisting tunnels and caverns that connect Orvald with the Underdark.  He offers help to those he encounters, whether they be dwarf or drow or anything else. During the Summernight War, Sir Pruzor helped drow refugees fleeing the mindflayers find safe haven. His actions did not win him many friends in Orvald, but he did supply the king with important intelligence on the situation in the Underdark. It is largely because of Sir Pruzor's information that the passages connecting Orvald to the Underdark were closed or better secured. He was one of the first dwarves to encounter the mindflayers and the encounter left him with a deep loathing for the creatures.

Recently, Sir Pruzor has been observed again at Court, attending King Arrador. There is a great deal of speculation as to why the Knight of the Underdark has returned to the Court. Speculation is rampant, but the king keeps his own counsel and Sir Pruzor does not speak to nosy courtiers.

He still spends most of his time, deep below Orvald, patrolling the dark tunnels, doing his best to secure his beloved city from all manner of threats.
