As the second-born of a family of prospectors, owning a mine in which Val’s great-great-great-grandfather and -grandmother met and worked. Living a long life, making an honest pay from the work in the rich mine, when they finally retired, his great-great-great-grandfather was a supervisor in the mine, overseeing the training of new workers. A position that their children took upon them in time.
When Val’s father, Wrakull Amblarex, was young, he was already in charge of organizing the ore-hauls going to merchants, and the purchasing of supplies for the miners. From that position, it didn’t take long for Wrakull to eventually own the mine, essentially being the most important figure in the settlement, that over the years had risen around the mine.
Wrakull was known as a strict, conservative man, though he managed to create the image among the workers, that he himself had worked his way up from the same position as they were in. But this was in part because Wrakull, through an agent at the local tavern, had heard some of the workers speaking of revolting and taking over the mine. Wrakull also set out to increase the safety of the mine-shaft, reinforcing the supports, replacing the damaged ones and having back-up digging teams on standby, in case of a cave-in.
Wrakull had hoped to birth a son first, so when his firstborn instead turned out to be a girl, he immediately set out, with his wife Hasiras, to birth another child. This child would become Val’kiroth.
Val’s upbringing was easy, along with his one-year-older sister, his father’s wealth were able to help overcome most difficulties, that children in a rough and tumble mining town normally would face. Including hiring a well-renowned Elf to teach Val and his sister Earrys a more refined etiquette, as well as the Elvish language.
Were Earrys took an interest in food, both eating and cooking, Val’s interests were more in accounting and wealth, to his father’s joy.
When Val was old enough, and with Earrys about to be married to another wealthy Dragonborn family, his father asked Val to go out and expand his and his sister’s new family’s trading network.
