Ivanr, also formally called Ivanr of Antr, was the ex-Grand Champion of the Jourilan Imperial Games who had refused the Call to the Stormwall and been imprisoned, tortured, and eventually banished for it. "Ivanr had refused the Call and thrown down his swords in the dust of the training grounds at Abor. They’d imprisoned him, beaten him almost to his death, cursed him as half-breed Thel scum – not that his background had mattered while his sword served. But they would not kill him; not great Ivanr whom they had lauded as the greatest Jourilan champion in living memory." ―Ivanr's history

But they would not kill him; not great Ivanr whom they had lauded as the greatest Jourilan champion in living memory." ―Ivanr's history After "retiring" from the Games, he had hacked out a small vegetable farm in the unsettled far south of Jourilan, hard up against the foothills of the Iceback Range. He was a mixed blood Thelomen Toblakai whose mother had been from the Red-Rock tribe of the Thoul-Alai, and he was looked upon with disdain by both his peoples. Mocked as a coward, he had in fact sworn a vow never to kill again after coming to understand the uselessness of his love for conflict. Hegil Lesour 'an 'al described him as the "closest to a full-breed Thel that I've ever seen", a man who had once been better fed, but lost weight recently, and who carried himself like a soldier. Although sworn not kill, he was still a ferocious fighter capable of defeating even veteran foes who outnumbered him. Unbeknownst to him a pacifist cult of Ivanr had formed from his example leading hundreds to refuse service on the Wall.
