Description: This malnourished man wears a brown shirt with thin grey vertical stripes and violet pants. He keeps his long red hair kept up in a rat tail. His skin is flawless and his green eyes scan people very quickly.

Personality: He likes to brag about his accomplishments and constantly tries to beat others to the punch. He does suffer from mild PTSD, and the sight of dire rats may trigger it at times.

History: He was raised in a desert tribe. When he was little, his rather wealthy family often ventured across the desert to a summer home near a old dungeon. He would wander through that old dungeon and adventure through it for days. One day while adventuring a terrible storm took place and he was stranded inside. His family spent the next few days looking for him, and could only assume he was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the desert due to the painful memories there. Nalral took refuge in the old dungeon and found the beat up pickaxe and armor he uses now. He has taken up leadership of the village's small militia in response to dire rats demanding more tribute than usual.
