History: He was born in a small mountains village. When he was little, his rather wealthy family often ventured across the mountains to a summer home near a ruined castle.

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 mountains due to the painful memories there. Mindartis took refuge in the ruined castle and found the beat up club and armor he uses now. One night he noticed a nearby shooting star which he hiked out to see where it landed.
