Backstory: Hjarem's family got its name not by unfortunate accident, but from the common belief that they were descendants of an evil witch who could turn people into stone. While this is most likely untrue, myth and legend generally win out over truth, and so the lot of them are generally avoided. Hjarem's family generally resided in remote places, generally staying around the wooded areas of Falkreath, where the Spriggans and other such creatures kept violent others away. The Stone-Curse family had a history, this one being true, of having children with numerous oddities, another reason for their poor reputation. More than once had their ranks contained very small and pale children, but Hjarem was ever more an off child. It was noticed quickly that he had two distinct personalites, and as he grew more manifested themselves within Hjarem's mind, and nobody, especially himself, was unsure who he really was. Eventually, one of them prevailed above the rest, and this version of Hjarem saw money as the ultiamate goal in life. As his family was poor and lived off the land, Hjarem ran off while this greedy personality was strongest, and soon after he entered Falkreath, saw the easiest was to get money was to become a hired sword. Nobody cared about morals, ethics, or family history with mercenaries. Thus, the taven in Falkreath became Hjarlem's home away from home, and his eagerness for riches fueled his desire to do well when he was hired. He eventually established somewhat of a name for himself, and began to leave the hold to offer his services to the rest of Skyrim.
