Beofreth was born a farm near the city of Dale, where he spent the majority of his childhood. At the age of 16, he got fed up the slow, monotonous life of a farmer, and ran off to Esgaroth- better known as Lake-town. Enlisting as a guard after lying about his age, he hoped for a more exciting lot in life; this, of course, was far from the truth, as his job mostly consisted of standing around looking imposing and 'calming' angry peasants.

He spent the next seven years in the guard, becoming very skilled with weapons like halberds and spears. Feeling somewhat under appreciated, and still wanting adventure and fame, he stole out into the night and deserted, taking a sack of food, his armor and weapon, and some water with him. Sailing up the Forest River, he set out on a dangerous trek that took him to Eriador, nearly getting himself killed in the process.

After a short bout in the service of a captain named Belregond (now deceased to his knowledge), he came to the Chestnut Lodge hearing rumors of a group of adventurers and bounty hunters. Being accepted into the ranks of the Crimson Daggers, he earned a small fortune in their ranks prior to their apparent disintegration. Purposeless and wandering, he now instead spends his time drinking and thinking.
