Ekuar is a rock shaper who had been enslaved by the Frozen Mountain Trolls for centuries. Captured as a child, his spirit and body both chipped away by his harsh treatment at their hands. Ekuar lost one arm, one finger, and one leg below the knee as a result of his cruel treatment at the hands of the trolls. Ekuar is able to walk with the aid of a wooden leg and a wooden staff and amazingly, despite this brutal treatment, he maintains a peaceful and cheerful personality.
When Rayek found Ekuar in the bowels of Greymung's caverns, he was a huddled in a dank hole, muttering to himself. Rayek restored Ekuar's strength; in return Ekuar helped Rayek extend his magical powers. A bond formed between teacher and student which was more like father to son. Although not truly a Go-Back, he did spend several years living among them. At the end of the Djun's War, with Rayek the walking prison for Winnowill's restless spirit, Ekuar accompanied him on his journey. They wandered the World of Two Moons for years, Ekuar's friendship the one bright spark in Rayek's harrowing trek into the future.
