Welcome to Choteau, Montana, in 2018. What was once only a small city focused on fossils, has now started to turn into an equestrian mecca. Everyone still knows everyone, so the question remains, what will you become?

Ivarr's appearance typically depends on what he's doing that day. Though as a general rule its going to be jeans and some t-shirt, short of if he's actually going somewhere nice on a date with Kristian, or has otherwise been told to dress up smart.
There are calluses on his fingers where he's used to doing archery. Equally he's very rarely seen without hearing aids, given his hearing from so much time in active combat has somewhat wrecked his hearing. He tends to have a constant almost guarded look in public, trying to keep everyone from getting too close, appearing even almost brooding.
Personality
Ivarr tends to be rather a joker, at least for those who can read sign language. He's also someone who uses his propensity to joking to keep up a guarded wall, keep most people out until he's ascertained if he can trust them or not. Once you've got him to open up as much as he ever does to people who he's not exceptionally close to you have a loyal friend for life, if someone who will prefer to spend his time observing before jumping in head (or feet) first.
Just one note - under no circumstances does he talk, ever since a traumatic event in his past, which was what led to his semi retirement from his original occupation, with a good pension.
History
Ivarr's childhood is... a mixed bag. He didn't do well in school and as soon as he could he enlisted in the army. Not that he was particularly good in that environment, had issues taking things seriously, and a very strong independent streak to boot. However he appeared to get by, and even got enough attention to be enlisted into a ghost unit. One that didn't technically exist, but suited him, given that it was very much special ops, and that allowed him some oversight in just what jobs he did.
He was forced to take retirement after witnessing, and to an extent participating in, triggered him to totally stop talking. He's learnt American Sign Language, and has been given a new job as it were making him into a semi retirement, he'd already planned to settle up in Choteau, and it more then made him happy to discover he was guarding Kristian. The two had worked together previously on another case, and on that time they'd got rather close.
It took some time for them to rediscover that closeness, and there's been dogs added into the mix but now after two years, they're ready to set up their own business and ranch, even if there's noticably less horses.
