Born in CelebriƤn, Foropode was a master of ice magic. He harnessed elemental energies, create powerful magic items, new spells, and advancing others. He was the first to change the fire property of the spell Fireball to one of air and water, creating the spell Iceball.

At the head of the Chemosh Glacier, he employed Thrallrir and frost giants, building an ornate hold named Snowflake Manse.

In Order 3C, a national plan of civilizing the people that would become the Drugnod Dynasty (546 - 746), Forope took the side of the those against centralized control. He became a mercenary for the gnoll tribes fighting to keep their nomadic ways. Foropode wrecked havoc on Drugnod's soldiers. He became so feared that even a rumor of him being in the area made units turn away. Gaufthaur Drugnod, leader of the Drugnod Dynasty, decided to personally deal with the bothersome wizard. She, along with many elite attendants cornered Foropode in his kingly Snowflake Manse.

On 2 Temporal 555, Foropode was struck down by Gaufthaur's weapon, the Osyluth Scythe. Entombed in a block of ice, Foropode was taken back to Kennel where he is sometimes brought out to display to foreign dignitaries or simply to amuse the city's current leader, the demon Yack-Leban.

Foropode's most well-known magical creation is the Icelandic Staff. Although not as well known, his tomes were instrumental in the making of the artifacts Blizzard & Firestorm.
