[QUOTE="zyzzyr, post: 555457, member: 1867"] My latest character: Targ/Tendal, half-orc wiz1/ftr2/bbnX: I was an orphan in my orc tribe - my mother was a human prisoner who subsequently died, and my father murdered in a quarrel. At the age of 7 my tribe was raided by a human army. I was captured an carried far away. I was eventually released into the custody of a human wizard, within a large city. For years he trained me to be a wizard, but I just wasn't that good at it. I do not know exactly what happened, but he did get into frequent arguments with the military sergeant, who eventually took me away from the wizard when I was 18. For 3 years I was in the military, perhaps, I guessed, being trained to attack my own people - whom I had now come to recognize as evil, barbaric people. The surprise, I assumed, would be that I could cast an occasional spell. On a mission into orc land, my troop was ambushed. My superiors were immediately executed, and the orcs kept me around for some "fun". I quickly fell into the rhythm of the orc tribe, and recalled all that I knew - this was the first time I had seen an orc tribe again. Days wore on, and no soldiers came to rescue me. I had to resort to my orc ways to survive, which I did. I became disgusted with so-called "civilized" society, and joined the tribe. Currently, I am aiming to exact revenge on the military men first, then the wizard who kidnapped me. I overcompensate by being overwhelmingly orc-like, and am very devoted to Gruumsh, the orc god.
