Well, here's my proposed character (character sheet attached):
Deacon Ambersharn comes from a relatively simple town. He enlisted as a soldier at a young age, and displayed considerably prowess on the batttle-field, such that his commanders decided to give him and some other select soldiers special training, turning them into a sort of elite soldiers, trained to protect the most important of government and military officials. His services were soon called upon, as his city was subject to a prolonged war with an ambitious Orc chieftain. The city eventually began to crumble under the waves of Orcs sent against them, and Deacon and a few of the others in his regiment were assigned to evacuate the Thane and his family. However, on their way out, they were waylaid and captured by the Orcish chieftain. After a good few months of imprisonment (during which he picked up the basics of the Giant language), Deacon and one of his allies managed to escape, but the Thane had already been tortured and killed. Knowing that they would be discharged from the army should they return having failed to protect such an important figure, the two went their separate ways, away from their city. Deacon was looking for a place were he might put his talents to use, working a few odd jobs as a mercenary to make some money, when he discovered the adventuring party, and decided to travel with them, and found that not only could he help to right the wrongs of the world, but could also make a decent living doing so. When heard of the giant menace, he simply readied his hammer and polished up his armor, and headed to answer the call.
