[QUOTE="Jemal, post: 3431404, member: 9026"] I'm sorry, I read the last sentence and laughed so hard I hurt my throat! I've been accused of power gaming so I don't think that'll be a problem, though this concept is hard to optimize at low levels. By 5 I'll be kicking most fighter/brb's butts, just gotta make it there. A Greatsword fighter or Dual-wielder would kick so much more ass at this level, but the flavour has pretty much gone from those for me. Also I see Darimaus is applying, I think we do good work together so if we both get in that could be fun.

She had been the concubine of the great Orc leader, and was carrying his bastard son when they brought her back. The woman was near death and weak, childbirth too much for her to bear, and so the monks pulled the too-large baby from her still-cooling body. He grew up in the monastery, and they tried for several years to instill in him the discipline they studied, but his lineage fought back, the child being overly aggressive. Soon they decided that this was not the place for him (After he broke one of his fellows arms in a wrestling match), and sent him out into the world at the age of 13. After roaming for 4 years, he finally found a bit of balance within himself, bringing to terms his chaotic heritage with his overly-strictured upbringing. He is quiet and seems withdrawn and slow, though any to say so (Or bring undue attention to his half-breed heritage) would likely find out the hard way that he does not like being the butt of jokes.
