Next I present to you Azerot, follower of the deity of Elemental Forces, Kabod.  Azerot and his gnomish sidekick Cinder represent the Order of Smoke and have proven their worth in defending the city and helping the poor through generous donations.Finally this hulking brute to my right is Storm.  He has been in Tronus for little over a month and his name has been the talk of the town.  This half-Ogre Magi, half-Human hulk of muscle proudly displays his draconic heritage while snuffing out evil like a smoldering torch.”After the speech was over, the Defenders were greeted by various benefactors that helped contribute the forming and supplying of the new team.  They met Jorg Bonesnapper, representing the Black Fist Orc Clan from the openlands, Remaire Tellows, a councilman of Jorbash to the south, and Helsa Quintal, the Sultan of Kaldrid’s daughter.  Among the most notable were Prince Geldric Goldbeard from Goldborough who presented each member with 1,000 gold each printed with their face on it and finally the foreign Emperor Tatsuma Kashiro.  Tatsuma was well known for his love of Tronus and many say that he spends more time within it’s walls than on his own continent of Ieroden.Before the ceremony was over Tatsuma called the attention of the Defenders, “I pre-zent you wich a blade that represent my love for your cit-y.”As he drew a fabulous light blue blade from it’s scabbard he continued, “Her name is Kao and she is as beaut-iful as she is deadly.”Storm graciously accepted the katana on behalf of the team and continued to make the Emperor’s company while the others mingled with the crowds in the after-party that lasted well into the night.</blockquote>
