[QUOTE="Calico_Jack73, post: 1412813, member: 14403"] Okay, I'll post what I have written up for his background. Don't laugh, the story about his parents is actually from a previous D&D campaign that I played in where one of the people played Hammar. We played through "A Paladin in Hell" as the climax of the campaign which is where my character's background begins. [COLOR=Red][I][B]Appearance, Traits + Disadvantages[/B] Wears a blood red do rag over his shaven head. Eyes glow a smouldering red and have no pupils which is the only sign of his fiendish parent. Skin is very tan from living out on the steppe with his father's tribe. Has tribal tatoos along each arm and scars which are a reminder of his tribe's manhood ritual. [B]History[/B] Motzog is the child of Hammar and Lilith. Hammar was a great half orc adventurer in his own right and after defeating Azmodeus' plans decided to return to his father's tribe and take it over. After handidly defeating the current tribal chieftan, Hammar turned his tribe away from the worship of Grummush to a shamanistic religion similar to the druids. Lilith was a Succubus who once an adversary of Hammar's felt a uncontrolable desire for the Half Orc and for a short time became his bride. It was in that brief union that Motzog was concieved. Lilith's heart was forever turned. For the first time in her long existence she loved someone more than herself, Hammar and the newly born Motzog. Knowing there was no way she could raise Motzog since her enemies would use the babe to get at her she took the newborn child and gave it to Hammar to raise in the Orkish tradition. After delivering the baby she disappeared into the Abyss and hasn't been seen since. Motzog grew up quickly and while he isn't the sharpest tool in the shed he had all the makings of a great warrior. He grew up listening to the stories told by Hammar of his adventuring days and meeting all of his father's old adventuring comrades when they came to visit. Hammar knew that an adventurers life was for him so as soon as he became recognized in the tribe as an adult he set out into the wide world little knowing of the adventure that was to come. [B]Goals[/B] Motzog wants nothing more than to become a hero in the legends and tales told by the bards. He also wants to prove himself in the eyes of his father. He has never met his mother and at some point would like to find her.[/I][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
