Thok - The beginning

Born from Maria a human woman and Wulfgar a Half-orc man, Thok lived in a small village close to the High forest in his youth.

His father hailed from an offshoot uthgardt tribe, The Tree Ghost Tribe and his mother was a former adventurer.

Thok had a relatively peaceful youth growing up helping his father who acted as the village hunter.

And when Thok entered his teens he was stronger than most men in the village only second to his father, Though he was certainly not the brightest even when compared to the uneducated peasants he was stumbling about with just normal words often only being able to puzzle together incomplete sentences.

years later in his late teens One night as fate would have it an event that thok would never forget, Out of what seems like nowhere appeared a band of Orcs, goblins and some hillgiants, Torching the few building there was in the village, slaughtering and dragging off the people and killing the cattle, Thok's father Wulfgar grabbed his Glaive and went to fend off as many as he could but quickly got overwhelmed by the sheer amount of them, he got subdued after a decisive battle when the big and burly hillgiant Borchak crushed the shaft of Wulfgars glaive with a heavy blow.

Thok in despair ran with all his might towards his father who by the time thok reached him was already dead.

Thok threw himself towards the massed up enemies and promptly got hit right over the head and that was Lights out.

When he came to he was surrounded by the corpses of almost everyone he knew, houses where looted and burnt to the ground and the body of his father mangled beyond recognition, while emotional he buried his father's remains by the village great oak.

he picked up what was left of his fathers glaive and tied a rag around his head and ventured south.

while traveling he thought of his mother Maria which he could not remember having seen in the village when he woke up.

He traveled around for Months after what had happened, Many hungry nights he had to endure in the beginning of what would become the loneliest part of his life.

He arrived in the first village/town since he set out, only to be chased out by guards since Thok dared to ask for food in the streets like a beggar.

Thok began keeping away from humans and civilised lands alltogether from that point everytime he could see someone else on the horizon when traveling the road he went quickly into the brush away from the people who would cause him grief.

For about a whole year he was staying away from people and civilised lands alltogether surviving on animals and beasts he killed but it was meagre living on what he managed to hunt, He was not even close to the hunter that his father was, But he had something else he came to realise, His strong and endurable body he glanced at the broken glaive that he had been carrying around all this time maybe if he fix it and learn from what his father thought him about fighting with the glaive then he can become and adventurer like his mother used to be!

with his mind set on becoming stronger and start small just maybe find a chance to prove that he's not an evil orc or the like but an adventurer who helps those in need and make a new life for himself that he himself can do with his own strength.

And with that he set off south to Baldur's gate (unknowingly?!).
