Guruk Graal

Unread post by mrieder79 »

First Name: Guruk
Last Name: Graal

Appearance: Guruk is a big, thick, green-skinned half-orc who leans toward his orcish heritage in looks and behavior.
Race: Half-Orc
Age: 24
Height: 7'
Weight: 400 lbs
Eyes: Dark Brown
Hair: Bald
Facial Hair Style: Dark lambchops

Personality Profile: Guruk wears a scowl which seems permanently etched upon his prominent brow. He is rude, unpleasant, and direct about his usually unsocial feelings. Despite his social shortcomings, Guruk is very loyal to his kin. He views Orcs as the supreme race and all others as weaklings whose primary purpose is as prey.

General Health: Very healthy, rarely sick.
Deity: Gruumsh
Initial Alignment: Lawful Evil
Profession: Hunter, Warrior, Scout
Base Class & Proposed Development: Primarily Fighter/Warrior of Darkness with some Rogue and Dragon Warrior levels to be taken as well.
Habits/Hobbies: Hunting, Looting, Axecarvings
Languages: Orc, Goblin
Weapon of Choice: Greataxe

Background: Guruks' Great-grandfather was a hulking, surly human who lived among the orcs for a time, earning a reputation as a fierce and ruthless warrior and hunter. Guruk strongly favors his orcish inheritance in all but his great-grandfathers cunning. At a young age, Guruk's strength and intelligence set him apart and he earned a high rank among the elite scouts of his tribe.

His surliness and success soon brought plots against him and Guruk found himself politically outmaneuvered as a new tribe shaman rose to prominence and after being bribed by several of Guruk's rivals, banished him from his tribe. He perceived this as a betrayal by his entire tribe and the pain of that betrayal fueled his already violent and ill-tempered disposition. His wanderings have brought him to the Sword Coast where he is seeking little beyond survival, as that is all he has known since his exile.

Goals: Guruk has no goals beyond survival, but he feels a longing to fill the void that tribal exile has left within him. Although generally unpleasant, Guruk is not devoid of feelings and will search for something to fill the void.

Possible Plot-Hook Ideas and Misc Facts:
Before exile, Guruk was renown for crafting totems with his greataxe. He made several fine pieces that, to his knowledge, still grace his tribal chief's tent today.
