Long Back Story:
When Cheliax was even more powerful than it is today; when it was in the last years of its Imperial glories, Roknaug Hailstraum and several other Half-Orc families moved to just outside of Barrowood. Their dream was to build a separatist community of Half-Orcs where they could feel safe and live a peaceful life tending the land and trading in lumber of barroak wood for ship building and shade maple used for arcane implements. They freely worshiped Erastil the god of family, farming, hunting, and trade and they lived without incident for years. But then the Civil War spun all of Cheliax out of control for thirty years.

Roknaug was able to keep his small community out of the troubles but that may have been only because of the logging his little clan could produce. The clan was not bothered and was left alone but that didn't mean they didn't notice the changes. They were able to see the power shifts and how the new laws and diabolical followings affected the people. Being removed from the cities the clan was not affected directly by the surrendering of morality to the law and order of fiends and House Thrune. They kept their worship of Erastil hidden but it did not wane.
Ragnauk Hailstraum son of Roknaug had a heart of good. He secretly hated what he saw around him. Yes there was Law and Order but at what cost. What evils were being allowed to support the rule? Ragnauk became outraged at what Cheliax had become. Several people of the clan and Ragnauk started to secretly support Revolutionaries that wanted to return Cheliax to its heyday before the rise of the House Thrune. Maybe do what Andoran had done and establish a common rule. Ragnauk had even started to help in the Bellflower Network as a tiller. It took time for him to prove himself to the mostly hafling freedom fighters but after he did he used his cover as a logger to help sneak slaves to their final destination in Andoran.

Magnauk Hailstraum, son of Ragnauk son of Roknaug, grew up learning to help others less fortunate than he was. He loved his father and knew where his family came from and believed that Cheliax could be something more something better. Magnauk knew the risks of helping others and the worship of Erastil, but he never thought of the costs. He learned what the costs were and they were more than steep. He never saw so many Hell knights at once as they descended upon the clan’s meager settlement. They were there to hand out their justice to those that went against the law. And being a secret revolutionary, a Bellflower agent, and a worshiper of Erastil was about as far as you could go against the law.
Magnauk fought with his clan and as he did a rage burst from deep inside of him for the first time ever. He fought as ferocious as a caged animal using a great axe to carve into any Hell knights that stood in his way, but there were too many for the small clan. Magnauk turned after taking down a Hell knight and never saw the metal barbed whip coming towards him. He got hit squarely in the face with the whip ripping a deep gash from the top of his forehead down to and through his upper lip. The wound barely missing his left eye as it cut through his flesh. As he fell he heard one of the Hell knights yell for the Order of the Rack before he passed out.

Magnauk was left for dead as the clan’s houses were burned and the dead left for the vultures to gorge themselves. But Magnauk did not die, because of the kindness of a person just passing through Cheliax. Koya found him barely alive and healed him and took Magnauk out of Cheliax. Koya took him to Sandpoint and he stayed there a short time healing and deciding what he was to do without family or clan. Koya convinced him he should seek out a temple of Erastil and find his purpose.
Magnauk followed her advice and found a temple not far from Sandpoint. He studied and found favor from Erastil in small amounts of divine power but he grew in strength even more. Magnauk has become grim yet determined to gain justice for his lost clan by enacting justice on those that deserve it. But that will have to wait because what he has learned has put a burden on his soul that must be relieved. So he has not returned to Sandpoint simply to thank Koya for saving his life or helping him find purpose, but he has come to repay her for the debt he now owes her. He is honor bound to use his life for hers until he has fully paid her back for what she has done for him. He must find a way to repay Koya for the kindness that was given to him no matter how long it takes. His life is hers and he shall spend his life in Sandpoint until his debt has been paid in full no matter how long it takes.
Physical and Mental description:

Magnauk is full of scars both physical and mental. He is unattractive to the point that Orcs find him ugly. His scars from the Hell knight attack never healed quite right leaving him looked mangled. The largest scar starts at his forehead and travels between his eyes through his nose cutting through his lips. This has left him with a bit of a slurred speech pattern but he is not unintelligible. He is large and very strong for his god has blessed him with power of body more than of magic. His broad shoulders and barrel chest make even large men seem slight. Because of his looks he needed to learn to be very personable. He is able to talk easily to others.

His hatred of evil is only topped by his sense of honor at helping others be free and safe. He has adopted those in need of help as his new clan and would sacrifice himself in order to free others. He is nice to the point of gullibility but even when he finds out he does not react with anger. But if he believes someone has harmed or taken advantage of someone he will apply his judgment without remorse. He also has a blood debt he owes to Koya and plans on repaying it before he dies. He is unsure how this will ever occur but he will make it happen. In the mean time he will stay around town looking to help out where he can and looking for evil to vanquish.
