Backstory:
Tiberius Badaxe hails from a long line of soldiers. He can trace his lineage back to a general from the Shining Crusade, and his family helped settle and has defended Lastwall ever since that time. Tiberius, third child of four, had always looked forward to taking his place in the border guard. There he would aid in defending the lands of civilization from threats from both The Hold of Belkzen and Ustalav. He grew up training with his brothers and neighbors, learning to use weapons and armor effectively, and learning the strategies of the orcs and undead, both hated enemies of the nation.

Everything changed when the fire demon attacked. It was unexpected, traveling down from the Worldwound through Ustalav, and it ravaged the countryside of Lastwall for days. The Knights of Ozem finally arrived with magical support and put it down, but the damage had been done. Tiberius nearly died the first night with the rest of his kin, but woke several weeks later after an endless nightmare that would plague his sleep for years to come.

Orcs are savage, and the undead merciless, but Tiberius had seen the face of the world's real enemy. He learned what he could about demons, completed his training over the next few years, and then left for the Worldwound. His goal is no longer glory, or his family's honor, or even his nation. He is convinced that by fighting the demons, he can help save the world.


Personality:
Tiberius is very straightforward in his approach to dealing with other people. He is decently smart for "front-line muscle," and will come to conclusions quickly, crafting strategies that take full advantage of his personal strengths and weaknesses. This subtlety is often lost on people, since his battle strategies usually involve, "I'll hit it with an axe until it stops moving because it's probably weak to massive blood loss or decapitation."

Tiberius enjoys his beer. One day, once he has saved the world, he wants to make his own brewery. He'll call it "Badaxe Beer," and maybe one day people will remember him for something other than being the guy who killed things really well. He has a love of both stories and drink, and finds that one tends to enhance the other.

He is very open-minded. He believes that after seeing death and fire consume his entire village, there's not a whole lot that can faze him. You can even be a demon-spawn tiefling and he wouldn't give you a second glance, as long as you're not using your powers to hurt others in a non-consenting way.

Tiberius is impatient. He cracks his knuckles habitually when he's getting bored. He's prone to motion sickness and hates travelling by boat.
