Description:
Davak is driven by curiosity about the world he no longer remembers. He wants to explore it, find interesting things in it, and generally get himself involved (perhaps unwisely) in any situation he may find himself in. He comes across as surprisingly calm and collected for a half-orc, occasionally excitable but not overly angry. He seems to enjoy every experience he has, as though he's tasting some rare delicacy or hearing a particularly intriguing sound.

Davak is about six and a half feet tall; average for a half-orc. His skin is a dull grey, his hair black, straight, and long, and he lacks the tusks some other half-orcs have. His eyes, though, appear to be darker than they should be, a gray that's almost black. He wears an almost-cliche outfit of a chain shirt, rough leather pants, a greataxe, and a cloak. He also carries a wand that he has figured out how to use---most of the time.

Story:
He woke up in the darkness, not knowing who or what he was. When he stumbled back into the small cave complex, they said he was a half-orc named Davak, a protector of this small group of misfits hiding in the caverns below the surface. But he had changed. It was as though Davak had been overcome by something out there in the darkness---perhaps by the darkness itself. He now had an ability to manipulate the darkness, even to cause it to solidify and attack his foes.

He continued on as a protector, keeping the half-breeds and deformed and those rejected by society safe from predation in the dark tunnels. But an overwhelming curiosity had lodged in his mind. What was this "Light" and "Sky" the others mentioned? They said he had seen it himself, but he had no recollection of it. He decided he must go see for himself. What new discoveries or perils might Davak find in this new, wide world?
