Segovax is a towering monstrous specimen of an orc possessing a massive muscular frame, honed to iron from a lifetime of physical struggle where raw muscle and endurance were the only thing between life and meaningless death. His wild dark hair is cropped short, a common choice among his savage kin. The same dark hair grows thick along his powerful torso, arms, and legs and beneath that his green-grayish skin is riddled with scars, some of which are from injuries while others were ritualistically self-inflicted. A number of dark tattoos also decorate his flesh, the most prominent being the bloody axe of Nulgreth scribed across his left pectoral. A pair of thick iron-capped tusks dominate his bestial face.
When dressed for war he wears a suit of worn and rusted scale armor and wields a brutal double-headed orcish axe in his huge gnarled hands. When not prepared for battle he's garbed in very little, often clad only a flimsy loincloth, putting his impressive physique on full display to intimidate his enemies and as a promise of the destruction that will come to any that might challenge him.

Background:
Segovax, simply Seg to most, is a orc brute born among the brutal Murdered Child tribe of Belkzen orcs. His exact parentage is unclear but most suspect he's at least half bugbear due to his towering frame and hairy hide. A bottle smashed against his skull during a bloody brawl damaged his eyesight but had the side effect of making him immune to the sun's punishing brightness. Despite his fearsome size, Segovax wasn't spared any of the cruelties known to growing orcs and learned at a young age that strength was the only virtue that ever mattered.
His cruel domineering presence was picked up on early and nurtured by the tribe's skilled beast-tamers. Under their tutelage he learned what it took to master the deadly primeval beasts of Belkzen and prides himself on the half-mad stallion he broke when he was just a pup. He began to look on with envy at the giant cats and war-bulls under the command of the senior beast-tamers, vowing to control one of his own someday soon.
Recently he has grown tired of serving lesser warlords and dreams of conquest occupy his waking thoughts. The thought of the Murdered Child under the command of half-human 'Hundrux Half-Man' began to anger him and, though not a pious orc by any means, he knows Nulgreth patron to the greatest warriors would want greater things of him. A champion must dominate those that oppose him. The strong must rule the weak.
Persona/Motivation:
Segovax is an big brute with big appetites and even bigger dreams of glory. He loves to feast, f!+%, and fight and more importantly win fights and his tendency to dominate extends to the poor animals in his care. He's cruel, vicious, and a bully but not without his virtues. He is known to be good to those that prove their loyalty and has some sense of honor - hey nobody's perfect.
His endgame is to return with a mighty tribe of his own, crush Hundrux Half-Man, and claim the Murdered Child and their lands as his own.
