About Thorakiz Grimblood
Scarred and twisted in his childhood because of his 'small' stature, Thorakiz grew up abandoned, forced to fight for existence among the tribal camps of his species. His childhood is not unlike most of his kind, for existence for the orc is not a given. They are forced to exist off the land, to fight for what they achieve, promoting savagery at every opportunity.
In his childhood, Thorakiz suffered a nearly mortal head wound, that struck him dumb for most of his childhood and adolescence. He eventually relearned to communicate with grunts and hand gestures. When the orc settlement was attacked by humans, Thorakiz hid, uncertain how to deal with this new threat with his impaired existence. He saw his mother and father cut down, but the orcs do not value family relationships. Still, he had to do something, and picked up a heavy blade dropped by one of the fallen humans.
Despite his best efforts, the humans won the day. Thorakiz was not killed, but taken as a captive, eventually to become a personal servant/bodyguard of Prince Barindal. After several years as his servant/bodyguard, Thorakiz eventually learned the meanings of kindness and goodness. He no longer lived an existence based on cruelty and fighting for every thing.
Loyalty is seldom kept between servant and master, however. Eventually one turns on the other. For Thorakiz, as the Prince aged beside him, he became gradually more cruel and sadistic, finding pleasure in the pain of others, taking from the poor to pursue his own entertainments. Eventually even Thorakiz suffered from the brunt end of this stick, as Prince Barindal took some of his most valuable possessions to settle a gambling debt.
Thorakiz was forced to steal wealth from a nearby church, even, at the Prince's demand. And this led him down a dark spiral for a time. It was his prince's command, not his own value that drove him forward. Still, he continues to tell himself that it was a necessary act. He was caught in the act and forced to flee that nation for a time. He found himself drawn back to the wilderness, where his survival skills came back into play. Here he has remained to this day.
