This human was found in an abandoned cottage a year or two after being born by an orc called Uggokh, one of the last orcs remaining of the clan Braduk (an inactive clan from the Rexdom of Krugmar). Uggokh was not interested in taking care of the baby at the beginning, but realized how strong he seemed to be by not eating anything at all for probably days, this was, of course, not true, given that his mother had been feeding him the last days before dying at the claws of a bear some hours before being found. In the next few years, the orc taught the child how to survive in the wilderness and started to even love him, but something began to grow in Uggokh’s mind, his natural curse: “What would happen if I killed this child?”. Time passed and the orc’s bloodlust got worse, until one day he couldn’t resist the temptation and forced the boy into a fight. Interestingly enough, the child didn’t refuse, but only asked one question: “Would your clan be happy knowing that you killed the only kid that’s left? I thought children were valuable to orcs… Maybe I was wrong though…”. That response stopped the orc, the kid was right, so he decided to commit suicide before doing any harm to the boy. Till this day, the boy never felt remorse for the death of his adoptive father or anyone he hurts. None of the people that he has interacted with have tried to put these ideas in him; to some, it seems he was simply born this way. Uggokh never gave him a name either, so he decided to put one himself: The Talker, or Talky to some people.
"Why, hello there, handsome man! I'm looking for new things to try in this beautiful city, do you have any ideas?" He says, smiling sweetly while doing it. He didn't expect someone to talk to him, but nevertheless accept it.
