Amagous's Biography

[Amagous 4]

Name: Amagous (His birth name has been lost to time)

Title: He is not yet worthy of a title

Gender: Male

Age: Likely 25 years of age. His adoptive tribe found him 23 years, 162 days ago, and he was a mere baby at the time. He considers the day he was found the day he was born, and keeps records of time and his age as such.

Race: Human

Occupation: Ever-changing. He is on a pilgrimage to bring both honor and glory to himself and his adoptive tribe any way he can.

Appearance: 6'2 feet tall,

Hobbies: Slaying creatures that have no honorable purpose, collecting books and scriptures of knowledge, challenging Dwarves to drinking contests and challenging Orcs to wrestling and friendly unarmed combat

Notable Achievements: So far, there have been few things that have brought honor upon Amagous and his adoptive tribe. But, the few that have happened, he has recorded.

-Killing his first monstrous spider(slightly larger than your average Orc) at the age of 13 with nothing for armament and armor other than his crude linen clothing and a wooden club. He earned honor for passing his initiation from peon to tribal member.

-Assisting in a battle between his adoptive tribe and some human raiders at the age of 15. He did not kill any raiders in the fight, but he fought with Orc-like ferocity, a trait rarely seen among humans. He earned both respect and honor among his tribe for it.

History: Amagous has no knowledge of his parents or where he came from. He was abandoned as a baby. How, why, and where escape his ever-growing knowledge. All he knows of his origins is that from as far back as he can remember, there were Orcs. Always Orcs. Orcs that could have eaten him, could have left him to die, or could have toyed with him. But these were not the savages of myth. Instead, they took the helpless infant with them back to their home with in the swamps, and there he was raised as one of their own.

The Human traits of pain, desperation, fear, and treachery were slowly worked out of him over the years, replaced with the Orcish traits of blood lust, honor, unwavering courage, and loyalty. He was shown no mercy and no sympathy. He was expected to show only what he was shown; Strength. Just as young Orcs had to prove themselves to the tribes warriors, so did he. He would earn honor for victories as they did, shame himself with failures as they did, fight as they did, and eat as they did. Everything about him became familiar to his Orc Brethren.

OOC: I was feeling far more creative earlier. When my creative streak returns, I plan to greatly expand on this history. Until then, that's all.

A very intriguing start to your biography. It is always good and a pleasure to see orcs do such good deeds.
