Biography  (Please make it a decent two paragraphs long. Remember to add three references to the server lore.): (where does your character come from?; where have they traveled to?; what year were they born in? et cetera.) Mako, while pale of skin and frail of frame, never got to live the lavish life of a High Elven Noble. When the young elfling was knee-high to a dwarf, his family took a traveling ship across the ocean, mostly for a vacation, however their boat was violently attacked by a disturbed sea creature. Part of the boat, specifically the one that Mako and his mother were on, was torn apart and the two drifted off to sea. Mako's mother, determined to save her child from the terrors of the open sea, put together a makeshift raft and while it wasn't enough to save both of them, Mako himself floated on until he hit the shore of a nearby fishing village. What would follow would be a tough life of survival. The fishing-town was more like a bandit retreat and while bandits could see the use of a young high-elf, that didn't mean they made living conditions more than terrible. Mako would be taken on raids, made to steal from Nobles, and so on, until he was about seven years of age. On his seventh birthday, he hitched a ride with a merchant wagon making it's way far from the bandits, and to The Uzg.
As disaster seemed to follow this poor Elf, his ride with the Merchant would come to a stop, due to being caught right in the middle of a battle between human hedge-wizards, and small group of the Gorkil Clan of Orcs. The Orcs slaughtered the hedge-wizards and the Merchant, leaving his wagon to be engulfed by flames. Mako, fearing for his life, laid lifeless on the ground, making sure to blend in with the blood-filled mess. The Orcs, who were already celebrating their countless victories, walked right over his seemingly-lifeless body. The Elf didnt move for two days, not asleep, but also not totally awake.
When Mako did come to his senses, he found himself in the middle of at least fifty corpses, bloodied and half-naked. Taking an Orcish axe and the robes of a wizard, he retreated to the forest. From weeks on, he spent his time hunting fish, or any small mammal he could get his hands on, and eating raw meat. Day by day, he seemed less like an Elf and more like an animal, growling and clawing through the untamed woods.

Years went by and Mako found himself less interested in the forest that he had spent most his life in and more interested in the travelers that went through it. Sure, he couldnt understand what they said or why brandished weapons when they saw him, but they were interesting nonetheless. Finally his curiosity piqued by a traveling caravan filled with colorful characters of all different races. He followed them some time and when he came to the point of no-return, he left the feral forest behind and set off on a new adventure, axe in hand and meat in his bag.

Personality Traits: As it's the only thing he knows, Mako enjoys running through the mountains, playing in the wild-flowers, and sometimes stalking the occasional woodsman.

Ambitions: Being an Elf, he's constantly curious about the world around him, but truly wants to be respected among the Orcs. When it comes to other predators, he sees them more as a challenge, as he's grown to be very territorial.

Strengths/Talents:  An excellent trapper and is fairly good at moving quietly through forests.

Weaknesses/Inabilities: He has little to no knowledge of magic whatsoever, and when it comes to an up-close and personal fight, his lack of girth and muscle-mass means the only way he can win a fight is by being crafty. Short-tempered and also has a hard time speaking any language at all. His only known skills with weaponry are that of Orcish design.

Appearance: Clothes mostly stolen off of caravans, a poncho that was gifted to him by an old gypsy. Pretty indistinct from another High-Elf, except for the fact that he's probably pretty dirty, has many, many scars on his body, and Orcish-styled war-paint on his face.

Skin:
