Biography (Please make this at least 2 paragraphs long. This must include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.):

At thirty-four years old, Ogril has been at work for twenty-four of those years. At the age of ten, Ogril started his blacksmithing profession with his late father. After a few battles his father was sent back home dead, and Ogril was to carry on the family tradition. Ogril had to upkeep the forge. Only fourteen years of age, Ogril was easily the best blacksmith in the village. Ogril worked hard in to please his customers. Ogril had created many an axe, many a pick, many a sword. When he came of age to wed, he picked a solemn girl, who hid most of her life. He fell in love and he brightened her life. She became outgoing and normal. Pleased, Ogril continued to man the forge, when his newly-wed came running home in rags.

"An attack!" she cried, running in fear. Ogril picked up his unfinished axe and ran out of the forge. Buildings on fire, and citizens lying in pools of blood, Ogril had to act fast. He ran out to a strange stone tower and climbed it, only later finding it to be the remains of a fireplace. He scouted ahead, and saw a group of bandits attacking innocents. Ogril leapt down, only to sprain an ankle. I can't fight them off with this ankle, he thought, grimacing as he walked. He started a sprint to get away from the village, but then realized he forgot some things. He half-ran half-limped to the blacksmith, grabbed his trusted hammer, a few pieces of scrap metal and wood, and one-legged it out of the village. After a few miles, all he could see of his old life was ashes and soot. Ogril had to start a new life, alone, his wife missing. As he travelled in search of a new home, he found his wife's body. She looked to have starved to death. He sadly buried her and kept moving, putting all emotions aside. Finally, he reached what seemed to be life.

What is your Character's ambitions?:

He wishes to stay a blacksmith, in whatever village he begins to live in.

What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc):

When working, Ogril loves his trusted hammer, but when it's time to fight, he grabs a war axe off the shelf of his smithy.

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents?

Blacksmithing.

A screenshot of your skin (must be in proper format):

Other Information about your Character:
