In-Character:

Character Name: Oruin Garltuum

What Race are you?: Human

What Sub-Race are you? (note, you aren’t required to have a sub-race):

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.): Oruin Garltuum, now that is a tale truly sad indeed. He was born not 22 years ago to a local village mage and his mysterious wife who died during childbirth. For nine years his Father grieved over his mother but then he stopped. For the next 2 years he became very isolated, and the whole village feared his every move. He took a long trip to the mages Collage. When he returned he was however a different man altogether, he was dark and chaotic, he spurned Oruin to a point of absolute hatred of this father.

Then one day he found a diary belonging to his father, which spoke of bringing his mother back from the dead. When he found this he showed it to one of the village elders, having a sheltered life he had no idea what he had done. Then one night he looked out of his window and there outside were an angry mob of village people shouting words like ‘necromancer’ and ‘heretic’. Then his father ran into his room and simply said “Run, run, run, run my boy and don’t look back, I love you.”

So that’s what Oruin did and he lived in the wild for seven years where he found and befriended a lone wolf like himself. He has recently emerged from the wilderness and returned to the village which was no in ruins from an orc raid he gathered. When he can to the ruins of his old home he found just a huge pile of ash. Then he went to visit his mother’s grave, where he found a note with just four words on it, it read ‘Her name was Whitestorm’. Upon reading this he vowed that he would find his lost family and so went forth, with just his wits, his wolf and his mother’s name.

He has messy brown hair, and usually wears his battered leather armour. He has a very untrusting nature as he was betrayed by the village, also he is quite vengeful and loathing, as he brought about his father’s demise (or so he believes). His favourate food is bread as that was what kept him alive during his time in the wilderness.

What is your Character's ambitions?: His main ambition is to find his mother’s family, and his dark secret ambition is to bring back his mother and father. He also wants to train to become a better archer

What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc): His favorite tool is a hoe, as he used this to farm and stay alive in the wilderness.

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents? He is very adept with a bow as he taught himself to use one that he stole from the village, when he was young.

A screenshot of your skin (must be in proper format):(Screen shot of my skin was in my previous post however when I try to upload it to this post I get an error message, sorry for any inconvenience.)

Other Information about your Character: He was taught some very minor healing spells by his father.

Open-Response-Questions

Whilst traveling from the Cloud Temple you see a small halfling, being harassed by two armed warriors. They appear to be trying to steal money from him, how does your character respond?

The pant of Oruin’s breath looks like smoke in the cold air and he watches the deer skip across the path. He has been hunting it for days now, as it bends down to drink from a pool of rain water Oruin pulls back his bow string to let loose the deadly arrow. He allows this poor creature to have one last drink, whilst watching this he thinks ‘Every creature deserves one last meal’. Just as he is about to pull the string back and end the beasts life he hear “GIVE IT TOO ME NOW HALFLING!” Oruin quickly lets loose the arrow but it is too late the beast is gone. He sneaks along the road side to get a better view of the man who has lost him his meal. At the side of the road he see’s two men harassing a young Halfling. He approaches with caution so as to not alarm the men. He asks with concern in his voice “What has this creature done to deserve this?” The man who appears to be in charge turns to face him with a look of hate in his eyes. This reminds Oruin of the village people the night his father died. He slowly takes out two arrows from his quiver inconspicuously as the man replies “He is a filthy Halfling who is just about to give us all his money” he turns to the Halfling “Aren’t you.” Oruin looks at him with contempt and say in a determined voice “Just leave the lad be or else you’ll be sorry.” “Is that a threat?” the man laughs. “No it’s a promise.” With that the man charges at him with his sword whilst his companion keeps on beating up the Halfling. As the man starts running Oruin notches his arrow and let’s loose hitting the man in the gut. Upon seeing his leader dead the other man runs away down the road. As he passes the Halfling he throws him a loaf of bread saying “There you go lad be more careful next time.” With that he departs into the trees to find out where that deer got to.

Your character wanders into Alras, and comes across a small stall, behind which a well dressed man is standing. He’s offering various wares, the merchant turns to you and says in a posh accent " 'ello there, what can I do you for today?" What is your character response?

“Hmmm hello you seem ‘very’ friendly, but yes I would like to buys some equipment from you. I would like 30 arrows, one iron sword and a leather helmet please. Oh and just so you know if you charge me extortionate prices I will be forced to find a vendor who is more understanding of my circumstances.”

Whilst wandering in the wilds, your character comes across a small hut, which looks abandoned. Inside it you see a chest containing a few iron bars, and a golden sword. How would your character respond?:

Upon leaving the town he finds himself at a hut, upon seeing this (what seems abandoned) hut he decides to wait to see if anyone comes back. He sets himself up in the long grass and waits. After four hours of waiting he goes into the hut and finds a chest. He is about to open it when he quite randomly looks up and see’s a net which upon further inspection is attached to the lock of the chest. He leaves abruptly after seeing this just as he goes back into the grass he sees a group of goblins go in there and shout “Ther’ ain’t noffin ere t’day!”

Hungry and lost in the wilderness, you stumble across a small trading camp nestled among the forest, they greet you in their common tongue, how do you respond?

He feels the hunger creeping over him at an alarming rate, “must find food soon, urgh.” As he turns the corner he sees a small trading camp where the villagers are very friendly. They offer him food for which he gives them a large sum of money. After a few weeks of resting he sets out again with the goodbyes of the villagers echoing in his ears.

You hear word that bandits occupy the road outside the town in which you have been staying. The town guard have gathered, and are asking for assistance to help eliminate them. The leader of the party is offering a reward for any who offer their support. How does your character act on this information?:

He grudgingly accepts the task as that road is the way he wants to go. Upon expecting the armour and equipment of the task force assembled he is more inclined to do this task. As payment for his services he asks the town captain for information about the Whitestorms. Upon hearing this, the captain laughs “Oh oi laddy yea should check Alras is where they were last I heard.” With that he heads off to Alras with some generous donation from the towns folk for his services.

(Hawk Whitestorm has given me permission to use the Whitestorm name.)
