Full Name: Zag'Goregar
Current Age: 16
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Zag'Goregar was a very unfortunate cub. Things always tended to fall down around him from something as small as sacks of flour to things as big as rocks falling off of mountains, this made him a very timid cub and adult. He fights as ruthless as any other Orc, but if the fight is around anything he deems too unstable he gets nervous and it affects his morale and fighting. Due to this, people were always afraid to take him on raids, and Orcs leading war efforts never trusted him in anything but open field combat. From this, Zag'Goregar has less fighting experience compared to other Orcs, but he doesn't let that keep him from trying.
On his 16th birthday, Zag decided it was time to face his fears and try to overcome them. After doing his morning ritual of checking to make sure his immediate surroundings to make sure nothing will be falling down while he is around, he heads to a fire pit that a few Orcs are eating around. Sitting down grabbing a piece of cow meat, he listens in on the stories the other Orcs are telling. Great tales of brave Orcs who have done big things. The one Zag liked the most was the story of Lur and the taking of San'lur. After a few hours of eating, laughing, and enjoying the stories Zag went back to his sleeping place and decided that when he woke up, he would be a new Orc. One that wasn't afraid of the things that happened to him as a cub.
When he awoke, he ignored his normal waking habit of checking to make sure everything is
sturdy and instead grabbed his sword and rushed towards the nearest forest, ready to get some combat training around the trees he feared would fall. As he got closer to the forest, worry and fear set in, he started speaking to himself to try and calm his nerves.
"Dose treez aren't dat scarey, mi bet mi cud cut through dem in ash klomp!"
His own voice reassuring himself, he rushed into the forest ready to find a howlur or buub to kill. He was slightly startled when he heard a low growl coming from a bush to his left. Zag grinned as he readied his sword and turned towards the howlur, "Come here lat pushdug howlur, Mi kill lat in ash klomp!"
Upon hearing his voice, the howlur charged bearing its' fangs. When the howlur jumps trying to bite into Zags arm, he quickly raises his sword causing the wolf to bite down into it, hurting it's mouth. Zag laughed, gaining confidence as the howlur crouched down, blood running out of its' mouth as it leaps back in for another attack. Zag blocks the howlurs attack, however it knocks him off balance, sending him backwards forcefully into a rotting tree. The tree shutters and creaks as it falls. Zag stares wide eyed at the tree as a thick branch breaks and falls towards him. At the same time, the howlur jumps and latches its' thick teeth into Zags arm, causing him to collapse. As the howlur lifts its' paw to Zags throat, the branch slams into the howlurs' body, instantly breaking many of its bones as it lets out a loud cry, letting go of the orcs arm. Zag stares at the scene for a few moments before getting up, ripping off a piece of cloth from his loincloth and wrapping it around his wound. Zag makes a worried smile and pats the trunk of the tree,
"Lat ain't so bad, save mi life!"
Zag then quickly runs out of the forest before any more howlurs come or any other trees decide to fall.Zag quickly makes it to his sleeping place and falls into a deep sleep. Dreams of him being a great Orc hero, pillaging villages conquering towns, and chopping down every forest along the way.
"Stupidz treez,"
Zag mumbles groggily as he wakes. He feels good about himself, he feels good that he's on the path of conquering his fears. Though that doesn't stop him from doing his morning ritual of making sure everything is sturdy...
Ambitions for the Future: To make some good friends and conquer his fears of things falling on top of him.
Personality: A helpful orc, usually nice to people he considers friends and allies. Though when around places that don't look as sturdy as he liked, he turns into a massive worrywart.
Skills: Can use a sword decently well, knows basic medicine and mending. He can swim and cook meals.
Appearance (this must include an in-game
screenshot of your skin): (I attached the image to the post) Standard looking Orc with shaggy black hair and brown eyes. He usually has cuts on his hands from his forceful checkings of various things sturdiness.
Any other details you wish to share about your character: Nope.

You are roaming the mighty capital of the War Nation Of Uruks, as you near the Arena you spot an Orc, wearing what seems to be human garbs as he looks at you he smiles and say out loud in common not in blah “Come friend let me teach you of civilization and break your mind from this orcish savagery!”, how do you react?
Answer:
Zag smiles as he responds,
"What would mi want tu be a Quikspawn? Mi bet lat dont even like da wunderz of mud!" Zag then walks up to the odd Orc and places a hand on his shoulder, "If lat wuntz to enjoy da great feelz of mud between da toez again, juz azk!" Zag then walks away laughing.

Answer:
Zag cheers as he follows the nearest group of Orcs to the outside of the arena. Following them eventually takes you to a group of breedurs. Three adult females, and three male children. Letting out a cry, the small group rushes to them and ties their arms and legs and starts hauling them back. They order Zug to carry the children. The woman cry to let the children live, and to just take them instead. As your fellow orcs tell the women to shut up Zug can't help but feel this is bad. Zug sighs as he whispers to the children,
"Now lat gruk thiz. Thiz not act of mercy, thiz act ub fear. Go to yer clan, tell dem wut happened and dat if dey wunt dere clanz to be zafe, day better ztay away from us!"
Zag then cuts the children free, doing a fake cry of pain as he drops the children and they scurry away.One of the orcs walks up and punches him in the head, "Lat a glob! You let dem go! Can youz do anythingz right? The orc walks away mumbling angrily as Zag sits there rubbing his head.
3. As you are travelling in the barren Orcish deserts you come across a quiet oasis. Beside it sits a small tent where a young orc is preparing a meal of roasted halfling. He calls you over, offering you to join in with his meal. What does your character do?
Answer:
Zag smiles and cheerifuly shouts, "Mi wud be honored to join latz in dis meal!" Zag huries over
and sits down beside the Orc and starts asking him questions. After learning his name and why he was there, they proceed to share stories while laughing and eating. After Zag has had his fill, he stands up greeting the Orc farewell, "Da squeal wuz gud! Dankz for da meal, and gud luckz on yur travelz!"
