[h3][color=ff0000]Ogre Ren[/color][/h3] [color=ff0000] A New Venture/// Morning // Day 6[/color] [hr][@Jangel13][@ReusableSword][@demonspade64] Once again, Ren found himself in a forge, this time however, he was not in a crucible; but standing behind the inconceivable form of the Forgefather. As if caught in a fit of mad inspiriation, the god furiously hammered away at something. Though he could not see what his god was working on, he could however, see the rest of the forge. Enamored by the incredible design of Gatoven's workshop, Ren drank in every detail; forever etching it into his mind. As he looked once more to Gatoven, he would find that the steel god was nowhere to be seen; the world around him fading into darkness, save for glowing piece of steel atop the anvil. The moment Ren reached for it-- the mass of metal struck out! The blob twisted and turned, devouring his left arm as it's tendrils dug themselves into his body. Frozen in awe, the hobgoblin watched the metal absorb his arm before invading his body. Ren awoke in a flash, in shock of his new body, and amazed at the change in both his sword, as well as his wolf. Truly, no words could describe the gratitude he felt for receiving the blessing of the steel god. Slowly he rose to his feet, making himself a somewhat large fire. Taking the remaining pelts from the pack he had hunted the day before, Ren began the process of tanning the tanning hides using the fire, his sword, and smoldering coals. When he was finished, he had made a hood from the Alpha and a loincloth from the Rest. As the Ogre donned his new attire, he was struck with an idea of how to thank his god! Gently rubbing his wolf's head, he motioned for it to follow him as he trudged over to the stone church; surely the church's library could offer the knowledge he required! As he approached the door to the church, he shared what Troll meat he had left with his companion; satiating any hunger the two might have. However, whether or not the others inside might see him as a threat, remained to be seen..... Slowly, Ren opened the church's tiny door as he hunched to fit through it's frame. As he passed into the main room of the church, Ren could once again stand, glancing around the room, he saw Luz, some undead looking creature that was probably Gird, and Grandpa Goblin. Without a word, he rested his massive blade against the wall next to the door as he invited his wolf in. Making sure that his wolf didn't mistake the others for prey, Ren took his wolf to the church's library, and instructed it to lie down. Slowly and carefully, Ren began browsing the Church's collection of books, looking for anything that he may have seen in his dream of Gatoven's forge.

However, drawing all the strength of a certain dead body or their parts will cause it to disintegrate into dust.
