Picture/Description:Mordrag's appearance closely mirrors his wild personality. His dirt brown hair hangs to his shoulders, jutting in all directions and meeting his chest-length beard. Both unwashed, his hair and beard might contain bits of food from any time in the past week. Mordrag is a towering hulk of a man with thick, corded muscles from years of fighting mingling with layers of fat from years of drinking and eating. He has strong features with a powerful jawline and bushy eyebrows set in a heavy, furrowed brow. His blue eyes contrast brightly with his tanned and sun weathered skin. Worn over his broad shoulders is a sleeveless burgundy vest, buttoned only halfway up to reveal abundant black chest hair. His black pants have a multitude of pockets attached or sewn in, each filled with different objects. Black leather boots and white cloth wrappings around his wrists finish of his daily outfit. When ready for battle, Mordrag's adds a black, hardleather single pauldron with an attached canvas torso covering to his attire.
Personality:Mordrag is truly one of a kind. Rude, explosive, and constantly joking, his strong personality certainly makes an impression. He is easy to make either a friend of an enemy of. Mordrag is both a fighter and a lover, the former making his gold, the latter losing it.
The bear of the man has a few odd quirks. In his belongings, one will find more ridiculous trinkets than anything of actual value. Whether stolen, bartered for, or looted off of a fallen foe, random items seem to continue to make their way into Mordrag's possession. In addition to his item collection, the big man prides himself on his quick judgement of others. These judgements weren't always right, but boy were they made quickly.
History:Born in the center of a nomadic barbarian tribe to a single mother, Mordrag never knew his father. Because he was always larger than the other children, Mordrag was forced to be a warrior from an early age, beating down every other boy who stepped up and tried to prove their strength against 'the big one.' These small victories fed continuously into the man's confidence, giving him boisterous and hedonistic tendencies. Not the most intelligent, even of his barbarian tribe, the big man grew into the only role he could find, as the muscle for smarter, smaller men.
After working security for a few years for a small satellite of a powerful spicing company, the Yellow Traders, Mordrag caught the eye of labormaster who brought him back to the company's center of operations. Upon his arrival, the bear of a man discovered that the three barons with disputed sovereignty over this area had decided to work together to bring down the Yellow Traders after feeling threatened by their quickly growing influence. A combination of warehouse raids and forced boycotts – through intimidation, bribery and blackmail – brought about the fall of the great spicing company, and subsequently, Mordrag's unemployment. Mordrag then went on to wander the world, acquiring companions in his quest for riches and earthly enjoyment. Because of their experience, the group were often employed; however, taverns and brothels frequently saw them goldless.
It isn't clear how Mordrag came to find his way into the Rogues' Castle, but he has been the undisputed leader of The Bleeding Hearts and the Hunters for over a decade. He is a confident, charismatic and brutal leader, well-loved by friends and respected by all.
Combat Proficiency:Just like his outward appearance, Mordrag's fighting style mimics that of a large bear. He utilized his massive size to overwhelm his opponents, crushing or stabbing them from distance with the long reach of his arms and polearm together. Up close, the large man's thunderous punches are accentuated by the studded rings hidden under his hand wrappings. He is not the quickest or the most agile, so he is used to receiving more blows than he delivers; however, the man is able to survive by always making sure to hit much harder when his opportunity arises. Though he is inventive in no other way, Mordrag has an affinity for dealing pain.
Magical Abilities:Is brute strength and a lack of planning a magical ability? No? Then N/A
Skills:Everything from Bashing Skulls to Smashing Skulls.
Equipment:Mordrag has a tendency to collect a random variety of objects in his many pockets from rocks to jewelry to food items. He is fascinated by each item in his collection be it rare or mundane. Strapped to his back is a specialized (or improvised) marteau de lucerne – long polearm shaft ending in a spiked, double sided meat hammer with an extended spike on top. Underneath each of his hand wrappings are a couple of two-fingered rings, each equipped with a large, square stud to aid in his 'persuasiveness.'
Other:N/A
