Personal history

Sludge the Silencer

 
Throughout his life, Skarde fought. He loved to fight, and from an early age, it’s been the one thing he truly knows. Being the bastard son of an Orc warlord and a slave girl, he learned at young age that you need to stand up for yourself. Skarde was bullied by the other orcs from his tribe over his “tainted” blood. “If we held him down and cut him,” one bully ponders, “will blood come out, or will it be sludge?” earning him that dubious nickname. At home, Skarde’s father outcasted to prepare his pure-blood younger brother Sigurd to take the mantle.
 
Day after day, the bullying and getting outnumbered took its tool to young Skarde, and on one fateful day forever changed him. Skarde decided to conceal a dagger one day to scare off the gang. The Orc bullies saw Skarde’s bluff and attacked him regardless, but it was a fatal mistake for one of the bullies. During the scuffle, Skarde dropped the dagger in the scrum, and while he scrambled towards the before getting pinned, Skarde quickly raised his hands to protect himself from the incoming attack while holding the dagger and closed his eyes. He felt the blood dripping down his face, but when he opened his eyes, he noticed it wasn’t his blood. Upon further inspection, the blood was from the bully on top of him. The death shocked the others, and Skarde quickly fled the scene.
 
Knowing the consequences, Skarde knew he had to leave the tribe, but his father had other intentions. Specators informed the warlord about the murder but heard Skarde was the aggressor. Given the crime of murdering a fellow tribes-man is punishable by death, the warlord relished the idea and let young Skarde know how much of a disappointment the bastard was to him. Before the warlord can pick up his mighty great axe, The Corpsemaker, however, Skarde plunged the dagger in his father's neck. In desperation, the half-orc gathered all he could take, including The Corpsemaker, and ran away before anyone catches him.
 
Years on the run surviving in the wild toughen the young bastard. Skarde’s travel ultimately led him to Ravnica. He stumbled upon one of the festivals The Cult of Radkos were throwing. After partaking one too many drinks, the half-orc got in a scuffle with one of the legendary pit fighters of Radkos and challenged Skarde to a fight. The bastard was a heavy underdog, but Skarde knew what his life could be if he pulled off the miracle. Down in the fight, the half-orc threw a desperation haymaker and connected. While looking down at his foe's unconscious body, Skarde's win caught the eye of the promotor and wanted the half-orc to be his top prizefighter. “What’s your name kid,” the eager promoter asked. Skarde, cleaning up after the fight, reminded him of that day back in the tribe. For years, the bastard son felt he didn’t belong because of the purity of the blood, but realized to fulfill his true destiny, he needed to seize it for himself, so he decided to call himself the same name that used to bring him great shame and will use it to silence all who oppose him. “Sludge . . . Sludge the silencer.”
