Stingtooth

The Trainer

Stingtooth is a grizzled old Orc who was once a mighty warrior and captain of the Royal Guard. Stingtooth's eyesight is fading now, as is his hearing, but his limbs are still strong, and he can still wrestle nearly any Orc in the city to the ground. The job of trainer allows him to use his skills and impart his knowledge, and also lets him stay useful. He has a stout, oil cloth-covered strongbox that he keeps off to one side of the training ground, and he often sits atop it while directing the warriors through their exercises. Inside the chest are his clothes, his bedroll, and his weapons. Stingtooth takes his meals in the barracks with the other warriors, but he always sleeps by the bonfire, both to tend it and because the warmth is soothing to his old bones.
Old Stingtooth is short-tempered and demanding, perfect for a military trainer. He cannot abide weakness (his own or anyone else's) and he hates incompetence. He will make a warrior repeat the same drill for days on end, until the Orc either drops or gets it right. And if he drops, Stingtooth will wake him back up and make him start all over again. Stingtooth still wears his full kit and gear every day, refusing adamantly to give in to old age.
