Vael Deadhammer
The Bastard Orc Prince Vael Deadhammer
Half Orc Fighter
The bastard son of an orc King born to a elf woman. He grew up in an elven seafaring society, but found little love among the elves. They didn't accept him because of his father, calling him an abomination and a half breed.
At age 13 his mother was killed when an orc raiding party attacked his village. Vael throttled the culprit and took his place on the orc ship, deciding to abandon the elven way of life. His future was with the orcs, and eventuality, next to his father, the orc king.
He became very strong indeed growing up on the sea, raiding and plundering, sailing through rough weather, battles on land and at sea. Through many battles Vael proved himself to be a great warrior, and over the years he quickly became famous among the elf raiders and orc clans for his prowess in battle.
Now, however, the bastard prince Vael is ready to prove himself and meet his father, the orc king.
He feels justified in all of his actions, confident that all those he encounters should show him the respect he deserves.
His main goals in life are to become the most famous half orc alive, a legendary warrior, and one day take his father's place as King of the orcs.
Vael takes pride in his title, the Bastard Orc Prince. He has turned his back on his elven heritage, they spat on him for what he was, while among the orcs he gained a reputation for his deeds, not for his elven upbringing.
Vael's older elven half brother, Vali, set out on a voyage 10 years ago and hasn't been heard from since. He still holds love for his brother Vali, as he was the only elf other than his mother who ever treated him as an equal. Vael hopes to find Vali in his travels.
