Backstory

Hunter of Orcs

Long are the memories of those who have lost. Longer still are those who have lost everything.
 

You still remember vividly the day of the raid. The day your father and mother were taken from you. The howls of the Orcs and goblins chilling you to the bone as you hid, cowering in the space between the hearth and the grate.

You watched as they tore your father apart and subjected your mother to unspeakable acts.

You screamed when they found you and dragged you out from where you hid, cowering.

Then the snarls of rage and screams of pain. The animal sounds of foul creatures being slaughtered. The arms of a cloaked, hooded man wrapping around you, lifting you, carrying you away from that living hell.

~oOo~

Thammegil blinked awake. He slept lightly these days. Especially when he was on the hunt. But these times bought the nightmare back whenever he closed his eyes. The dreams of the day when his family was torn from him and he became one with the rangers.
 

Not for him, the illustrious history of the Kings of Gondor, or a blood link to Elendil. For him, he was a foundling. Adopted into the ranks of the Protectors of the North through necessity more than aught else. With no birthright to call his own, he'd had to fight for everything. Fighting was all he knew now.
 

But the fight is a good fight. He fought so that no others should have to go through the pain and loss he'd had to endure. His solemn vow to inspire and bring hope where there is none. To eradicate the foul spawn of Mordor from Eriador - and beyond if necessary. To be a beacon of hope in the darkness for all Men - regardless of their lineage.
 

Still ... he had to focus. He was on the hunt. Murmuring softly to his companions, he motioned into the valley below their vantage point amongst the trees - a group of some ten Orcs had appeared - easy pickings for his small crew and yet more food for his thirsting blade.

Time to get to work ...
