Name: Varuk.

Age: 25.

Gender: Male.

Skills: Healing Factor: Although Varuk has no magical prowess he does still have one magical ability, regeneration. Varuk's battle wounds tend to heal rapidly compared to others. Broken bones will set after a few minutes, cuts will fade to scars and sometimes wounds that should have killed him will be healed enough for him to overcome his enemies and escape. Although at these times Varuk will not have been focused on his healing and that often leads to scarring. Yet he does not care about the marks of his flesh.

Race: Urgralgra.

Eyes: Crimson.

Home Village: Fläm Lake

Parents:Father: Azov (47). Mother: Harac (45).

Siblings: Brothers: Gundzar (19), Azôg(12). Sister: Caczar (17)

Character Personality: Varuk is proud of being an Urgal and is never ashamed even when other's look down upon him for what his race has done in the past. He has a great desire to learn as much about the other cultures of the lands as well as their idealisms towards battle so maybe, one day he can return to the Urgals and they will become the great warriors they once were. He is not as driven by blood lust as some others of his kin are but instead he fights for the adrenalin and honour of combat, he will stop in a fight if his enemy admits defeat and show mercy. Some have thought him weak for this, he is an outcast amongst the particularly vicious of his clan for such actions and they have tested themselves against him for it. The one thing Varuk likes better than to study battle and fighting, is to train his own skills. Many foolish Urgal's have rashly attacked Varuk and he has beaten them all. As he has travelled Varuk has gained a great ambition to be remembered as a great warrior by all races not just his own, and not as a barbaric creature by the others. Varuk is optimistic that his races will some day be side by side with the others of Alagaesia and he hopes that he will help to be one the few who brings it about.

Character History: Varuk was born on the final year his parents finished their hearth rug. And it was a sign to the people of the village that their's was a good match. His father was a good friend of the village chief and Varuk was always welcome in their house. Due to this he was able to learn from the elders about the men and elves and sometimes the dwarves. Yet he did not believe that the elders were telling him the truth. When he was 8, Varuk left home and soon found a human village. He wished to hear some of their tales from them and to see if what he had heard was correct. The men attacked him right on sight. Varuk had to injure the men to get away. And it was then that he discovered his wounds did not stay fresh for long. Varuk returned home quickly, his father did not question his where abouts and just took it that his son had gone to test his strength.

For many years after Varuk trained and travelled to the other tribes seeking their knowledge of fighting styles and battle wisdom. All the Elders of the tribes and clans gladly welcomed one who was so young and so keen to learn of their culture. And the men of the tribes were happy to have the chance to challenge the Crimson-Eyed Kull. Soon Varuk had travelled to almost all his people in the Spine and he had learnt all he could of them. At the age of twenty two Varuk returned home just in time for his younger brother to complete his passage of age and kill a cave bear. Varuk was over joyed at what had happened and accepted a mock challenge from his brother. When Varuk had won the fight the two brothers drank deeply and ate graciously. Varuk and his brother discussed the lands beyond the Spine and Varuk decided to see what the lands held for him as he was no longer the young Urgal who had been chased by farmer men. Since then Varuk has travelled the land of Alagaesia and although he finds few who will accept him, he is glad to meet those few and learn what they have taught him.

Weapons: Varuk's main weapons are two swords that he carries with him everywhere he goes. When time and events allow Varuk will use a two-handed, , single-edge blade which is usually strapped to his back by a dark brown leather scabbard. If Varuk does not have the ability to draw and fight with his two-handed sword, he will use his normal one-handed sword kept by his side in a similar brown scabbard as the one on his back.

Likes: Enjoys travelling and learning of the other cultures in the lands, testing their warriors and seeking their battle knowledge.

Dislikes: How his people have taken the idea of being a warrior and turned it into being a barbarian

Weakness/Fear: To die a dishonourable death and tarnish his clan's name.

Character's Physical Description: Varuk is, as every Urgal, large shouldered and deep-chested. He stands at just over eight foot, tall enough that he is considered Kull and it shows. He has an intimidating appearance but he will not attack without reason. Varuk's entire right arm, shoulder and ribs are covered in a tribal tattoo, the design is in a dark red ink that sticks out better on his skin that black. His eyes are an unusual shade of red instead of the normal yellow. They are blood red in colour which makes him stick out among his kin, and add to his menacing look.

Dreams for the Future: To bring honour to his clan and gain a brood mate that will bring him a strong family.

Reason for Dreams: Like all Urgals, Varuk cherishes the honour of a good battle and wishes to pass a good name and bearing onto his children.

Alignment/side: Varuk fights for honour and battle-glory. Wherever it is to be found
