Origin: Tamz'Kuna was the eldest daughter and only living child of a fierce orc warlord, whom commanded a traveling warband numbering five hundred; three hundred and seventy of those being professional warriors though none in the group were to be trifled with. The band was one of those which made orc human racial tensions all the higher, raiding peaceful towns, villages and eventually taking a small keep which of course called for great celebration on the part of the orc's. Looting the keep they drank and feasted on the supplies within, awakening in the morning to find a great host outside the walls; lead by King Cassius himself with a number close to a thousand and a half. King Cassius was to give no quarter, the band had harassed his people for long enough and they had called for their heads few amongst the group were innocent and all had shared in the plunder of those defeated. Tamz'Kuna's father wouldn't surrender however, nor would he hole up inside of the stone fortress; before Cassius's siege weapons could be readied the heavy oak drawbridge came steadily crashing down across the shallow moat which surrounded the tall walls. And several hundred battle crazed orcs rushed from the keep, crashing into the center of King Cassius's army, heavily outnumbered they were quickly encircled by the superior force; albeit they fought down to the last child. Including Tamz'Kuna whom was only eleven at the time already standing at five feet and two inches, and already a tough fighter in her own right not that she stood a chance against any real combatants; it was in a melee between her father and King Cassius in which her father lost his life run through the gut with cold steel. The battle at that point had more or less been ended, most of the band lay dead but Tamz' was still alive and angry, as Cassius slayed her father Tamz rushed the King managing to squirm past the two Kingsguard which defended him; a small dagger in hand she managed to drive it slightly into King Cassius from behind. The blade finding a gap in his plate just near the hip, the blade drawing blood and sticking firmly into his side; she quickly found herself knocked unconscious by the armored gauntlet of a Kingsguard.
They were moving to execute the child as no mercy was the call and of course she had attacked the King himself, but Cassius spared her life finding her courage and ability to survive a battle at such a young age admirable. And he took the child with him sparing her life to allow her to work as a servant, and in the King's castle she grew strong and quickly, standing at six foot one by the time she was sixteen. She was unhappy of course to be imprisoned to the people who slaughtered her friends and family, though as she grew she came to understand why it needed to be done; and what kind of man her father was in truth. Considering her rapid growth and adjustment to human custom King.Cassius began to have her trained, his best knights and master-of-arms teaching her to use all manner of weapon; her greatest talent laying with the sword quickly picking up on its use and handling. Able to face three soldiers together by seventeen, fighting in her first battle for Cassius by nineteen in a small skirmish with a rouge lord; as soon as they felled the wall of the treasonous Lord's keep Tamz' Kuna threw herself first roaring with fury into the breach. She killed many men fighting alongside Cassius's own soldiers, her ferocity and skill fast spreading amongst the men whom attended the battle; and so at the conclusion of the fighting King.Cassius knighted Tamz' Kuna. It wasn't until she reached the age of twenty one that she was selected to be one of the Kingsguard, an honor which every knight dreamt of but few ever reached; her actions in saving the King's own son from a stable fire prompting her introduction into the elite guard. Along with her steadily increasing and well renowned skills in combat.
Personality:Tamz'Kuna is an incredibly loyal and mild mannered orc, her upbringing with humans curving some of the more savage tendencies of her people.
Predisposition to the Magi:Rhaenyes has no opinion about the magi as a whole, having been helped and hurt by them same as non-magi.
Personality:Rhaenyes was always a skilled learner of the blade killing her first man in an actual battle at fifteen while observing with her lord father, her guard struck down by the knight she ended up besting; cutting his head clean from his body with a dueling broadsword. Since then her father brought the greatest knights and most skilled warriors from around the world to hone her skills, their House being quite wealthy as their land contained large gold and iron mines. This has lead Rhaenyes to often be snarky and overconfident in herself, her determination admirable along with her skills and great beauty; which has often resulted in many people disliking her in the past.
Notes: -Mithril dueling longsword, 3'4 and 2" across
<Snipped quote by Vas Khaleen> Man, I loved that show... The thing is and I understand Lily has complete apathy, the Seneca (Mingan) is a tribe that came in contact with European settlers a lot earlier than the Comanches or Apaches our characters would come in contact with in the story. Also, the Blackfoot (Iiniwa) living in Canada are living in harmony with the European settlers north of the border. They are accepted, not spurned as much against like the whites in the US. But as I stated, Lily doesn't give a shit.
Great song too! :)
Yeah she doesnt like any kind of indian, no trust or respect whatso ever.
If Mingan and Iiniwa stay we stay in the group. If we leave we go off on our own for a bit. Either is fine to me, but Mingan has no investment with the others in the RP yet. At first glance, they get on their horses and leave. What would you like to do?
What about the others? Does it matter if the two native bounty hunters leave?
I would say I'm interested in this, but I might I'm not entirely sure. Mostly because of Halvtand; I'm not sure I'm ready to get back with him ;) I'm kidding, of course. I'd love to do this.
I love Vikings. I have a degree in History (amongst other things, but lets not go into that). I'm Danish (though my heritage is muddy). I'm a great fan realism, so there's that, too. Oh, and I'm used to working with Halvtand, if that wasn't obvious.
Usually, I would say I could help you with the GMing part, but I'd rather not take on too much responsibility. I've only just returned from a impromptu hiatus, where I left everyone (including Halvtand (sorry, bro)) behind in a ditch. The only reason I have time to even be here is because I'm currently on leave from work, because of stress. I have no idea how long my doctor will be forcing me to sit around on my ass. ... That was a bit too honest, perhaps.
Jump on into the ooc, no one else is applying right now i promise to make it a fun experience at least.
