[wushootaki]

Greetings fellow MMO-Champion...eers?

This thread will be used to introduce the character you will be playing come Catacylsm (Restricted to the New Races Only).

Please include Name, Physical Description, and a short biography. I am interested to see what others have come up with for their characters.

I will personally be making a goblin.

[wushootaki]

Name: "Dirt" Grelpkin

Race: Goblin

Hometown: Bilgewater Port

Physical Description
Dirt is your average sized goblin, perhaps leaning a bit more on the scrawny side. A smile shows off sharp yellow teeth, filed sharper than necessary due to a certain affinity towards biting things. Bright yellow eyes are hidden behind a pair of tinker goggles, his skin often splotched with oil. He wears a pair of dirty dark tan overalls, made out of a thick leather type material. Around his waist is a thick belt loaded with wrenches, screwdrivers, hammers, and other assorted tools. A pair of thick boots adorn his large feet, covered in dried mud and dirt from having not been cleaned for ages. His hands are rough and leathery, covered in callouses from constantly working on experiments. A large scar covers his right cheek, a leftover from a failed experiment where a piece of shrapnel had cut him from a potentially life-ending explosion. When his goggles are off, they reside atop his bald head. You can easily see the insane look those yellow eyes hold.

Background

After escaping the destruction of Kezan, "Dirt" was left without family or relatives. They had all fallen to the misfortune of the isle, brought on by Deathwing's destructive entry into Azeroth. Found by other goblins, "Dirt" was taken in by a working class family. He was given the name "Dirt" because when he was found, he was covered in dirt drawing pictures into it with a stick. He was still rather young. Growing up in Bilgewater Port in Azshara, "Dirt" became the apprentice to one of several engineers that worked in the town. Through his work, he learned how to become quite resourceful with engineering, and learned that if you can't solve something...throw rockets at it until it works. Unfortunately, one failed experiment left him with a rather nasty scar on his face that tends to serve as reminder should he ever lose himself to moments of natural goblin insanity.
When "Dirt" wasn't working for at his apprenticeship, he was often busy designing guns. He had found that he rather enjoyed the idea of crafting something that allowed you to project chunks of metal into your enemies, perhaps brought on by his own experience with the piece of shrapnel. He spent time honing his skills with ranged weapons, always trying to find a way to make the guns more powerful or accurate. It was only a matter of time before he learned the path of the hunters.
Reaching a crossroads in his life, "Dirt" now had to decide what he wanted to do. Would he stay at his apprenticeship and become another engineer of Bilgewater Port? Or would he follow his newfound hobby of artillery. After careful deliberation, he decided to seek out other hunters and learn their methods. He would combine the two, using a combination of the skills of the hunter and the smarts of engineering to become a truly deadly force that would be able to aid the Horde in their battles.
Because after all, what's worse than a long-ranged fighter? A long-ranged fighter with a portable bomb dispenser, land mines, super scopes, rocket launchers, sapper charges, flame throwers, and the genius mind of a lunatic.

[Malguranse]

Name: Malguranse Cropfielder

Race:Worgen

Hometown: A small farm in Gilneas

Physical description:

A Tall(Around 6.3 Feet), Stong,Dirt covered Man who has Dark Overalls and a Sturdy pitchfork.


Background:

Malguranse came from a small quiet Farmers Family in Western Gilneas. He had been farming one day when he saw something move in the Apple Orchard. so as Curiosity won over, he went to see what it was. Which was his mistake,because what was in the Orchard found him before he found it and of course it was a Worgen of Arugal. The second mistake Malguranse made was attacking the beast and not running, for by doing that he was bitten and had Succumbed to the curse of the worgen. when he awoke he was in a chamber and fellow gilneans were trying to cure the curse. After they were sucessfull, Malguranse returned home to find that his family had been killed by the worgen. So Malguranse vowed that he would travel to Shadowfang keep and slaughter the worgen who did this. But What Malguranse did not know was that his hold on his humanity was drawing to an end........

[Grimora88]

{b]Name[/b]: Achatus Mcdunnan

Race: Former Gilnean woodsman turned Worgen.

Hometown: Born and raised in Duskhaven.

Background: Achatus was a simple woodsman. Never brought harm to himself or others, and provided his town with the finest fireplace wood and even felled some trees on the side for the carpenters. He had a faithful mastiff named Stills, since the old mutt hardly ever moved except to chase squirrels and rabbits. One night, as he was finishing up, he heard a strange growl come from the thick woods. Stills got up and growled, the fur on his neck standing up which meant maybe it was a bear. Rumors had said strange creatures had been spotted, but Achatus had killed his share of bears and foxes, so he thought nothing of it. Picking up his last bundle, he made his way back to his house. A loud roar was heard and sharp needles melted into the skin of his back and then were ripped out, taking his breath away. The creature was heavy as it used him as a platform to jump on his roof and back into the woods around them.

Present: He is a steadfast Priest, trained in the Light's ways and also it's darkest secrets. He prays every day for his family and Stills, who's grave is back in Gilneas along with so many others who fought off the Feral Worgen and the Forsaken.
