Disposition:

Vroreg must be considered quite self centered. He has an extremely high opinion of himself and would like to set himself as something like a king. He would like to gather a horde of other ogres and take over other groups including orcs and others As one might expect, he wants the finer things in life as he sees them. These include women to breed with, treasure, and those willing to be sycophants to him. As is common, he does have a taste for human flesh, in part developed when he served in Atlantis.

While he will not admit it, even to himself, he is something of a coward. He portrays himself as a tough warrior but is quite willing to cut and run if required. In addition, he does not really have an particular loyalties to anybody and would be quite willing to backstab someone in order to gain an advantage.

Even though he enjoys killing, Vroreg got tired of serving at the whim of the Splugorth and their minions. He was not considered particularly valuable, just another tattooed warrior and he never knew when they might expect him to perform a suicidal mission. As such, he decided that it would be best to break out on his own and make a name for himself.

Character History:

Vroreg doesn’t really know where he comes from. His first memories are of slave stock in Atlantis. It is unknown if he was bred on Atlantis or if he was captured. To be honest, it was never something he cared all that much about even then. All that was really important was surviving. Luckily he was also pretty strong and tough.

Among the captives he got something of a reputation of being mean and tough. One day several dozen adolescent ogres of around his age were put into an arena and expected to fight. By the end of the fight only a few survived with Vroreg being one of those few.

While the fight was meant for sport, it was also mean to find the strongest and toughest for additional training. The absolute best were selected to be either Maxi-Men or Maxi-Juicers. Those that did not do quite so well were selected to be the more common tattoo warrior classes. Vroreg was part of this latter group.

Even though not top tier, he still excelled in his training. He reveled in the power that tattoos gave him. All appearances were that he was a loyal minion of the Splugorth. In fact he was considered loyal enough that he was given an enchanted claymore. He was sent on missions to both England and the continent of Europe. On one of those he was able to capture an enchanted sword from a knight he killed. The high lord was impressed with him enough that he was allowed to

Still, he knew that those he served considered his disposable and would not hesitate to throw him away. Over the time he served them, there had been quite a number of close calls. In addition he realized that compared to many of the creatures of Atlantis, he was quite weak. Of course there was the simple fact that he was a slave as well. All of this fed a seething resentment.

He long considered how he might escape. It was not until he got sent to North America that he got his chance. The raiding unit he was with was ambushed. He saw that the unit was badly outnumbered as well. Seemed like the perfect opportunity. Vroreg attacked from behind the leader of his unit and then quickly ran in the confusion of the battle. Somehow he was able to escape.

Since then he has looked for other Ogres and has started to work on forming a kingdom of his own. In addition he has been kidnaping human women.
