Orrin

Description
A young half orc with thick black hair pulled into a top bun. The older of the two brothers is imposing, tall and broad.

Orrin is a man without subtleties. His laugh is brash, contempt is palpable, and his loyalty is ironclad.

Background
Clayton Blackmore married twice; once for money and once for comfort.

The orcs of clan Redeye came through the town of Bressin quite often. The town was too poor to turn down traders of any kind, even orcish raiders. One night the clan was quite worked up from a very successful raid. Clayton was at the bar that night, reveling with the orcs. That was when he met Thorna. She was a fierce warrior for the clan, and with enough alcohol, Clayton thought that her half orc features could almost be attractive.

Thorna, drunk and flush with confidence and cash made Clayton an offer that he couldn't refuse. He accepted her proposal for marriage in exchange for a 100 gold. There were rules, but he was fine with them: never leave Bressin, bear her a son, and always be hers. No problem.

The first couple of months were easy. The money meant that Clayton could expand his business, improve his shop, hire a couple helpers. Thorna's constant raiding meant the there was always some sort of money coming in - even when business was bad. Most of all, Thorna was rarely home. Things were going great until Thorna got pregnant. She never went out on raids anymore and stayed in constantly criticizing Clayton. It's also when Clayton started becoming the butt of everyone's jokes. The couple of years were miserable.

When Orrin was born, things started to level out. Thorna spent her time with the child, constantly toughening him as she could while Clayton simply had to deal with the Bressin's ridicule.
