Sir

Orc Death Knight in Stone Armor



Intro

The Crypt


Biography

Before the demons invaded, the orcs were among the contenders for the title of the menace of the civilized world. Many argued whether the evil is in their nature, or whether it's just due to their upbringing. After they've found an orcish cub during one of their quests, a group of adventurers decided to put that thesis to a test.

They raised him as one of their own, teaching him their skills, and more importantly, ideals. The lad took to it swimmingly. There was still a hint of the natural savagery inside him, but it seemed to be directed towards the good. The tales of chivalry lived in his spirit so strongly, that when his Naming Day came, he requested to be called "Sir".

He looked forward to going adventuring like his mentors, but before that, fearing the rare glimpses of violence they've seen in him, the party cleric decided to take him to an oracle. The words of the prophecy filled their heart with both joy and sadness. It was said that he'll deal a great blow to the enemies of mortalkind, but will not live to see their fall.

Then the Great Demonic War came. His head filled with the words of the oracle, Sir went to fight in it together with his mentors.

And then he fell in the first battle. The Red Moon Night was a massacre. Whole armies decimated in an ambush which would go on to be called one of the Demon Lord's greatest stratagems. Sir's story was cut short. The prophecy left unfulfilled. He hasn't achieved anything. Years of training wasted.

His mentors were among the survivors, and they brought their pupil's remains back home, before they set out to war again. Next time, it was one of them that was buried. Then another. Then one more. And then there were none.

But the destiny isn't easy to cheat, and now Sir is among those who rose again. A revenant came to life, seeking to get back the glory that he failed to achieve in his first life.


Personality

Sir is simple-minded. He's gregarious and straightforward. He doesn't hide what's on his mind. The lack of lips makes it difficult for him to speak, but luckily, he was never big on using fancy words, so he's still understandable. He likes simple jokes.

Due to his orcish blood, Sir's impetuous and prone to violence, but he's trained well enough to direct it towards his enemies, and if that's not an option, then at least towards the inanimate objects.

Cheated out of his promised glory, he now seeks it in this life. Achieving deeds worthy of his mentors is his main purpose in this unlife.


Abilities

Sir's a knight. Clad in impossibly heavy armour, and wielding a similarly unwieldy blade, he's a juggernaut on the battlefield, using his natural power and brutality to overwhelm his opponents.

Yet, calling him a simple brute would be foolish, and for his enemies, likely fatal. His martial skill is undeniable. Despite the weight he carries, his movements are fluid, and his strikes precise.

His new undead state made him even more terrifying of a combatant. His durability taken even higher, and his blows filled with the entropic magic. However, his abilities are greatly diminished when the sun is up, and his being is in the hands of another, the powers no longer quite his own. 


Soul-bond

Led by the call of destiny, even if they didn't quite know it, they entered the crypt where Sir rested in his deathly slumbered, and they awoke him from it when they lifted the pendant from his grave.

Now he's bound to them, looking up to them as the one who will lead him into the battle where he'll win his promised glory. Not only do they wield control over his powers, but the pendant they kept is in fact Sir's phylactery.
