Krusk grew up in the south of the waste lands in a small
cave that was occupied by himself, his Father (Orkan), his Mother
(Yuri) and his older brother (Fang). Three weeks after his birth
his mother Yuri went off to a near by water hole to collect
that nights dinner when a large "Rat Like" creature came out from behind
a bush and bit her on the neck. Krusk's mother died on the way back to the
cave. After the traumatic period of his mothers death Krusk's father Orkan
started to teach him in the ways of the all mighty Orc god Gruumsh.While Krusk's brother
trained him to be a capable ranger and hunter. After about a year Fang left to attain
an important meeting concerning the battle in which he was to be fighting elves for
the rights to own De'augers fort and land. When he returned a week later he found that
Orkan was threatening to kill Krusk for misbehaving. Fang didn't take to kindly to this
and hit Orkan across the head with the hilt of his dagger knocking Orkan unconscious.
After doing this he picked Krusk up off the ground gathered some basic items and headed
to a small Orc campsite about 60 leads away from the cave. From there his brother furthered
Krusk's training in preparation for the up coming war.
Six months had passed by the time they were called on to take the ranks in the
battle field. By this time Krusk was proficient with his long bow and battle axe and ready
to fight for what was rightfully property of the Orc community in the Known World.
About 2 days into combat Krusk was hit in the right shoulder with an arrow his brother
removed the arrow and moved krusk to an area away from the ongoing combat. Fang to get out
a medical substance to help speed up the healing process on Krusk's shoulder. When a
speeding crossbow bolt jabbed into Fang's throat. Krusk looked round to see what the
whistling noise was and noticed two Elven warriors riding away with cross bows
and Fang on the ground beside him. Krusk buried Fang under a near by Oak tree and walked
back slowly to his former home in the caves. When Krusk got home he looked in the corner
where his father had slept and he saw a crossbow and a puddle of blood on the the bed he
followed the trail of blood to where it stopped about 15 feet from the entrance of the
cave. There he found two horses trails leading out to the forest north of the cave.
Krusk spent 2 years walking around in the woods Hunting and stalking Elves to avenge his
brothers death and to find his lost father. Krusk came across a dungeon one morning where he
thought there could be treasure or elves to hunt so he proceeded down the the stair wells.
When he got down there he heard someone approaching so he quickly ducked in side a small
room. When he thought that the intruders had passed he stood up and turned around he noticed
that there were a lot of precious items and gold in the room. So he picked up a couple
of handfuls of goods and left the room.Ten minutes later he saw 6 Orks walking towards him
as they got closer to him he noticed that they were carrying hallberds and spears Krusk
called out to them and they turned to face him. One of the Orks lowered his hallberd and
charged towards Krusk. He thought quickly and moved to the side reaching to draw his
Battle Axe. As the charging Ork came closer to him he took a swing at the Ork and chopped
his body in two. The other Orks Disappointed with their friends attempt started to charge
at Krusk. Krusk started to run as fast as he could in the other direction when suddenly he
ran into an adventuring party of travelers. They reached for their weapons but Krusk pleaded
them to spare him. Soon after the travelers accepted him into their party.
After a while the party consisting of Grim (Dwarven Palladin)Garganuthor (Illithid Mage)
Thor (Ogre Barbarian) Stardrifter (Lizardman Cleric) Macros(Half Fiend fighter)
Zenkor (Githyanki Fighter)Rusko (Halfling Rouge) and Chrixion (Centaur Cleric of Hextor )
started to feel comfortable having an Orc around. After about 3 weeks of traveling around
the party was awoken from a large thumping sound. Then 2 massive Minitors Came charging down
the corridor one of them slammed Thor up against a wall. Krusk moved over to the Minitor
holding Thor up. He put his hand on the horn of the Minitor and took a violent slash at its
neck but missed. Countering that the Minitor pulled its horn out of Thor stood up on its hind
legs and hurled Krusk against a wall 30 feet away. As Krusk stood up the Minitor charging
at full speed hurteled its horn into Krusk's stomach. Krusk never stood up after that. His
injuries were to great to heal. Unfortunately Krusk was not given a proper burial but he did serve
as a weapon for Thor for a while.
