Ragmesz

Ragmesz is an Ulteran ex-soldier turned monster hunter. He stands 6' tall with black/grey hair and grey stubble. He is a recovering alcoholic and suffers PTSD from a vicious attack during his military career.

Despite his age it's clear he is still in good shape, and appears muscular.

Personality
Ragmesz values order, but not blind obedience. He will obey rules that seem sensible enough, and respects authority - but if he feels he has been insulted or wronged he is not afraid to speak his mind.

Like many orcs Ragmesz hears the voice of Gruumsh, usually when he is experiencing strong emotions. As a Half-Orc it is not as powerful, and he finds it easy to control with menial tasks, such as sharpening his blade or polishing his shield. If he experiences a particularly strong outburst he may occasionally be overwhelmed by the rage, but is very quick to regain control.

Biography
Ragmesz was born and raised in an Ulteran village to an orc father and human mother and grew up in a small human settlement. His childhood was ordinary, being taught human culture by his mother and orcish heritage by his father.

At the age of eighteen the Mark of Gruumsh began to rear its ugly head. Being a well adjusted boy he did not take kindly to such intrusive thoughts, especially evil ones, and joined the military on advice from his father. An institute of discipline, strict training and brotherhood was an ideal place to gain control and overcome Gruumsh's influence.

Eight years into service, deep in a largely uncharted forest with his troop, Ragmesz encountered a monster that would change his life forever. This beast attacked the camp, slaughtered all the soldiers, and left Ragmesz weak and dying.

Ragmesz has not shared what happened to him after the attack.
