Character: Templar Grok Facecruncha
Faction: Survivors

Fluff: Templar Grok Facecruncha's Waagh! has been steadily converting the local greenskin tribes around the isles of nippon. Everything was going according to plan until Da 'ummies of Alexander survivors arrived on Da isles, after a few skirmishes with them Grok decided they were not worth his time and prepared to move onto the next isles. That was when the mercenaries and raiders started to come, and attacks started against the Greentide. This was exactly what Grok had been waiting for a chance to bash some 'eads in Gork and Mork's name. With all the greenskins on the local isles converted or killed, Grok had to move on, and hoped that the battles would continue. The battles did for a while, but not as often or as tough, until one day they finally stopped. After a few days of boredom, gobbos and orcs started to leave the Waagh left and right. No matter of smashin skulls or threatening could stop them, they would sneak out at night when Grok and his templars rested.

After having a rather heated debate with a goblin chieftan (that ended with Grok choppin his head off) Grok realised what the problem was. He was an orc, his army was full of orcs and goblins, they needed combat, they wanted to loot, pillage, in the name of Gork and Mork. The place that had been the fullest of combat had been around dem survivas of Alexander. Upon this realization, Grok promptly turned what remained of his army around and fought his way right back to Alexander. Grok swore to Alexander and his survivors that as long as the best and 'ardest fights kept coming to them, his Green Crewsade would fight for them. After all what better way to celebrate da orc gods then to truly bash da biggest an' baddest boyz around, even if it meant helping some 'ummies in the process. All Hail da Green crewsade! And Da Army of Da GreenTide! :o

Character: Hekatina

Faction: Raiders

Fluff: At the end of the Great War of Cathay Hekatina had been left in command of the shattered remains of the great armoury, charged with overseeing a great ritual to invoke the powers of Nurgle to aid the Anointed. The ritual never took place, instead Hekatina and her forces disappeared. After a week in which no word had been heard from the sorceress Zaihai Nuer sent a company of riders to discover what had happened. They found only the dead bodies of the Nurgle mages who had been meant to perform the ritual their bodies arranged into huge runes calling upon Slaanesh and Khaine. Another discovery was to follow. The weapons which had been looted from the armoury were found to be rusted and bent as if they were simply scavenged from the bodies of the Cathayans who had given their lives to defend the armoury.

Character Name: Bravehead

Faction:Raiders

Fluff:

During the Typhoon prior to the war in Cathay an Orcish fleet was lost at sea. They then went on to form the Green Fang Waaaaaaagghh!! But about three ships were lost from the main fleet...

Two of those ships were destroyed by a "Giant Sea Squig". One however one survived, "Da Rusty Barnacle" was the ship's name,and the Captain's name was Bravehead. Bravehead was a goblin who had just come from the Highlands, for he was leading a WAAAGGHH!! against the forces of the Empire and the Dwarfs. After he had "'mashed de 'umies and stunties good" an old orc named "Dragonheart" told him about a life on the open seas, looting ships far and wide. Bravehead Started a life of piracy and then the typhoon came...

And so he is now here, lootin' da 'umies of Nippon. He will listen to reason though, for a price...

Fluff: An elder of the Iron Amber Ranger Clan, his ship was sent to the orient to scour the lands for those of his clan who went east with Alexander. Finding the remnants has proven a more arduous task and few have been found. But ever shall they persist till they can be brought home, and the grudges born against them dealt with.

Ok folks, I'm freezing the Raiders for a while. Current stats are Raiders = 8, Mercs = 5, Survivors = 4. Bravehead, we'll see how it goes. If you're happy in another faction, we can stick you there, but for now we'd like things to balance out a tad. We will probably open them up again but I don't want to repeat the imbalance of Battle of the Bosses.

Character: Gorax firespitter of da Fire Pass orcs

Faction: Mercs & Merchants

Fluff: From the fires of fire peak mountain, forged from blood and fire, Gorax Firespitter was greeted by Gork with a vision that would see the world put to flames. His body writhed and warped like the fires from which he was created. He fights for the highest bidder, waiting for the time in which Gorks plan can unfold, and the land will be burnt with the fire that pulses through Gorax's veins.

Looks like this campaign should be lots of fun! I think I'll have to watch from the sidelines this time though - school is looking quite busy over the next month and a bit!

Postby Unbrok Stonebeard on 13 Mar 2010

@ Templar, Sir Cai, Mathi, and Beithir: You four against the world? I think not!

Character: Shipmaster Unbrok Stonebeard
Faction: Survivors

In the years following the War of Cathay, Unbrok has found his vanquishing of the mighty Gohira and his last ditch assault to liberate Nippon to be increasingly hollow victories, as he has watched his people die and the cause he fought so long and hard for wax away. At first, he was content to use the Sutherlander to simply guard the bleak new home of Alexanders people, but as weeks turned to months, his feelings of resentment on the course of the war and toward the mistrustful people of Nippon have grown ever greater. He knows this somber melody, for the tune of those on the precipice of oblivion has been in the bones of the Dwarven people for centuries. He fought for Alexander to perhaps stave off the fate of his own people from these settlers; now, as he feels the world closing in around him, he has resolved to wreak vengeance upon those who have wronged the people of Alexander - at perhaps any cost...

So tempted to keep on waiting until you sign up and then join the same faction as you... would make me smile.

Might not be so bad as I could just read your posts and do the opposite. It would save a lot of thinking and planning on my part. :o
