Name: Harkara Berehrker
(Editor's note: I am not sure if this name is Ork enough. Care to give me few examples of generic Ork names?)
Age: 32
Sex: Female
Race: Orc
Description:
Harkara is a tall and muscular adventurer, talented in the ways of swinging her claymore around while shouting angry words with angry eyes and talking in more calm manner. She wears a splint armor* full set to cover her body up as she wears a frog mouth helmet to cover her face from harm. To differentiate herself from the masses she had her family's sigil of starting and ending letters 'B' and 'R' carved in bolded unto her differing sides of her helmet, but due to miscommunication the letter R is on the left side and B on the left side, so when reading them it is ''
RB''.
Homeland: The realm of King Broll
Biography:
Harkara is an orc born to a family of orcs that had been blessed with the status reminiscient of that of nobles estate in other civilizations, with it having recieved its last name during the reign of King Brull. As per tradition of a noble family Harkara and others of her family took a certain degree of pride in learning foreign things such as languages, writing and reading. Among the common folk, and to the foreigners, it could be seen that Behrkrer family has abandoned the orc traditions and embraced the more feudal and more human traditions into their family.
Harkara, as per new inheritance reforms that have come in the King Brull's realm, was someone that couldn't inherit anything from her parents. She was born as the third child in the family, with first one inheriting vast majority of parents' property and second child inheriting a small sum. While her parents were still alive and she was a youngling she felt slight admiration towards the stories of old orcs, which, combined with her more formal and diplomacy-based education up until the age of 12, gave her the ambition to desire to become a legend among the orcs. If she wanted to make herself a good diplomat - as her parents would have wanted - she would need to have some reputation, and best way for an orc is to gain a reputation is through combat and warfare. War and combat are most common sources for a mortal orc to become immortalized through stories, just like King Brull has before his return. This motivated Harkara to get herself an education in the field of combat, strategy and what else. Harkara's inability to inherit her parents' property may have also played a role in it all.
Once she reached the age of 17 she, after some persuasion to her parents, managed to make her way into joining the Order of the World Tree. Her initial years were somewhat struggle-some, what with her biggest issues rising from fellow members of her race that did not have same form of formal education as she started with and her attempts at differentiating herself from the rabble. After few years of successful grunt work she managed to rise up to a squire and, later on, she started a life of an Indie.
As an Indie Harkara has made steady success in her career, surviving in the differing jobs that she was granted, with the term fitting her the most propably being an adventurer, as she aims for prestige and becoming a reputable being. She has been an Indie for the last four years, with dreams of achieving the status of a legend ever so present in her stubborn life. During this time she has managed to use her gained wealth to custom design herself piece by piece an armor fitting of a noble such as her.
Motivations:
W-.. This is awkward. I already mentioned her motivations in the biography. Whoop de doo.
Harkara wants to become a legend, simple as that. She dreams of becoming a person that people will remember long past her own death, as that seems like a form of immortality that she can achieve. She may enjoy a little bit of wealth and worldly pleasures, but her main desire is to become famous and somebody in the world stage, experiencing the life of the so called big guys that decide the fate and destiny of the world. To her, after all, glorious life and death are best rewards one can get.
Strengths (list at most 2)
Harkara's strength is her natural strength that all orcs possess, easily making her among one of the stronger and more enduring warriors. What more an orc's strength and endurance is truly a deadly asset when mixed with armor, as their armorhinders them less with their weight.
Harkara is rather talented in the arts of diplomacy, even if it is not her main focus. Her years spent training in the arts of diplomacy and manners as a good noble gave her the ability to talk suavely and in a manner that can help in diplomatic intercourse.
TL;DR She is a switch between combat and diplomacy, somewhat adequate in both arts.
Weaknesses (list at least 2)
Harkara's ego and ambition are both a strength and also a weakness. While it motivates her and helps her go forward in her life and gives her direction, it can create unnecessary issues with people that do not like her boasting of herself.
(Editor's note: I am not sure about this weakness. If you think it is not big enough of a weakness then we can change it.)
As is typical of a blueblooded individual Harkara is somewhat elitistic, believing that nobility are meant to be above the common folk as the ''most organic estate of the realm''. Her usage of the word ''organic'' is rather liberal due to her initial misunderstanding of what it meant and that meaning having enrooted in her. She looks down upon the non-nobility, but she views non-orc common folk ''slightly more couth than the orc rabble.'' Harkara's differentiation from the common folk of both orcs and other species can come as a problem.
* I am unsure which one the following armor is. Some pictures of it call it splint armor and other pictures call it scaled armor. Also, pics for what I am inspired by for the armor. One adjustment from this picture: There is some heavy cloth underneath the armor, of course, so no fully unprotected armpits
Although...Armor only is more of an orc thing and the character may seem too human if they have cloth underneath...(Funny enough I learned that clothes are actually good defence against slash attacks. Gambeson is interesting.)

Also, pic of the helm, but imagine it all be monotonous steel and slightly more crude.
