{NAME}
Kojo

{ALIASES}
Just Kojo so far. But it's remarkable how often people mispronounce his name like "gods all lookit the size of you".

{AGE}
18 - Which translates to somewhere in his 20's for orc-kind.

{GENDER, SEXUALITY}
Male.
Goooood question on sexuality. He's super shy about it. Lots of sputtering and 'oh no I think that calf is in trouble be back later, possibly never'.

{SPECIES/ETHNICITY}
Orc - from the Thunderblack Mountain Tribe

{HEIGHT/BUILD}
7'2", BIG.

{OCCUPATION}
Cattle herder

{RESIDENCE}
Varies! He spends half of the year down in the Serha Plains, and the other half up in the safety of the Terrin Mountains.

{PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION}
Kojo is tall, monstrously so, and thick as a tree trunk. Made almost entirely of muscle, he easily dwarfs most non-orcs, and could probably lift them with one hand. He wears his dark hair long and in multiple braids and twists, as is customary for his people, and over his green-grey skin there are a series of carefully laid scars. His eyes are a robin's egg blue, in stark contrast to the other earthier tones that make him up.

{PERSONALITY}
Kojo is in it for the fun of it. Laid back almost to the point of seeming irresponsible, he would much rather try to enjoy himself than over-think things. This bothers the life out of his father, who had hoped Kojo might turn out to be future chieftain material, but more and more it seems like that's just not in the cards. Which is fine by Kojo, really, who much prefers the freedom of driving cattle rather than leading his people.

Fun Facts!:
  • One of the few of his tribe who speaks the common trader's tongue, and has started piecing together a few of the local Adelan tribal languages.
  • Is totally the sort to nurse tiny animals back to health. The faces he gets from his tribe for this are legendary.
  • Loves tattoos: he sees them here and there when they make contact with traders, and is always enamored of how pretty some of them can be.
  • Hot spring baths are the BEST.

{SPECIAL ABILITIES}
He's super strong. Years of wrangling gigantic cattle tends to have that effect. Biceps for days.
Another side effect of wrangling is that he's really handy with rope and lassos.

{RELATIONSHIPS}
His father, the chieftain, who has no name because I'm lazy like that.
Paja, his best friend and often the one who has to deal with his bullshit.

{HISTORY}
Born the only child to the chieftain of his tribe, his father held out high hopes for him. However, as Kojo grew up, it became more and more apparent that he had very little interest in a leadership position, far more taken with the lifestyle of the orcs who drove their cattle. Seeing as these beasts were easily approaching six feet at the shoulders, this was certainly not idle work, and so it was permissible enough, even if his father was disappointed. Kojo fell in love with the plains the first time he saw them, and once that happened, there was no turning back for him.
