Personal history
Orrin-47, as his name suggests, is the 47th EXO to be built from that template. He is unaware if any other examples of his template have survived the Collapse and ensuing millennia.
His story starts roughly one-hundred and fifty years ago when he was working as a caravan owner running shipping between the core of the Ascendancy and what would become Grendel on the peninsula of the same name. His caravan fell under attack by raiders, and while he and most of his companions survived, his requests for aid and support from Ascendancy officials were rebuffed. After being attacked again on the return trip, and having his caravan decimated in the attack, Orrin-47 hunted down the assailants. Upon reaching their camp, he found that it was the same Ascendancy force that he had appealed to for protection. When he realized this, Orrin, drawing upon skills that he didn't know that he had, systematically killed the fifteen murderous Ascendancy guardsmen the had beset upon his caravan and disappeared amongst the wilds of the Ascendancy.
There he drifted for a few decades, taking his blood tax on the Ascendancy's soldiers and officials. This came to a halt when two things happened. One, he found a first-hand account made with excruciating detail about the events leading up to the Collapse which completely altered the way he viewed the world and showed him how to focus his will to protect others. Two, he was accepted in the Warmage College after running across a band of where he was trained in the ways of Castle's Marines. From there he was hired out on various tasks until the Grendel peninsula successfully seceded from the Ascendancy and founded its own country.
He then made his way into the country to help with repelling the Ascendancy's attempts to regain control. He fell in with a local leader, Erso Kila, and followed her as a bodyguard for twenty years until he was assigned to guide the party when they were formed in Azlanti.
