Personal history

A Nomad thrust into this age from long ago. He has survived because of his might, his brilliance, and his ruthlessness. When being sent to retrieve an artifact for the criminal mastermind, Gog-ma-gogg, from a wizard, someone dear to him lost their life. Upon returning with the trinket, Korgoth was rewarded and then wandered the world aimlessly.   Korgoth would find himself, at a long forgotten temple. Broken down, abandoned, he found refuge in it. That night, he had visions of the man he once was, the berserker who cleaved man and beast in two in one swing. Kord had visited him, he lamented the fact that Korgoth was suffering and sought to reignite the fire within him and make him whole again. He promised him the wizard who wronged him, that from this point on, his every step will have purpose, that he would be the one who returns Truth to this world. When Korgoth awakened, an amulet hung from his neck.   He sought out Gog-ma-gogg, used him to find the Wizard and as he was about to bring him to deliverance, in his arrogance, he was transported into the underdark to wander around aimlessly forever. While in the Underdark, he learned how to survive, both by living off the land and killing all those hostile towards him. The ruthless Korgoth will not stop until Speculees lies dead at his feet and all know the will of Kord.

Korgoth Mental Notes: Prideful idiots
Korgoth Mental Notes 6

We've made it to Gracklesturgh, upon planning our entrance, some of our number were not so keen on what we came up with in order to get supplies and get out. Part of me thinks Eldith thinks we enjoy the company of these dwarves... or we are here to pick out a lovely hovel among the grand denizens of pricks and losers that make up this city. Kong seems to be disturbed by the word slave, I think he would enjoy the company of my homeland as slavery is a punishable offense by death. Although, some of Kongs... mannerisms might get him exiled over time, particularly ones concerning hygiene. Even the orcs of Bael'grogg would take offense to his habits... The big blue fuck is the worst, I don't know if he's an elven prince or not, but he is too prideful to be an effective leader. If he is truly the prince, I think we did his people a favor leaving him to his fate.   Walking the streets made me think of why I never learned dwarven when I was in Bael'Ruger growing up. Cyrrus would have taught me if I wanted to learn... I was young and stupid, thinking of only the things I cared for in the now. Roughing it in the woods, hunting, and practicing with my Feir-kin. Zeder reminds me of myself too much. Great promise, but ultimately too anxious to get started, at times, he trips over his own feet because hasn't decided which to lead with. Luckily, he still came through, we got much of the supplies we needed for journey ahead.   Unfortunately, we stopped at a tavern to grab a few beers and gather information on how to smuggle ourselves out of the city possibly. Our antics earlier or now have caught the attention of the city guard. For a moment, I thought this might be it, but Zeder cut the bullshit and surrendered. This will be the first time I've been arrested... sober... at a bar... Back home, petty crimes would be remedied through service to the state. I'm hoping this is no different...

Korgoth Mental Notes: Mistakes were made
Korgoth Mental Notes 5

So while resting, I woke up to some noise thinking it might be another ambush. Seriously, after grick's, water weirds, kippers, duregar, and swarms of more fucking kippers, I was seriously not in the mood and was getting quiet nettled from these battles. Luckily, i was pleasantly surprised to watch this mushroom looking thing with i think a crown and a cape. Looked like a larger version of Stool. Anyway, it was trying to talk to Myseri and she immediately started to kill the shit out of it. Best part, it turns out it was Zeder and one of his illusions. Worst part was Denalt, the hero of Greenest, the town I AM CONVINCED teleported him into the Underdark for return the town to a nice and quiet place to live, almost stole the kill. Still was pretty funny... You know, I do wish it was real. I think the cape and crown would have looked good on me.

Korgoth Mental Notes: I'm on a boat
Korgoth Mental Notes 4

Attacked by water things, but nothing the muscle bro's can't handle. Fish did what they do best, gawk and all these surface dwellers doing all the work. Where the fuck is my light? Found out he's drowning in the water, everyone was having trouble reaching for him. I got him out pretty quickly, but I felt... Something... while reaching to him. Think i killed something invisible. Whatever, Zeder had been under there for a while, better check up on the snot.   He flicked me off, to be honest, I actually approve of this response, but I get the feeling he thinks I'm some dumb ass. I understand the misconception after running into my fair share of 'bretheren' in this land, but to drive home that point, I grabbed his middle finger along the grip and ever so slightly began to contort all the joints in his finger. I think he might be starting to understand, or maybe he's just done with today. We'll see.

Korgoth Mental notes: Our savior has arrived
Korgoth mental note 3

Found some poor sod floating on a log in the middle of the dark lake. Mouthy little mouse he is, one whom sings his own praises. I can see that Zeder is becoming physically ill listening to this nonsense... or maybe it's the farts, i'll lay off him for a while, see if he's wised up.

Korgoth Mental notes: My life as a Sailor
Korgoth mental note 2

Zeder gets on my nerves, he's lucky I need him for light, although I've found a compromise I am satisfied with by farting around him when I find the opportunity. Kippers suck, always attack me, but then again, I'm the only one who gets out of the fucking boat most of the time. Tried to talk to the drow they resurrected, thought maybe they aren't bad if you can talk to them one on one. How wrong I was, oh well, he can suck gas when Zeder isn't.   Came across some of those crazy dwarves with the dark skin, they threw javelins at one of our members. So Kong and I swam over to the boat, when they realized how many of us there were, they surrendered. I grew quickly tired of the conversation quickly when they insulted us with their price after they attacked us. This apparently pissed off Misery, whatever, don't care, got javelins. Anyway, muscle bro's got my back. Maybe he'll give her a belly rub or whatever to calm her down.

Korgoth mental notes: Today, I touched a cat
Korgoth mental note 1

So after someone told us all to run this one direction, we were told to run back through the city the other way. I can hardly see anything outside the city at this point so i needed someone to direct me back. Misery offered to let me hold her tail... From my experience with normal cats, that's a good way to get scratched... I am very confused and afraid that this might have some cultural significance that i'm oblivious of... This disturbs me, I better vent some frustration, I see some barrels ahead. I'm gonna kick the shit out of them.   Kong had the same idea. Cat seems mad. That monkey thing seems madder... Fuck you monkey.   Eldith and others that ran off for some reason came back as we were making our escape, they were getting pissy with us and I am moments away from picking them up and hurling them in the water towards the boat. Luckily... or maybe unfortunately, it didn't come to that.

Korgoth mental notes: Detective Korgoth
Korgoth mental note 7

We spoke with a duregar named Captain Blackskull who sees fit to use us to assist them with maintaining order in the city. She is a fool, she wishes to use us to find and capture a darro named Droki, after asking what a darro looked like, her response was less than helpful. "Darro look like darro" she said foolishly instead of the diminutive, crazed, gibbering messes that are mostly kept out of the city... or within their own quarter of the city, I am not sure. She has given us badges to give us the lightest of authorities in the city. It seems to only give us enough pull to move through the city, unfortunately nothing else.   We encountered a duregar who was about to be assassinated on the docks. My intent was to keep the two would be assassins alive and the victim confirm they were indeed trying to kill him. This is not what happened, Zeder killed the one I weakened and the victim ran the moment he was able. We needed to scatter quick before we are blamed for the mess. Blast that boys eagerness... The duregar told us to meet him at the Shattered spire or whatever... I'm hoping he's an important member of a clan and he wishes to employ us to meet out justice against the clan whom tried to assassinate him, this would help us with our... release as it were.   After resting, we went to the shattered spire and met with the duregar we rescued before, he has given us a job to deliver something to another city, no questions. I'm surprised our group did not ask "what's in it for us," especially Kong and Zeder. Zeder always seems... apprehensive when paying money, Kong... well I've noticed the way he looks at things, covets them. I must be wary around that one. The muscle wizard seems the least worrying of the group, other than being obsessed with Stool. Two of the duregar started fighting in the bar, not something that should be uncommon in a bar, but after the two stopped fighting, they seemed to have forgotten why the were fighting... The two didn't appear to be that deep in their cups yet, and the look on their faces were more... befuddled than groggy. I fear the cause of this may be something we've seen recently. I am conflicted, while I am no friend of these people, the demon poses a threat to all. I wonder if we should share our information of the demongorgon existence to mutually benefit each other... However, they may blame us for it just to give them a reason to kill us... that is captain bitch even believes us.   We have spotted the one known as Droki, he has unwittingly introduced us to mushrooms that shrink us. I must remember to take some enlarging mushrooms with me. Might come in handy later... I am trying to remember much of the way as possible, Droki is a fast one for one with such short legs, but his movements are with such purpose. I had thought these Darro incapable of such focus as his brethren seem to be nothing but gibbering madmen. This endeavor may be more than it seems, I am wary into what we may stumble into... Voices up ahead? We must be cautious...

Do you think Cored annoys the other gods? Like, you can't be the god of storms AND the god of battle. Choose one, you greedy bastard! Find your lane and stay in it!
