Bruin Lun'Vaal

Bruin Lun'Vaal

Bruin grew up in a Tribe, nestled in the safety of a northern valley. The tribe was called Lun'Vaal, which literally translates to Moon Valley. This was due to the valley they were nestled in amplifying the light of the moon, especially when full, filling it with a silver glow.
A greatly spiritual people, Bruin's ancestors were given sanctuary here when the empire started their crusades when the other clans and tribes vouched for them as peaceful and wise. The late emperor granted them this land to live away from the conflict, so that they may continue to offer guidance to the other Clans and Tribes in times of need, and to act as mediators in disputes between the Empire and the Orcs.
After hundreds of years, the Lun'Vaal tribe had cultivated and developed the area they lived in, creating a beautiful homestead community, self-sufficient and prosperous. The tribe was guided by a High-Shaman, who's duties would include helping and healing those in need, keeping the peace within the tribe, and governing them.
Bruin was in-line to become the new apprentice to the current High-Shaman, as he was born with Grey skin, a sign of a greater connection to the Moon. He trained for 5 years, learning how to lead his Tribe, and how to provide for it. During his finishing ceremony, when the whole tribe was gathered, a great Imperial force approached, demanding they submit to them as their lands had become forfeit to the new emperor after the events of the Nihileth. A great outcry was heard from the Lun'Vaal people, but any resistance was met with greater force, and soon there was conflict. Many were cut down, and Bruin was told to run by the High-Shaman.
Bruin was hounded, along with others that escaped with him, and one by one they were cut down or separated from each other. A foul feeling started to rise within Bruin, and as he was cornered by Imperial soldiers he lashed out with primal ferocity. After some time, Bruin managed to contain his bestial rage, and looked upon what he had done. He vowed to learn how to control his powers, and to unleash them upon the people who destroyed his old home.
