Bloodbane

The Famed Bloodbane Bolthaven (a.k.a. Little Bolty)

At 47 years old, Bloodbane "The Famed" is one of the older half-orcs that one will ever meet. But he fights with the ferocity and vigor of a much younger warrior.   Bloodbane was raised in Sunhall by his mother and his uncle who worked a ship's captain. He never knew his father, an orc, but he inherited his axe from him.   He carries an amulet with him, given to him by his uncle. It bears the insignia of the Blackwater Naval Guild and the phrase "We sail in silence" written in Dwarvish.

Religious Views

His specific religious views are unclear, but Bloodbane places immense value on valor in battle and pays respect to those who fall. In 1427, Bloodbane and his companions traveled to the Hollow Mountain where they encountered the remains of King Thodir Hammersmith wielding the legendary battleaxe, Ravager. Bloodbane knelt before the fallen warrior, muttered a prayer, and took the king's axe. He replaced it with his own, refusing to leave the noble lord defenseless in the afterlife.
