Mental characteristics

Personal history

Gorgûm grew up the eldest of six children. He learned at a young age how to care for his siblings, learning a lot of domestic skills along the way, despite his family having servants to do much of the work around the estate. The estate itself had been in the family for seven generations, which for Orcs worked out to be about 150 years. Before that, it had been ruled by some cousins, before warfare, illnesses, some accidents, and a pair of assassinations made Gorgûm's ancestors the next living heirs to the Barony.   His brothers and sisters, for the most part, had joined the military, in both the Imperial Army and the Imperial Navy. One went into the priesthood, and did her duties at the shrine of Ahwok, the god of the sea. His two youngest siblings, twins by the names of Gratch and Narghest, still lived in the family estate. They helped run the estate, a bit. Mostly they did whatever pleased them. Mostly, they wrote bad poetry and played musical instruments, badly.   Gorgûm married Sheshkara Amûg (fourth daughter of Kroll and Bubol) when he was 26; a political pairing, designed to unite his barony and the Amûg Barony in alliance. It worked, and the pair actually ended up loving each other. They have three kids, two daughters and a son. The two daughters are adult, the son is only thirteen years old.

Accomplishments & Achievements

He is considered a good administrator of his barony.

Intellectual Characteristics

He hates the sun (as many Orcs do, but he is vehement about it), and does whatever he can to be nocturnal. His normal sleep schedule is nocturnally based, and will only go out in sunlight under duress or great need.   Fun loving, easy to laugh, but can be kind of rough when playing.

Personality Characteristics

Likes & Dislikes

He likes riding. He likes Viscount Silverbrow, and enjoys the parties the Viscount throws, probably because the Viscount typically holds them at night. He also has a fondness for Elven music and foods, in addition to the Orcish, and is always trying to get Taeranil to have more Orcish bands providing the music, which often works.

Social

Reign

He has 25 bannermen as vassals. Viscount Silverbrow is his liege.

Family Ties

His wife's family is the ruling family of Amûg Barony.

Hobbies & Pets

Has a hound named "Ahzbadur". Not a working dog, just a pet.

Wealth & Financial state

Wealthy, but "middling" for a Baron. Still wealthy enough to do the things he needs to do.
