Nerthus the elegant orc

Name: Nerthus Age: 31yo 6'3 Foot size: 13US Race: orc

Background: Nerthus was born to a religious tribe around the middle of a civil war between orcs and elves. While growing up, she left the church trained in the art of combat and was sent to the frontlines in her early teens. she dismissed the tribe's non-violent ways and engaged in war crimes, but not limiting to pillaging, ransacking homes, and even killing civilians caught in the middle. It wasn't till her mid 20's where she nearly choked an elf child to death. It shook her enough to start wandering why she was doing the things she does and why she let the "might make right mantra" dictate almost most of her life after leaving the tribe. As far as she remembers most of her victims had been adults up to that point and hadn't come across a kid till now.  At the end of the civil war, she fled from the battlefield and lived most of her late 20's isolated in a neighboring forest. Around that time, she formed her own village she named "heughs landing." The inhabitants are made up of people who were victims of the war and with their help, they slowly helped her come to terms with her actions while they're some who may accept her as their village chief but still resents her for what she's done. Nerthus understands and she knows it'll take time before everyone accepts her completely. She runs a church that's at the center of the village and occasionally preaches to the town. She may be a peace but will occasionally have flashbacks of the war. She's still doing fine by the end of the day. m

hobbies: Cooking, reading a bible, and playing cards with people on her free time.

Demeanor: She's generally levelheaded and. When she's in a bad mood, she'll remove herself someplace quiet where nobody sees her and destroy something she sees. It's why she keeps getting new furniture at her place.

quirk: like most orcs, she herself is a hugger and unlike her cousin Aluma, she tries to hold back as much as humanly possible. She's surprisingly recipient to the idea of a foot fetish despite not knowing what it is. When she wins a game of poker, she likes to celebrate it by getting drunk. Her elegance comes from her being educated and being a surprisingly good dancer like she's noble born.
