Background for Kam VeinGasher

Kam was born as the eldest set of twins on an island that was unkind to non-humans, especially hard to orcs as they were seen as brutes and prone to violence. She and her younger twin brother grew up experiencing this type of discrimination on the daily. It eventually came to the point where they started believing it. “If you can’t beat them, join them.”

They both became famous on the island for their violence and brutality. Not as warriors per day, but as gladiators, entertainers for the sick and twisted who crave blood and mayhem. In her mind, who was really the “orc” here? But her brother Horta, fully embraced the role, becoming more and more obsessed with maiming than actually living.

Recently, Horta has joined an organization that preaches freedom and a new start for everyone. He’s been trying to get Kam to join as well but to her, it sounds like a scammy cult and She outright told him so. However, this has only emboldened him, trying to convince Kam that because of her talent, the organization could flourish and take over the island.

Kam, even though the idea was insane and the group perhaps even more so, she couldn’t get it out of her head. After all, who on this island hasn’t abused her and her family for so long? In the end, and without warning, she took the first ship off the island in an attempt to escape the choice Horta had forced onto her.

Where does Kam go from here? Does she accept the offer and join the cultist like resistance on the island? Or does she reject it and go and live a new life in a new land?
