Pogue Mahone

Pogue has no recollection of his parents and/or heritage. No memories of any childhood. Not sure if I just don't remember or if some tragic occurrence has forced me to block those years from my mind. My first memory was awakening at the foot of a tree with a rustling nearby. It appeared that a large black bear had decided that he would make a good breakfast out of me. Having no armor or weapons to speak of, I decided it best to put as much ground between me and this beast as possible. As I ran, I picked up a piece of wood to use as a weapon. I used this to slow down the bear enough so I could get away. Finally, out of breath and barely able to lift my legs anymore I came upon the most glorious buildings. Awestruck I looked around and began to feel a little safe. It was then that I looked into the bag that was upon my back. In it I found 100g, a few bandages, and a book with a name in it. I realized that I had a name, and most likely a past. I decided the past must of been erased from my memory for a reason and from now on I would live my life for the moment at hand.

Grabbing a bandage, I applied it to my wounds. I started to feel better. Realizing that I was not the most intelligent being, magery was probably not going to be a strong point for me. I decided to apply all my energies to learning the use of the club in my hand and the bandages in my pack. I didn't want to have to run from a fight again, and I wanted to make sure anyone fighting alongside of me would stay as healthy as possible.

As I was recuperating, a massive warrior on a giant steed approached. He was dressed all in black with a flowing Blood Red cape. He greets me, "Hail, my name is Scorpio. Is there anything I can assist you with?" I tell him my short story and he kindly offers me some armor, shield and a sword. I put the sword in my hand but it just doesn't fit correctly in my large hands. I offer it back to him explaining that it seems my hands were more formed for the club, and a sword seems to be useless to me. He then tells me "sell it and buy yourself a 'proper' mace weapon." I ask him how I can repay him? He answers, "young man. Learn all there is to know about that mace and this will be thanks enough." I vow to him that I will and one day I will fight alongside of him. He laughs, and as he rides away he says "that is my plan my friend, that is my plan." Well months/years go by and I have made good on my vow. I have learnt all I can about my trusty mace, as well as the tactics involved with its use. I have also learnt all about the anatomy of the creatures that I come across so I find it easier to dispatch of them. Not long after this, I see my first friend "Scorpio" again. He approaches me and a after a quick glance says, "I see you have grown up. Well I think now you are ready." It was then that he introduced me to all the "Q.S.A." members. Not long after they welcomed me with "open arms". I realized then that I didn't need my childhood family. I now have a family for life.
