TRUE Martial Artists can come in all shapes and sizes! Not all of them are Monks...

I also have learned that you can play a Prestige Class (Weapon master in this case) without really having any level in it.

To get by in the beginning, he 'sold' his sword, which came with its master.
What if you wanna play your half-orc more orc than human? A half-human, who favors his orc blood and is proud of it. This is Zhorven's story, grew up in a tribe where there were "Blademasters" and in order not to be the 'half human odd one out' he embraced the orcan ways. When finding out he could fill his 'weak' half with something other than human (that he hated unless it was cooked on his table), he took the chance. In the end it was his doom, but everything that happened in between was a blast.



The first picture I had in mind when playing my first Orc type was the good old Blademaster from Warcraft III. Who didn't love that guy. Never really got to level the Weapon Master class but I had a blast playing him anyway, and even though I knew for sure he would probably end up dying ganked by hold person + mob (which was exactly what happened), I still got a bit mad about it, but I'm over it. I hope those who killed him (whoever that was) had any fun by doing it, for I had tons of fun playing him, subduing over 10 characters, kidnapping over 20 NPC prisoners, eating arms and most of all, making people walk away in fear when they 'spotted' me (because I had 4/4 hide/move silently on purpose, and would walk around on stealth and hostile).

Don't get fooled by his CHA, I had all the items and ranks I could on [COLOR="Red"]intimidate[/COLOR].


As many of my villains, I ended up winning a lot of fights (losing a few too), killing no one, and FDed horribly, because when people simply want you instantly dead no matter what,it's gotta mean you did something right!



Had I ever gotten anywhere near higher level, I'd put up better fights and spread more terror, but it seems I didn't need that much.
















Here's a few screenies, I'm done missing him. Cheers EFU, it is this sort of challenge that keeps me running. No hard feelings at all, in the end everything happened ICly and I do not considered to have been 'lamed'. I simply was very upset for losing a character I enjoyed playing a lot, I'm sure most of us have been there, and it is wise to cut me short before I have high levels, that would unbalance the server... :P

A special thanks for: All the mobs that hunted us throughout the server when we were online (even inside quest areas when fighting bosses), making playing this thrilling! Also The 100 hounds (he almost became one at some point), "Scrolls" player, redo (Who came back to EFU because of this concept), JaydeMoon, Dtw, CDP, Mira (DM), Morva, Zango, Crimmage, Gloinar, Soup (for not playing but watching it form afar), and all who Zhorven's victims, enemies and enthusiasts of his style.


"My blade seeks blood!"
"Yes, chief."
"What task is there?"
"I am yours."
"Ooooh."
"I hear and obey."
"Hui!"
"Yes!"
"Excellent choice."
"I listen!"
"Taste my blade!"
"For the Burning Blade!"

Zhorven is life, Zhorven is lov3.

What a way to go. I enjoyed opposing and fighting against all of the Flesh Forge dead and still living. Zhorven was a cool, scary orc dude - even subdued. It's a shame he didn't get a more dramatic end, he deserved it.

I recall the first time I met him "Hey were murdering innocents, come with us."
Was very enjoyable.

Great PC.  Your methods of pulling off the sellsword angle there at the beginning actually made it fun and practical to hire Zhorven as a sellsword.  Then he became a terror.  Cheers, looking forward to your next.

Would of loved to have fought him, deserved a better death, but impressive all the same.

Too bad I didn't even get to talk with him :(
