Personality

Racist, immature and evil. Korque doesn't have a sense of good or evil. He makes friends for a coin and will make friends for a goal. Anyone who gets in his way he is sure to give 'em a taste of gnome might. He hates when people are racist to gnomes, even more if they make fun of his height, he is only racist if they are racist. He doesn't care if they are necromancers, bonecrushers or whatever. If they make fun of his height he will try and injure them somehow. Korque is rarely nice, only if he is near his older cousin Bingles or other cousin Nigel.

History

Born in post war. The orcs just invaded Khaz Modan and the gnomes were just recovering, they still were conducting regular air-patrols in their flying machines. Korque was born into a warrior family, his dad was injured from a blood lust orc in Loch Modan and Korque was practising daily with his sword. He seemed like a good gnome, ready for a future of fighting for the Alliance and Gnomeregan. Repesenting the gnomes in the future battles. He was a thief, he hung out with the not-so-good crowd. They used to steal from older gnomes, that hopefully weren't magi. But the gang, of thieves and other young gnome hoodlums insisted on never to hurt anybody, nobody wanted to get charged for assault or something stupid. He was only 10 when he moved to East Side Gnomeregan. There was much more people like him, they liked to steal. Thats what provoked him to get better with his knifes, he feared maybe they might try and hurt him.

For four years he tried to fit in, he fought daily. Other gnomes challenged him, actually. He taunted them, he liked to fight. He fought and lost casually, bigger gnomes with some sneaky tricks up their sleeves usually won. He wasn`t the type to stay inside and hermit with his devices. He did sometimes, his new explosive. He wanted it to be much more powerful than other explosives. Some people called him a Wannabe Goblin, or Blastface. Thats what he hated, he then fought them. Blind with rage he attacked his principle at the age of fifteen. He wasn`t charged or anything. He was kicked from school.

A year later, the troggs came. He fought valiantly, he fought with his school rivals. They were desperate for survival. The troggs wouldn`t stop coming. His family decided to leave Gnomeregan with Gelbin Mekkatorques entourage. Thats when they departed. His father protected them from ambushes, but was overwhelmed. His parents were clubbed and Korque killed the troggs, he was blind again with rage. His parents died, the troggs died and he was ticked. He rushed off with his parents body on his backs. He was covered in troggs blood when he left Gnomeregan. He rushed to Kharanos, the other gnomes abandoned him. He couldn`t blame them, he was slow and the troggs were gaining on them. Once he arrived in Kharanos, he met his cousin Bingles again. Bingles took him in, until he attacked an undercover guard in Kharanos. He was kicked out. At the age of twenty-two. He got a mage teleport to Shattarah...

There he lived life in the Lower City, he gambled.. Gambled alot, he won sometimes but mostly lost. He was kicked around and owed alot of money. He couldn`t pay the price. He became broke, he spent all his money buying ale. He drank and drank, until Bingles found him again. Apparently he was searching for some Fel Iron in the Lower City when he found Korque, he was astonished. They left for Kharanos and stayed there for another year. Then Bingles found out a place named Hearthglen they could stay.

They lived there, Korque was taunting racist orcs and such. Nigel came, his cousin. Nigel came to learn engineering with Bingles and stuff. It was kind of like a family reunion. Then he got himself in trouble. Two elves that wanted to kill Korque arrived at the door. They had to leave immediately. They departed for Dalaran and they are searching for a house, he wants to start all over. Although he is still exteremly young, he can start again...

Skills and Abilities

Quick Blend In: Korque's vandalism and mischief in Gnomeregan has taught him to blend in quickly. He can quickly take off his plate chestpiece and shoulderpads and put them into his backpack he carries around constantly.

Gnomish Intimidating Shout: Korque's past has shown him how to decrease the morale of his victims or attackers. It may seem weird, but Korques voice can be deepened greatly while he shouts. Probably scaring the victim.

Taunt: He is small, he looks pathetic. Someone that you could take down quickly and quietly. Korque is a great taunter, racist remarks and other things he likes to say, or insult people.

Blast-a-tron 20XT: 2 times the explosive damage of a regular hand grenade. Korque has been working on this ever since he was twelve. He used this against the troggs and stuff.
