Personality

Alignment: True Neutral

Bashan is big, quiet, and described as very intimidating. Although he doesn’t talk much, when he does he speaks whatever is immediately on his mind. Drawn from his time in his tribe, He never picks a bias side in a conflict, saying whatever he thinks is true at the time. He is fairly smart, though people don’t believe so due to his slow speech. He remains visibly calm in times of stress, and is particularly determined when something needs to be done. When he’s moving, he doesn’t try to get people to move out of the way- He’ll move, and people who don’t move themselves will have a fun time with his Saronite Armour.

History

Bashan was born and raised in a fairly typical Nomadic tribe, however he, much like other men in his tribe, was born larger than average. This resulted in the death of his mother. Throughout his entire life, his larger than average stature has been both cumbersome and incredibly helpful.

Throughout his early teachings, he helped his tribe to transport their goods throughout their travels. He was trusted with the building materials, such as large pieces of wood and cloth for tents.

When he came of age, he set out to assist the other men of his tribe in hunting the mighty Kodo. He continued switching between his hunting and his various other ways of helping the Tribe for many years after.

One day, he set out to explore and learn more about the world. He traveled to, and around, the Eastern Kingdoms until he was the unfortunate victims of a Scourge Ambush. He was equipped with his sword at the time, yet no other protective armour. He fought as long as he could, however they outnumbered him vastly, and he was unable to fend them off and escape. One of the Ghouls moved through his blows, gorging itself into Bashan’s throat.

He awoke some time later in Saronite armour. He was confused as to where he was or why he was still alive, but soon learned that he was involuntarily taken to be part of the Lich King’s Death Knight Army. His mind cried out in pain and anger, but his body took him on a mindless rampaging slaughter for days on end, before he was suddenly released from his internal prison at the defeat of the Lich King at Light’s Hope Chapel.

Although, deep down, he knows his actions weren't his own, he thoroughly blames himself. Because of this, he remains completely neutral in his aimless, nomadic wanderings throughout Azeroth.
