Once upon a time, in the frozen hellscape of Kiroa, where the weak perish and the strong follow, there lived a chieftain named Torak. His name was once howled with reverence across the icy wastelands but now is erased like the abandoned cadavers of so many before him. But Torak was no corpse, not yet, although he had been left for dead. He had been challenged by a younger warrior, who pierced him in his side. Unceremoniously, he was stripped of his title, and more importantly, most his equipment, and abandoned under a tree.

Alone and in the dark, his mind wandered, and he considered letting the frigid climate take him, as it does to all men in such a terrible hell. He stared up at the moon, and chose to live one more day. And so he sat up, and began to tend the wound, so that it might heal.

**Choose Torak's Key Initial Motivation**

1. **Take Revenge:** Kill his young usurper. Tend his wound, train, heal, hunt down his former tribe, exterminate them, and kill his usurper. Take the women as war brides.

2. **Start Afresh:** Build or join a new tribe entirely, forgetting who he once was. Abandon his old identity.

3. **Appeal To The Yeti:** Kiroa is ruled by mysterious megayeti, who tower anywhere from 12ft to 200ft depending on age, genetic purity (they often mix with men), and who knows what else.

4. **Turn To The Dark Arts:** Abandon his role as warrior, as he has failed, and become a wizard or shaman instead. Let's see if his wits save him better than his sword did.
