Marital Status: Stinky - Never gonna happen
and Tharn - His wife is a widow... we guess...
Stinky:
It is unknown why this self proclaimed descendant of a great orc
refuses to use the Tower's showers. Which is a real shame seeing
as how they're co-ed and sometimes the ogre women need lots of
help with those hard to reach areas! However, that might actually
be why. For it's generally rumored/believed/giggled at that Stinky
has... umm... err... a particular shortcoming... that is quite
rare and quite embarrassing for male orcs. However no matter the
cause, the end result is always the same. One really.... really...
smelly orc, so much in fact that he was placed in a division of
undead guards because no one else would tolerate the smell. And
even then some of the ghouls have been complaining...
One of whom was particularly happy to see him since Stinky was
the reason he was there in the first place. A misfired crossbow
bolt during a routine training exercise blinded Tharn the Agitated
in his left eye... along with taking out that section of his skull,
and a bit of his brain and pinning them to the wall behind him.
The experience left Tharn blind in said eye, mortally wounded...
and a bit more agitated. In the brief twenty seconds before he
died he had pulled himself off the wall and was in the midst of
choking the life out of Stinky. Most dying people don't do this.
They tend to whine and cry or flop around gasping for life. This
sheer determination impressed the Magus in charge of the Tower
and he reanimated Tharn. Where he now continues his work safeguarding
the tower and making Stinky's life a living hell. Everyone needs
a hobby after all.*
