Prug is a half-orc from the Wild Coast. He was raised among his orc tribe, and along with them, was pressed into service by a band of Hextorites, The Knights of the Iron Nation. Taken to their stronghold, Tyrant's Heart, Prug was a menial grunt, assigned mostly to guarding low risk prisoners. This is where Prug learned something about moral philosophy, from a few dwarven builders who were being held prisoner.
The dwarves were treated well and allowed a certain degree of freedom for consulting on the construction of Tyrant's Heart (and even paid for their service). Finding an open young mind, the dwarves decided to see if the half orc could be taught to reject his tribe's brutality, and begain teaching Prug the concepts of morality, respect and mercy.
At the same time, Prug was also chosen to participate in an experimental training program run by a monk at Tyrant's Heart. This monk took to training Prug in the art of combat, but soon became disgusted at Prug's newly moral outlook. Prug escaped on a supply ship just before his masters were planning on having him kiled.
The ship took him to Blue, and finding that he wasn't welcome there either, Prug headed to Obsidian Bay. Though he kept to himself, there was another adventurer sharing the journey to Obsidian Bay, a young paladin, Gryyffudd, who would later become a good friend to Prug.
