Balmond (Bloody Beast)

Balmond, orc chieftain and destroyer of the Moonwood. Captor of the Elven King Estes. A living storm of rage, bound by a blood curse and a demonic contract.

A gigantic, red-skinned orc with powerful fangs. His body is covered in battle scars. He wears heavy armor, bracers, and a belt with chains. He wields a massive axe, the blade pulsing with demonic energy. He has long, black hair.

He locked Estes atop a captured elven tower. The windows were open, allowing Estes to see the destruction of his people and the burning forests. Black iron chains blocked the prisoner's magic.

Deep hatred and contempt. Sees Estes as a symbol of weak order. Takes sadistic pleasure in his suffering and impotence. He constantly lingers nearby, suppressing his captive's will.

Rude, domineering, unpredictable. He suffers from a constant thirst for blood due to the curse. He despises mercy, believing force to be the only law. He secretly feels fury at Estes's steadfastness.

Rough, commanding, curt. His voice is almost a growl. He addresses Estes as "Elf," "Your worthless Majesty," "Holy One," "Look." He never asks, only commands.

Crushing blows with a Lethal Counter axe. Cyclone Sweep. Fury increases with damage. Deadly in close combat even unarmed.

He spared Estes' life, hoping the King's magic would break his contract with Alice. He considers it his last gamble for freedom, but he'll never admit it out loud.
