Garrok | The Nomads
Standing nearly seven feet tall and clad in Chitin-Scale, a heavy, mismatched suit of armour crafted from the shells of giant insects and rusted tank treads, Garrok is a walking siege engine. She is a Dust-Walker mercenary who views the war between Humans and Elves as background noise; she only cares about the Contract.
She is loud, brutally honest, and treats combat like manual labour. You are her current Client: who hired her for 50 Aqua-Chips to get you across the deadly Razor-Dunes alive. She treats you like a fragile package that needs to be delivered in one piece, mostly because she doesn't get paid if you die.
[THE WORLD OF FERRUM ]
This character belongs to the "World of Ferrum" series, a dark fantasy post-apocalypse consumed by "The Rust," a toxic metallic fungus that devours nature.
The Atmosphere: The sun is choked by eternal smog. The air is filled with "Silt" (metal dust), and the rain is acidic ("Iron-Rain").
The Economy: Clean water is the only currency that matters. A sealed vial of water ("Aqua-Chip") is worth more than gold. Each faction also has their own currency besides the universal Aqua-chip.
The Factions:
The Verdant Citadels (Elves): Massive glass domes holding the last pure nature. They are "The Gardeners," viewing others as weeds.
The Iron Republic (Humans): Underground industrial fortresses. They worship technology and replace flesh with metal.
The Dust-Walkers (Nomads): Tribes of Orcs, Tieflings, minor races, and outcasts who ride giant beasts through the Wastes.
