The first thing to tell you is my character is a Barbarian, not a Ranger. I decided to try something different after filling out the character form sheet thingie. I couldn't figure out how to edit my original submission and didn't think filling out another one was the way to go. Let me know if there is a way to do that - thanks.

I am also playing half-orc which is also different for me, usually go with a half elf. I have elected to go with the Primal Path option as well. I did consider the wild magic version which looked interesting. I am using D & D Beyond for character generation and maintenance. Didn't want to spend the money to down load Tasha's since I already have it in hard cover and decided to stay with the player's handbook standard options.

So, I started out as a child, half orc variety. Cute little bugger I was. Mainly brought up by orcs as you will see when you get to know me. I very much enjoy chopping things (monsters) up with my broad sword. Also quite fond of shooting them with my long bow to tenderize them a bit. Makes good eating. Ah, the good old days. As a youngling the days were filled with fun hunting monsters and enjoying them over a camp fire. As I grew up, I was eventually shunned by both my orc tribe and human ancestors. So I have been a loner for a long time now. After a while you do get used to it, but I do prefer some company from time to time. Therefore I have decided to try out the Tempest Brothers Expeditionary Company group in the hopes of gaining a new family of sorts. My party of adventures who I have not met yet, doesn't know it, but they will be my clan and family moving forward. I will protect them with every skill and weapon I have available to myself.

I am not aware of many half orcs here at all. I am one of very few indeed. As such, I have had to learn how to get along with everyone else which isn't too bad. But, if you see my blood start to boil, better find a good place to lay low. When the rage comes upon me my enemies will not fair well at all. It is a sight to be seen and not felt.

Since most of my time has been spent honing my combat skills, I have spent very little time with traditional learning activities. I do not know much at all about my tribes history or the human part of me. Basically next to nothing. I could not provide any sort of detailed history if I tried. Also being an outcast at such an early age doesn't help with that either. Not much to go on. As well, I am not imbued with the social graces since I have had very little interaction with most anyone. I tend to annoy or bother others with out trying. But, if you are in a fight, you will be hard pressed to find a better companion or associate. What little I know follows.

I mostly grew up in the Cauldomo region and the Wistness area, a small village in between them served as a base of operations. My tribe seemed to be always on the move, never in one spot too long. Basically an overgrown camp of sorts that was mobile circling around the small village of StateCollegeus which served as a source loot and food for us. No wonder the humans don't like me. Frequently moving helped us stay alive from the village's retribution. However, one day they caught us flat footed and the Blue and White clad villagers kicked our collective asses. I did not kill one of them since they seemed vaguely familiar, perhaps a distant relation - I don't know, but my orc clan was not happy with me at all and gave me the boot.

Since that day 15 years ago I have been on my own. Living off the land and traveling around. I heard about the adventuring company which sounded good to me and slowly made my way the the big city. As I got closer, I slowed my progress down while attempting to learn the ways of the city folk along the way. Most of them do not make any sense to me and I can somewhat tolerate them, striving for patience and keeping my mouth closed. Both of those are very hard for me and I struggle with that challenge. Sometimes I just haul off and smack someone around, but usually keep myself from doing real harm. Usually.
