Citizen of Isabella | Sentinels Guild | Pyromaniac in the Order of Loki |
"Pyromaniac Orinoko the Renegade Womble" with birth certification: 30-7-1997.
Orinoko hails from the village of Isabella.
Orinoko is a member of the Sentinels Guild with Novice rank.
Orinoko was the last true Prince of Springdale who, having largely done away with the over-bureaucratic and (to his mind) dullard-cowards that mired Springdale in stagnation for so long, oversaw a resurgence of the Stag. Springdale under his leadership - in the early years - thrived as a combative, military power though his influence was seen by many as divisive. Indeed it was perhaps the divisions in the city that led to its inability to hold the field against Thakria in those pivotal moments before its demise.
Despite a dabbling in many professions his heart and the vast majority of his time has been as a Knight and he was for a long while one of Avalon's premier fighters; one of only a handful in the modern era to recall a modicum of the combat skills practised by the great heroes of old. He was even head of the Lore Council for a time - on a council populated by peers of decades more experience in the profession. Sadly in his dotage he grew over-cautious and reliant on automation, and when younger more ambitious opposition rose up he was driven to flee.
He was a long time follower of Damocles, god of chaos but threw over the receding Damocles in favour of newly ordained Loki, a grudging respect having been built up between Prince Orinoko and the fire-god's mortal incarnation, Kodiak over decades of combat.
Orinoko was long time Prince of Springdale and indeed had only recently stepped down, unwilling or unable to face the challenge of a resurgent Parrius and Salvador's aggressive tactics, when Thakria launched its fullscale invasion of 1268. Elminster, his second in command, replaced him as Prince of Springdale during their darkest hours but, lacking Orinoko's ability and sharing his elderly frailties, mistakes were made in the defence of the city. Thakria prevailed and ruthlessly exploited the city's weaknesses. Orinoko, turning away from the shame of Springdale's destruction, entered self-imposed exile. It is unknown when he will return; and if ever he does whether it will be in the guise of weak dotage or potent youth...
