The Story Thus Far... The orc sat in the cave he called home. He could not help but sigh as he contemplated his fate. Though he had no memory of being in the perfect shape, he knew that it was not that long ago that his life was better. There was once a day when the only threat to his life were bandits and mercenaries. Now, his own body was threatening to dispose of him. He weighed more than twice the size of his father before him. He knew that his fate rested in his own hands. But the excess weight made him tired. And his fatigue only served to keep him from abandoning the ever-present weight. He had few friends, one of which was his spouse. She looked at him lovingly, praying that one day, he would shake the chains of his weight off, and that he might live a long and full life with her. His friends also offered the promise of consistent encouragement if he desired it. With a new year came the chance for a new life. One of personal betterment. And for the sake of his loved ones, as well as for the sake of his own life, the bitter old orc stood from his den and swore to take action. Death was no longer welcome to take him because of his weight. From here on out, Durak the Boulder would be known as Durak the Determined, and his life would no longer be forfeit! ...But this would be no easy task. The last several years had weakened his muscles and his resolve. A single push-up was now impossible, and more than a handful of jumping jacks would take the fight right out of him. Surely, workout programs would serve no purpose for him at this point. For now, he had to work his way to becoming active.
