| KnightStorm first appeared on Gor in the Chatropolis Kassar camp. He is a simple Warrior of the Wagon Peoples, Tuchuk to be precise. Through several turns of the Ubar, from KnightRanger to Cormac to Hawk to BLADE, He rose to be Camp Second there. Cormac recommended Him for Second in the City of Valkala, which post He accepted, and while there, He uncovered an abandoned Camp of the Tuchuk.
He took up residence there, and renounced His homes elsewhere. This lasted for over a half Earth year, until the powers of that site betrayed Trust and Honor, and lied to Him and to His Brother KnightRanger. Both went in search of another site, and it was found. Tuchuk...the REAL Tuchuk...picked up and moved, once again. Many followed Him, and He became Ubar at Eros Tuchuk Camp. S/some have chosen to return to Webmaze Tuchuk, even though the powers there continue their lying ways, promising that camp to one, and then giving it to another. While this hurts, it is personal, and not to be worried over by Tuchuk. Eros site changed the server twice, and then the software. Many Tuchuks could not be in Camp. This was not addressed in a timely manner and Tuchuk moved once again. Returning to Chatro, Tuchuk now resides in Harigga, City of the Bosk Wagons. Seasons come and seasons go, and with them go some we care for. sylvermyst has moved on, and KnightStorm must also. Of all departures and betrayals, this one hurts the most. Pastures once again have turned brown and Tuchuk now resides at MagnaChat. KnightStorm is senior Gorean on-site, and Tuchuk is the ONLY Gorean room. All issues to date have been addressed in a timely manner and Tuchuk is settling in nicely.
KnightStorm's "use name" is Temji, and as Temji, He has a secondary occupation as a blacksmith. When not engaged in weapon practice, day-to-day administration, drinking paga, and other important business, He can be found at His forge turning out small items needed by the Camp of the Tuchuk. While He's not the best there is, He tries hard. Temji wears twelve Scars on His face. Highest is the Red Scar. This is the Courage Scar, accorded all Wagon People Warriors upon meeting the requirements of Manhood. Below that is a Purple Scar, signifying Chatro Kassar. Next follows the Blue Scar of the Dark Brotherhood. There were originally five of those, but only two remain in Tuchuk; the second is Qar Qarth, the Adjutant (for an updated list of the Dark Brotherhood, see the appropriate page). After that, another Purple Scar, signifying Webmaze Tuchuk Camp. Awarded with that was the Green Scar of the Ubar. Next, there is the Black Scar, denoting He is a Member of the Original Tuchuks. Following that, there is the Purple Scar for Webmaze Kataii, where His Dark Brother GreyEagle was First Ubar, and following that is the White Scar of the Talon Brothers of Kataii. Next, the Purple Scar of Eros Tuchuk Camp, which lasted approximately six months, then the Purple Scar of Harigga at Chatro, and the most recent addition, the Purple Scar of MagnaChat. Finally, Temji has the Yellow Scar of Wagon Peoples Ubar, a title He held for one turn of the seasons. In appearance, Temji is a typical Tuchuk. He has the slightly Oriental cast to His features of all Tuchuks and is of average height. He stands a bit less than four ah-il tall, and weighs a little over sixty Gorean stone. His hair is black and curly, and braided down His back. He has deep set hazel eyes, which flash with Scorpio fire when He is irate. His leathers are black, and the war harness He wears is studded with gems as mementos of victories won. He wields the typical Tuchuk weapons and is also well versed in Sacred Steel in all its forms, the great axe of Torvaldsland, and the mighty peasant bow. He wears a yellow silk shirt, and His personal colors are black and gold. He has a conical steel helmet surmounted with red and yellow leather braid, lined with the soft fur of urts with a chain face piece, which He generally disdains to wear, and the black lacquered shield embossed with the standard of the Tuchuks. Around His neck hang a gold chain with a silver tarn pendant with ruby eyes and diamond tipped wings, as well as a pendant on a chain of Sacred Steel. It holds a locket with a small, simple stone, signifying the location of the Home Stone of Tuchuk, made and gifted by sirus, formerly a boy of Tuchuk and perhaps the third most hurtful loss. In addition to that, a simple silver chain with heart, hands and crown adorns His throat. About His left arm is a black leather armband, in remembrance of a hope. As with all Goreans, Honor counts most highly with Temji. He has been seen to stand alone against entire Camps to defend what He considers Honorable. While not always right, He willingly admits His mistakes, and continues to try hard to be right. His measure of Honor is whether He can continue to face Himself in the mirror, and like Who He sees. Never have A/all agreed with Him or liked Him, but neither can A/any truthfully say He is duplicitous. |
