A Greyskin warrior, the primary character through which the world of Pillar is introduced. Born to a sometimes-prostitute, [[HeroicBastard fathered by an unknown client]], named ''A Grey Sun Veiled by Dark Clouds on a Cold Wind'' upon his birth. He spent his childhood wandering the streets of the [[WretchedHive City of the Horde]], a poor, dirty, sprawling town populated by the lowest of the low, where clean water is scarce and food scarcer. After an encounter with a knight of the Iron Wolves Warrior Guild, however, and the destruction of his home and possible death of his neglectful mother, he resolved to enter the guild's service and leave Horde.

!!! The Land of Metal
to:
!! The Land of
An ancient land that has seen the rise of several powerful empires, rumored to be the birthplace of civilization. Stretching from the Green Sea in the east, to the Storm Sea in the west, and filled with bountiful forests, fertile fields, wide rivers, and great mountains, with hundreds of mines churning out many tons of valuable ore, this rumor is not without merit. The race called the Greyskins originated in this land.
!!!The Iron Empire
The most recent great civilization to rise in the Land of Metal, and the most expansive. At its height it stretched from the Green Sea to the Storm Sea, across the Thorny Isthmus and the Gulf of Stars to the peninsula known as Ashland to the south, to the border of the Land of Stone in the north (of which it made slow, steady conquest before its end). Despite tactics and policies ensuring nigh-invulnerability toward invasion, it fell to civil war amongst its powerful warlords, leading to a fracturing into dozens of effective city-states. After these were reconciled years later, the cities begin to reknit and rebuild into what would become known as the Iron Remnant.
[[folder: Tropes Related to the Iron Empire]]
*AfterTheEnd: The empire's fall didn't stop just at their CivilWar. While scattered, weakened by disunity, and impoverished of food and supplies, Redmen raiders from the Bloodland across the Storm Sea began battering away at the eastern coast, the city-states of the Land of Stone reclaimed much of their land, and fleets of Snowskin exiles from across the Green Sea began to carve out what would become the Land of Lost Leaves in the west. The result was a much-reduced border, with nearly a third of their land taken up by the new Land of Lost Leaves alone. The Iron Remnant still treats their era as this trope, even 600 years after, believing they will one day rule again. The wiser citizens hold serious doubts.
*CitadelCity: One key to their strength was their policy of constructing each city like a fortress. In fact, their armies would only progress further after their most recent advancements were sown with one or two of them. While it made for very slow progress, they were nigh-invulnerable to invasion because of it.
*CivilWar: What finally managed to bring the empire to its knees. Strife between the fortress-cities and their powerful warlords grew into open conflict, with each lord aspiring to rule. After years of conflict, the royal family was dead, many cities lay in ruin, and the warlords and their followers were forced to cease hostilities toward each other when the threat of starvation loomed. The end result was the dissolution of the strongest empire ever created, having split into dozens of impoverished city states held by rival lords.
*MyCountryRightOrWrong: Held this view. It worked well when their country was fighting (and bowling through) foreign enemies, but the ideal broke down when the country fought itself.
*ProudWarriorRaceGuy: A good portion of the male population were members of the military, and even those that weren't were imbued with a strong fighting spirit and often given at least rudimentary combat training.

Or Kuun is okay.
By the way, it's pronounced "Or-kune Ar-ken B-yun-dis". The "Kuun" part is supposed to be sort of throaty, but it doesn't really matter.
My name is taken from a fictional, nonhuman character in a story I'm working on. "Or" and "Kuun", and "Ar" and "Qen" are meant to be the same word, but this site doesn't make it easy in that regard. "Or" is sort of a prefix, indicating gender (male). "Ar" is a prefix indicating profession/lifework, in this case, a Warrior (translated more specifically, it indicates a lifelong dedication towards the art of, well, killing things, as opposed to, say, a soldier, who dedicates ''part'' of his life to that). "Kuun" means "noble", and "Qen" means leader/ one who guides. Byundis is a clan name.
So, translated, my name means "Noble-Male Leader-Warrior from the Byundis Clan".
