Marog gro-Uzmakh

Marog gro-Uzmakh, called Sir Marog or Marog the Orc, was an Orsimer knight in the service of Aymar the Black, Duke of Esgair.

Biography
Marog gro-Uzmakh was born in the Wrothgarian Mountains, a son of the Uzmakh tribe's chieftain. The tribe migrated north-east shortly before 3E 274, prior to an attack on its stronghold in the spring of that year led by the Duke of Esgair (known among the Orcs as the Black Wolf).

The entirety of the Uzmakh tribe was slaughtered on the duke's orders – including Marog's father, mother and siblings. Marog, aged around ten, was himself targeted by the Bretons. The duke witnessed the boy killing a knight and two men-at-arms with his father's axe. Aymar commanded that the young Orc's life be spared and took him captive.

A wild and enraged Marog languished in the dungeon of Esgair Castle for many months. After his temper had cooled he was granted incremental liberty by the duke, who arranged for his 'ward' to receive the training of a Breton knight.
