Thronn is a large half-orc with extensive scars covering his thick grey hide. In spite of his coarse appearance, he is human looking enough to mingle with human society, although he is often faces discrimination. He is more comfortable working alone in the wilderness, hunting and tracking, although he can work in a group if it suits his objective. He is used to military structure due to his harsh upbringing in an orc tribal military brigade known as the Bloodclaw. Although he remains loosely affiliated with the group, he has a negative view of his cruel upbringing in the tribe and doesn't particularly like humans or orcs. Thronn was forced to wrestle a vicious white crocodile which was bred by the Kurnok tribe at 5 years of age, a rite which his Bloodclaw war band subjects all male 5-year olds to survive to prove themselves worthy of service to the tribe. He survived the battle, but lost his left pinkie during the ordeal. The albino crocodile which ate the finger escaped into the swamp. He has stalked it as a mortal enemy ever since. Because of the loss of the finger, he was taunted by other Bloodclaw, and his name "Thronn" is an orcish reference to the Three fingers on his hand. The event was a defining moment for him, which drove him become an expert archer, because his half blood status made him less physically strong for melee combat than his orc brothers. He continues to hunt the white crocodile (which was abnormally large for it's age), viewing it as a symbolic trophy as a hunter and his spiritual enemy. He refers to the crocodile as "Quinti" which means "Ghost Finger" in his native tongue.
