The way I am going to work Alterra's history in is just for this RPG only. This is not an attempt to usurp the Grand Masters power, just a way to ease the rp-ability of everything.
Alterra keeps its own history, but as far as this RP is concerned, the NWO has devised a dangerous new weapon. They don't really know what it does, or how it works. The thing was an accident in a lab somewhere. But, the effect is obvious. point the devise at something, and it is gone. They don't know where it goes, or what happenes to it when it arrives, it is nolonger here to bother them. That is all they care about.
What happens next is a small NWO infiltration force discovers a Legion of Alterrans while the camp slept. And shot them with this new device. The effect is silent, instant, and un-noticable to the sleeping Alterrans. When they wake up, nothing appears different. They don't know anything hs happened. They device has transported them into Dagorhir. In an invaded and occupied country. As Alterras are likely to do, they retake the country and call it home. They don't know why the rest of alterra is missing, and they don't know why the NWO hasn't attacked lately, but they go back to training and preparing for another fight.
Unbeknownst to them, the device has transported them into Dagorhir. The Alterrans have been in this world for about a month, and have taken the country back and called it their own.

Urks ar differnent than orcs. They are approimatly a head or so taller than a large human, roughly 8 ft. Their skin is grey, they have claws on their hands and feet, and are solid muscle. Each clan has a distinct clan tattoo on their face somewhere.
They are much stronger than a normal human, have quicker reflexes than a normal human, and have a MUCH more sensitive olfactory system than humans. they can even smell emotions.
Orrin None-son is slightly smaller than a normal urk, roughly 6'8" and wears something similar to an armored karate Gi. He typicaly wields a small coffin shapes buckler and a short sword. He wears a leather luchedor style mask when in public places, it is not currently on.

Alovabach Dasga was cast from his monastaic order for violating his pasifist vows. He began to "walk the earth", and in his effort to help others be good people he has taken up many skills. Poet, peasant, defender, and gypsy preacher are all titles that he wears with pride. No longer the naive monk, he calls himself Alo Talweaver.
A short man, Alo stands only about 5'8". Always driven to put others first, he dresses simply, but takes pride in two possesions; the robes of his former order, and a strand of prayer beads he keeps wraped around his shield arm.
He also bears a charcoal rendition of Orrin's clan tattoo, as a tribute to the "family" of his new life.

The man now known as Basileus Dienekes, was born Phagyas Omada. Fairly Tall and Built like a tank at 6'0" and 200 lbs, The stocky warrior has been training his mind and body tword perfection since the Age of six. He had travelled from his village deep in the mountains far to the north of Alterra in NWO territory...
He learned of his Anchient Spartan heritage and picked up his ancestral shield, spear and sword and began his long trek... Along the way he learned that his was not the only village built by his people, but the rest had met the same fate of his own, after being discovered for being akin to rebel resistance to the facist tyranny, they were invaded, and burned... so he has spent his life attracting members to follow him and embrace the Ideals of Equality, Liberty, and Fraternity, while searching for long lost brothers seeking refuge from their tattered homeland, much as he was searching for a home in Alterra.

Necavi... Necavi Necavi Necavi. Necavi Omnes means, "I killed everyone," I'm sure that says enough. Or does it? OooOOOOooooh. Don't expect a mold for her, there isn't one. For either of us. ;D

1. Do I need to post a character bio or do you all know mine well enough?
2. Are we currently in the camp that was "transported"?

It should just be something quick. Things that two outsiders would have seen while observing you. It doesn't have to be more than a physical discription, but if you want to give more, than that is fine.

Tiberius Eaghra The noble bloodline of a forgotten ancestry flows in the veins of this warrior. He was at the beginning, alongside Szabo, for they were the beginning. A receiver of the Vision, he saw the glory of the Star and let it fill him with both the hope of his destiny and the undying will to fight for it. With the very drops of his sweat and blood, he and Szabo formed the entity that is Alterra. A warrior, craftsman, tactician, and politician, Tiberius is also a lover--that of Necavi Omnes. Each year, at the end of the fourth month, the Festival of the Rising Star is held in honor of his birth, along with the Ludum Primae Lucis—The Tournament of the First Light. It is this tournament that decides the current Weapons’ Master of Alterra. Armed with only his soul, his Katana, he is one of the two Grandmasters, he is Tiberius Eaghra. He is the Rising Star.
As for my appearance, I'll be the same as I look in real life, but a year or so older. I'll be 5'10" and 165lbs. My muscles will be about the same they are now, but perhaps a bit more cut, due to the constant exercise of travelling and fighting.

Well... I'm not 100 percent sure how to do this.
Tormir Tormir is a blood angel. He looks human save for vampire fangs and black wings similar to that of a raven. He stands 6'3'' and weights 250 pounds. He wears pants and a tunic and bears a hammer and some offhand weapon(unless there is a two-hand weapon for him). He was cast from Odin's side in Valhalla and fell foul of a vampire. He then became a blood angel. He looks to fell any and all foes who stand in his way and sees himself as the vengeful striking hammer of God. And he becomes thus everytime his blackened wings are spread. He fell into Centrawoven and has roamed ever since but still calls the Vale(I think thats what it is) home.

um ok i has 2 personas but since i am way unfamiliar with how i should go with my urk one ill go with my other
His name is Ephraim,he is a werewolf, he is about 6' even 225lbs muscular build, dark skin, shoulder length black hair, brown eyes. He is a kind and patient person but when the time calls for it he will act without hesistation, he does what is needed to be done no matter the cost, and has a lousy sense of direction >.>
Royal guard to his king as an escort to a far off land to negotiate a treaty, the escort was attacked by a beast that slaughtered all of his comrades, his king and almost him, he survived but just barely. as he lay there dying he looked at the moon and began to change. after some time and with the help of a few people he finds his way to haven where he acts as an escort to those who are in need of one.
thats just a quick history lol

Now I'll make an attempt to bring this back to life. Glork Grork is a greenskin half-breed. He's half Ork and Half Goblin. He never knew his mother or father just the fact that he didn't fit in with either his Ork home or a Goblin village that he happened upon on his travels. He's skinny and wirey like a Goblin but has the ferocity of an Ork. He's about 5'10 155lbs. and uses a spear like he was born with it.
