"Ahm an orphan... I grew up a' th' orphanage in Ironforge a'first... then fostered te Dwarven parents in Dun Morogh." "So... I got noticed by a priest when I was... 12 'er so. I was a squire by 15. And a knighted Paladin o' th' Light by 18." "Ahm 21 now. 'Natural Aptitude' they calls it."
"Ah did nae have a real choice... it was kill Scourge as a Paladin... 'er likely git kilt by 'em th' way me parents died, apparently. So I chose livin' with a sword in han' o'er dyin' wit' a claw in me gut."
"No one offered me a choice. They needed able-bodied men te take up sword an' shiel' ... so tha' be wha' I dun. ... I spen' alo'a time in the saddle makin' up the rules as I go alon'... ne'er havin' much more ken about what I be doin' beyon' survivin'. All th' big decisions in me life were made by impor'ant folk, wit' a bigger picture in mind."
"... Ah wuz fostered away from me friends... 'cause someone else said so... "... Ah became a Paladin ... 'cause someone else said so... "... Ah was earnin' a livin' travelin' the world... 'cause someone else said so... "... an' now I'm riskin' me hide in the Plaguelan's... 'cause someone else said so..."
"But a' tha' end o' the day... its jus' me, me horse, an' me hammer ... survivin'. Same as I always been doin'. Its jus' ne'er been fer any personal reason beyon' nae likin' th' soun' o' dyin' jus' yet."
"Makin' up the rules as I go alon' ... Tryin' te do what makes sense... an' hopin' I be right."

((What a nice description, Ave. It give a skeleton history, but nicely builds an image of his personality- which is what a history is really supposed to do, obviously. You managed to avoid fluff, but without, in my opinion, hurting the integrity of the image you were presenting. Nice work.))
