You enter the inn to find it chuk full of mercenaries.

The air is filled with drunken laughter as you move through the crowd. Some of the mercs are playing cards, some are drunkenly dancing on a table or two with a mug of ale in hand, and at one point a brawl breaks out in front of you as one merc slams another merc down against a table, before they both roll off and away onto the floor.

But as you make your way through the chaos, you spot a familiar face. Said familiar face was currently having a drink off with one of the mercs, as a handful of the others where standing on the side cheering them on. And to your surprise, the Entertainer seems to be the one winning, as his opponent takes one long swig backwards, before falling completely backwards on the stool and pass out on the floor cold.

*Gulp* “Aaahhh!. And that makes it my 13th win of the night boys!. Anyone else one wanna try their luck?” He asks the crowd, before he spots you of to the side.

“You know what, scratch that for now. I’ve got some guys to tell stories to around now, but don’t forget some of you guys owe me 10 gold each!. HAHAHA!!” He laughs, as the mercs grumble while they walk away.

You walk over to his table and take a seat before him, as he grabs a new mug of ale from one of the maids.

“So how are you doing?. Hopefully good” He says, before taking a swig “You are probably wondering what all this merc stuff is about. Oh it’s nothing special really, other than the fact that they are partying for another glorious victory for Kang’tur over some royal schmucks once again” Right as he says the last bit, the crowd cheers to this Kang’tur as they hear the name and deed.

“Now who is this Kang’tur you may ask, and I would ask you if you’ve been sleeping under a rock. Kang’tur is one of the big warlords around the underworld, and is also rather known to the public in the larger cities. But no matter that, it’s my job to tell you about these sorts of people. So buckle up and listen, as I tell you about Kang’tur. The Crown Breaker”

Now where to start with this man. He is a big old minotaur bull of enormous size, as to be expected of their kind. He’s strong enough to throw a full grown man 50 meters away without breaking a sweat. And he can lead a frontal assault like no other, storming the enemy so hard that they can’t react fast enough to retaliate in time.

Now info for his past is a bit sparse. But back in the day, when he was a young bull not so long from the thirtyos~, he worked as a guard for some forgotten royalty, who ruled a good chunk of land. Now this land wasn’t the wealthiest, no thanks to the lord that ruled it, but it was stable. But some of the peasants that lived there, were getting fed up with the lord’s constant demands and taxations, so from time to time they would throw a riot on the streets, making some of the other citizens join them in rioting as well.

Now the king did not like this one bit, so he sent out his guards to still the populace. It got bloody sometimes, but it made them quiet down, but only for a time.

Some time later, a war broke out between the kingdom and another. The king led his tropes out to the battlefield, boasting that if they followed him he would lead them to victory… Yet when they were on the losing end of the battle, because of the king’s bad orders and his commanding officers poor tactics, the bloody coward ran away on his horse, leaving all his soldiers behind as meat shields for his escape.

Kang, seeing his ‘leader’ run with his tail between his legs, grew furious at this act of cowardice, and decided that this was his time to take charge.

He ran through the chaos of battle, cut down those who stood in his way with his battle axe, until he reached down as he ran, and grabbed a standard from off the floor, and a war horn as well. Then he lifted the standard high and blew the horn as loud as he could, before yelling to his fellow man.
“RALLY ON ME MEN!!!. The coward we call our ‘King’ has left us to fend for ourselves!, as he runs back to hide in his castle!. But we shall not fall for his cowardice!!. So follow me, my brothers in arms!!. Hold your ground!, AND CUT THESE DOGS DOWN!!!” He shouts, as he lifts up his axe and yells a mighty battle cry, which is followed by a hundred others behind him.

With this moral boost, he managed to squeeze out a win against the opposing kingdom, sending them on the run, as Kang’s army roars in victory and chants his name in preais and glory.

When they got back, Kang was treated like a hero. Whereas the king was made a laughing stock, and his reputation in the people's eyes only worsened. All of this thanks to kang’s endeavors, and the soldiers that lived to tell the mocking tale of his escape.

The king was furious all right, so he ordered that Kang was to be executed for ‘treason’ against the crown.

So there he sat, on his knees chained, with the executioner’s axe ready to fall on his neck. As the king sat on his throne and watched with a smirk on his face, he asked kang “Do you have any last words to speak?” He asks, with a voice full of fake superiority and pride.

“I do have something to say…” Kang says, as he looks the king dead in the eye. “My life has been nothing but struggles and hardships. Where I always had to be stronger, or I would be left to be forgotten. The truth of this world is cruel, but simple. The strong lives to see the sun’s rise, and the weak are nothing but cattle to the strong. I came here to serve a strong leader, yet i’ve only seen weak minded cowards who run when standing face to face with death” He says, as he rises up on his feet, arms still chained. “So I say to you, cowardly king. I think it’s about time for some new leadership… Don’t you agree, men?”

Right as he said that, The sound of blades being drawn sounds out across the throne room, as the king's personal guards got cut down left and right, by the soldiers that fought beside Kang’tur. Then the doors burst open, as more soldiers stormed in with blades in hand.

Some of them ran over to free Kang, as one of them told him that the castle had been secured.

The king in the midst of all of this, was taken back and having a bit of a panic, as he yelled. “How is this possible!?!. You couldn’t have turned all of these dogs against me just from that one fight!?” He yells, as the now freed Kang, walks up to the king and towers over them.

“Hm, It wasn’t that hard to turn a worthless king’s forces against them, when you have done nothing but sit in your castle and dine with the nobles, as the rest of your people starve or froze to death, and your soldiers are ordered to stand guard until they collapse. So i’ll ask you…” He says, as he grabs the offered executioners axe from one of his subordinates, the one that was going to take his head, as he stands over the covering king in his throne.

“Do you have any last words?” He Asks, mockingly.

“Y-You damn Cow!. You can’t do this!. I’m the KING!!” He yells desperately, as he clutches his hands hard on the thrones armrests.

To this, Kang only glares down on them, as he lifts the axe over his head. “A Cowardly king you WERE, now i only see a dead man” He says, as he brings down the aks, and cleaves both the king’s skull, and his crown, in two.

After this, Kang’tur left with the soldiers that helped with the coup, and any other that wanted to tag along, and created his own warband called ‘The Crown Breakers’. Their sole purpose from that point on, was to wage war with any and all kingdoms that they either saw as worthy adversaries, or in dire need of parasite removal. Only the strong are allowed to join them, and those that they take prisoner, can win their freedom, or a spot among their ranks, through bloody combat. And if you were to catch his eye with your skill and talent, and he likes what he sees, you might get yourself a place among his elite

And their numbers have only risened through the years, with Kang leading the charge. And he, as I said in the start, is no joke. With his two handed battle axe in hand, he can cleave a man in heavy armor in two. Crush your bones with his bare hands and hooves. And he’ll run you through with his horns, once he starts to see nothing but Red.

His tactics are brutal and savage in nature, and his loyal soldiers are just as brutal if not more so.

I’ve also heard that he had a tango with the Bloody Juggernaut!. Sure, it is said that he was about to get his head turned to mush by that giant hammer the Jugg carries around, but his saving grace was apparently because the Jugg had some more pressing matters to attend to at the time, letting Kang live for the time being. But the fact is that he had a dance with literal death for 5 minutes!. Hell, there's even talk that he had earned a snippet of the Jugg’s respect!. And you have to be quite the person to get that sort of thing, from the killing machine that is Mal.

But anyways, Kang isn’t all ‘battle and bloodshed’ even tho it does compose most of his activities. Holding feasts with LOTS of alcohol after a glorious battle, is also one of his favorite things to do. Drinking til the world starts spinning, letting out hearty laughs with his soldiers, and enjoying all manner of foods and women alike!. And maybe/definitely punch the teeth out of one or two of his soldiers as well, when and if they get a wee bit too drunk and start to step out of line.

“There is a lot more to tell about him, but…” He says, as the air in the tavern was beginning to get hostile, as you could see all the mercenaries here were about to break into a full on free-for-all, as angry shouts and curses were thrown back and forth.

“I think it would be best if we talked more about him in a less than hostile environment. Sooo… See you next time!” *Snap!* *Puf!* And he was gone in a flash of smoke. Said flash also worked as the trigger for the fight, as he not only just left you in the middle of a brawl, he also set it off as he left.

Oh boy…
