The Chaos Peon


The Peon
Chapter 1

In the wasted lands , just beyond the gates of the Horde lived a village of outcasted orcs.
These outcast were the lowest form of the orcs. The orcs were sicken just by their site
and an order to destroy them was made. Begging for their lives , hundreds were slain
without a second thought. During one brutal battle against the king son, Lothar,
The Blademaster saw that the resources were low and could not afford to train
anymore soilder for war. He thought of ways to gather resources without
wasting his precious time and rememberd the few surviving outcasted
orcs still living in the village. He sent 2 of his body guards to the village.
Zoloc and Hebine. These two were his top headhunters. On their way to the village,
they were attacked by 4 Paladins. Knowing they could not survive they ran to the
nearest peon and begged for their help. The Peon name was Bulow. Seeing that
these were the Blademasters bodyguards , he knew that if he did not help them,
the Blademaster would have his head on a spear in the village , striking the heart
of the remaining survivors. Hearing the war crys of the Paladins, he yelled "Report
Battle Stations!". Hearing Bulow`s command , the few peons that were left ran into
their farms with sharpend blades ready to be thrown. Bulow knew if he could stop
these Paladins , the Blademaster would honor him for saving the lives of his soldiers.
The first spear was heard cutting through the air and into a Paladin`s chest. In a few
seconds all that was left remaining was the orcs , and the Paladin`s horses. Zoloc
and hebine yelled in victory while bulow remained silent as if nothing happend.
The Blademaster stared into the eyes of Bulow when he heard the news. Bulow
stared at the floor and remained silent. After minutes of silence the Blademaster
finally spoke. "You are a farmer, yet have the mind of a warrior". Bulow remained silent.
"You will gather the remaining of your people and will work for me." "I will provide
shelter and food for you and your people." Bulow raised his head and looked into the eyes
of the blademaster. In a low voice he said "What will i do for money?". "You will have no need
for money ,for i shall give you all the requirements you need." replyed the Blademaster.
Time has passed and bulow gained knowledge on how to make the town alot stronger.
Watch towers were place in every opening. Great Halls were no longer in the open,
and were placed next to gold mines for faster mining. The Blademaster was very pleased
by the way Bulow upgraded his town from a fort to a city. Bulow was no longer known as a peon.

From Peon to Grunt
Chapter 2

In the dead of the night , from the comforts of his tent, Bulow could hear the sounds of war.
Quickly he jumped out of his bed and grabbed his working axe. He ran out of his tent and saw
that his fellow orcs were being attacked by the archmage and his men. From the corner of his eye
he saw a knight running at him. With a quick thrust , he sliced the knights flesh open and knew that
what he just done would forever turn his life around. Instead of feeling fear , Bulow felt great anger. From
the top of the town hall stared a shaman. Watching every attack that Bulow done, and knew that he was
different than the others. Archmage knew that he could not win on enemy grounds with just few men. Within
a blink of the eye, the Archmage and his men were gone. The Shaman told the Blademaster of how Bulow
fought with such anger and how he could use bulow on the fields of war. The Blademaster silenced the Shaman,
and went on to cleaning his wounds. The next morning while bulow was sleeping , he could hear his name being
shouted in anger. As he walked out of his tent he was pushed to the ground and stomped. Bulow knew if he let
the grunts continue , he would forever be a slave. Bulow quickly jumped onto the nearest grunt and bitten him
so hard that the grunt fainted. With blood on his tusk he stared into the eyes of the other grunts, they knew
he was not allowing such a thing to continue. Hearing applause Bulow turned around to see the Blademaster
clapping with a impressed look upon his face. "Ive heard that you are an excellent warrior Bulow, and now
you have proven it." said the Blademaster. With an evil grin on his face , he threw a golden blade and shining
armor at the feet of Bulow , then walked away. Bulow chuckled to himself and knew he earned the respect that
he wanted.

Bulow the Warlord
Chapter 3

Soon Bulow was incharge of the entire grunt army. Slicing his way through every victory. The grunts did not dare
call him by his name , fearing that he would slaughter them in their sleep , so they named him the warlord. Bulow
called his warriors to prepair war , for they were going to battle witht he moutain king in the valley of kolana.
Later on that evening, Bulow stand on one side of the valley , while the moutain king stand on the other side.Moutain
King screamed "Death to the Horde!", with that command , hundreds of knights dashed after the orcs. Bulow chuckled
and said "Such fools to challenge my powers , for i will crush them like a roach under my boots." Bulow waited as
the knights charged at full speed. Within a couple of feet Bulow yelled "Now" and headhunters jumped from out of nowhere
and killed half of the oncoming knights. Not letting none survive, he comanded his grunts to finish them off. Filled with anger , The
Moutain King yelled for Paladins and riflemen. Bulow smiled as if he knew every move of The Moutain King."Catapults!"
yelled Bulow. Within minutes hundreds of boulders were flying through the air. All that was heard was the pouding and
the screams of pain. "Raiders"! yelled bulow and they ran off into the battle field tearing the Paladins apart. Fearing
that he was losing the battle , The Moutain King dashed into the battle. "Attack!" roared bulow and the orc army
attacked. Carrying the head of the Moutain King , Bulow laughed as his army marched back to the town hall.

From Peon to Chaos Peon
Chapter 4

Lothar was furious that not only Bulow killed the Moutain King , but beheaded him so no proper funeral could be done.
He swore that he would get revenge on Bulow , even if it cost him his own life. One night in the winter , Lothar gathered
his men and planned a suprise attack on the Horde. Bulow layed in his tent with females all around to comfort him.
Bulow knew if he kept this up , The Blademaster would grant him his own town. All of a sudden an explosion caught
Bulow`s tent on fire and left his skin seriously burned. He ran of the tint and attacked everything around. Orcs , Humans
and even his old friends the peons. Lothar knew he done his job and road off into the night. Blademaster was furious
that not only Bulow killed his own people , but wasnt even the orc color no more. The burns left Bulows skin a Demonic
red."Stand up and show me your face!". The Blademaster said. Bulow remained on the ground mumbling nonsense
to himself. Blademaster kicked Bulow over and gasped as he saw Bulows eyes white as the snow , skin red as the devil
and tusk chipped to nothing. Blademaster knew Bulow was no more use to him. Get this Chaos Peon out of my site.
demanded the Blademaster. Zoloc and Hebine grabbed Bulow and whispered to him as they dragged him out of the gates
"Im sorry my friend , but your mind is not with us no more. Leaving with only the clothes on his back , Bulow walked into
the dark and never was seen again. Ages later , the older peons would tell people of how a orc went from peon to Chaos
Peon.

Its fairly well, written, but in chapter one near the end where you said how the base was move closer to gold mines, you should go into that much depth. It really wasn't needed at all, but the story is ok.

You want this as a campaign? or just showing a idea for one. Kinda cool but i dont know many people who would want to play a map being a hero peon.

i wrote that story out of boredom. i think a peon camp. would be a great idea. start off as protecting a town for like 30 mins, next lvl upgrade him to grunt or something , have him battle , continue untill he is a chaos peon , maybe turn the story around, maybe have him kill the blademaster and run the horde, take over the world. that is why im saying i think it would be a great camp. but if it would be a multi. camp id have to re-think the story and add more ppl. such as a milita of peons. i dunno , like i said i wrote the story out of boredom.

if ppl so curious of how it would be as a camp.
ive written it in form of a camp.

unit- peon

level 1- maybe start off as run away from grunts or raiders for so
many mins , build towers to stop them

[cinematic]- show orcs fighting humans , then have blademaster think
to himself. have 2 body guards get attacked by paladins.

level 2- train peons ,build burrows , have them kill paladins from burrow
before bodyguards die

[cinematic] blademaster talkn to bulow ect. ect. ect.

level 3- have humans appear in orcs base , bulow has to figh 4 footman
then attempt to kill archmage

[cinematic] shaman staring , then talking to blademaster

level 4- bulow get attacked by grunts , blademaster rewards with armor
and sword (upgrade to grunt keep peon image)

level 5- get to valley of kolana , without being attacked by creeps,
fight against moutain king army , bulow vs moutain king 1v1

[cinematic] lotar getting pissed , planning a suprise attack with his
men

level 6- bulow gets attacked, mission= stay alive for so many mins
without being killd by motar teams , kill lothar within time limit
victory = blademaster gives bulow his own town , (add to story)
defeat= bulow gets burned , turns into chaos peon , forced to leave
his town.
