MazActaz

== Name ==
Geolord Maz'Actaz - Leading Alchemist within the Twilight's Hammer. He has been nicknamed "The Dark Shaman" by members of The Ragefire Legion
== Physical Traits ==
A regular sized but a rather scrawny looking jungle troll that hides his appearance with a crude masked hood. He is dressed in dark purple mail armor, he carries a large, mysterious scepter that is in the shape of a trident.
His main feature is the lack of tusks.
== Race and Class ==
Troll Geomancer.
== Occupation ==
Alchemist, Trickster, Geomancer and Cultist.
== Family ==
Twin Brother: Moe'Actaz - Killed by The Shaman Gaderok & Shadow Hunter Bamboochaa (short story coming soon)
== Background ==
His first memories are when he and his twin brother were being trained to become grunts within the Twilight's Hammer, it was a painful struggle, the fires of hate burned inside of them.
After they proved to be quite intelligent they were trained in geomancy under various teachers.
Years passed until they became teachers themselves.
After the death of his brother, Maz'Actaz managed to get the following of his students as well, launching him to higher ranks within the Cult.
== Family Background ==
Maz and his brother were kidnapped as whelps and brainwashed, their intelligence may have been boosted as well.
== The Geoscepter ==
No one knows the true origin of "The Geoscepter" - The few theories about it's origin can not be proven without a complete dismantle of the weapon and a risk of destroying it.
One thing is sure though, it is ancient and very dangerous in the wrong hands.
When Maz and his brother found the the scepter, it appeared in the shape of a trident, it is so large it could be taken for a heavy polearm but in fact it's rather light compared to size. (the size alone gestures this was not made for any mortal) The scepters power comes from a single Chrystal, Maz has a theory about the trident simply being a enchanted casing crafted by it's former owner.
The scepter has the power to manipulate all the elements and will change in color and sometimes appearance depending on which elemental power is being forced forth, only a skilled geomancer, mage or shaman (shaman are strictly against geomancy though and would seek to destroy it) could properly use it and keep in under control.
Maz'Actaz believes himself to be the scepter's guardian, he holds much fear and respect towards the powerful weapon, he does not trust anyone else to handle it and keeps it's origin and abilities secret. he has never tapped into much of it's powers.
The scepter was believed to be destroyed when Bamboochaa, infused with the strength of Rhunok, shattered it.
Maz'Actaz then learned of the Chrystal and how the broken casing was worthless. He has now built a new staff-casing for it.
== The Twilightning ==
Maz's Mechanical-Hog, his pride and joy.
Once when Maz'Actaz was wandering the waste's of Silithus he heard a strange, roar like buzzing sound, he decided to investigate, certain it was some unknown species of Silithid but once he crosses the sand mound he had been standing behind he saw only clouds of dust and sand, the sound drew closer and a yellow machine with only two wheels appeared, it's rider (a dwarf) howling with joy.
Maz was amazed by this machine and decided to take it, he raises the Geoscepter and the land rose, tossing the rider off the hog.
Maz made his way to the machine and erected it back to it's wheels, the dwarf was not moving so he decided to leave him to his fate.
The hog was big enough for a troll, it was now bent and dented but otherwise undamaged, He sat down and touched the controls, soon it roared once more and Maz found the sound beautiful, before he knew, he was speeding through the desert, he had never felt so free.
Once it was nighttime he returned back home to his cave, getting into the settlement with it was easier then being allowed to take it into the cave. (Ceylin was not keen on it)
The Hog became his new hobby, he took it apart to learn how it worked then put it together again, he even used his alchemy skills to make some improved fuel for it.
He hated the yellow color, it even had a Alliance shield on it, not good enough, the yellow was soon replaced with dark purple and the alliance shield with the spiked sign of the Twilight's Hammer.
After presenting it to his brothers and sisters of the Clan, It became known as the Twilightning.
In a co-operation with more mechanical-inclined member of the clan. a adjustable side-cart was crafted onto the hog.
== Animal Companions ==
Flarewing:
Before Maz came across 'The Twilightning' his main form of transportation besides enforcing the ritual of earth was the male wyvern named Flarewing. The beast was utterly faithful to Maz'Actaz who had hatched it from a egg he stole from the Stonetalon Mountains back when he assisted a fellow cultist, Te'grom Darkblade in attacking The Earthfury Clan.
Flarewing was killed in Northrend while saving Maz from being assassinated. Bamboo'Chaa had aimed his bow upon Maz when Flarewing came swooping down on the Shadow Hunter who quickly turned and shot the arrow through the Wyvern's heart.
Nihiron:
Nihiron is a young Drake from the Twilight Dragonflight. He has not spoken a word since Morkho had him assigned to Maz, leaving the Troll to see him as stupid and undependable.
== Personal Notes ==
Of Maz'Actaz And Bamboo'Chaa
There are few who have bested the heroic Bamboo'Chaa, Maz'Actaz is one of them, for many a year those two have sought to kill each other but there has never been one true victory for either.
They became each others nemesis after 'Chaa hindered Maz in flooding a troll village.
Maz hates the fact that he is a troll (well since he does not see himself as one he more likely hates having the body of a troll) he hates their savage culture, crude magic and weak minds, hence he had his tusks removed.
== Current Status ==
Alive and serving the Twilight's Hammer.
During the war against the Lich King he wandered around Northrend seeking new recruits to the Twilight's Hammer. One of those recruits, Ceylin awoke his interest with her skill, so he stayed close to her. After admitting their mutual attraction to each other they became lovers.
While Ceylin was simply his student they had to hide their relationship but once she had completed her training and bested the best students of the other teachers and boosted Maz up the cult's ranks they were able to share a cave in peace, Maz loves her deeply and fears to loose her like he lost his brother.
Leading the section they serve in is Highlord Morkho Rockstormer, a ancient, overweight Orc Warlock that Maz hates with a passion but loyalty to the Twilight's Hammer keeps him from killing his leader, he is certain the old bastard will kick the bucket soon enough anyway so he became his majordomo and next in line to lead a large portion of the Twilight's Hammer into a new age of chaos.
== Influence ==
The main RP influence for Maz must be Magneto from the X-Men comics but I would have to say he has a bit of the joker in him too, being mad and all.
