History
Tallug was born in the later years of the God Wars to a Bandosian warrior of the name Grishnakh. It is noted that Tallug had a human mother who's name was lost to the ages. During his birthing his mother was lost unable to surive the pregnancy even though Tallug was much smaller than other orks being from a human mother and often mistaken as a goblin. Without a mother to raise him and typical Bandosian ways, Tallug was raised in a sort of tribal nursery where all the children would be cared for until an appropriate age to be taught combat.

At the age of seven Tallug was put into training to fight in the God wars. Drilled, beaten, and bred for war he was put into the ranks of Bandos finest infantrymen at the ripe old age of seventeen. He partook in many battles, his quick wits and smart thinking with a combination of brawn keeping him alive. Often getting into trouble with his commander for making plans which was a cardinal sin in Bandosian culture he challenged and killed his squad leader in honorable combat. Assuming control of his squad Tallug and his men fought in many battles throughout the wars up to and including the battle of the godsword.

In the temple that is now known as the "Godwars dungeon" Tallug saw many things. Beautiful creatures of Armadyl, majestic soldiers of Saradomin, tainted and demonic forces of Zamorak, and the most awe-insipiring of all, Nex. Tallug was able to survive the furies of Nex, not being in the frontlines himself he witnessed the forces of Armadyl, Zamorak, Saradomin, and Bandos all working together to drive Zaros' forces back. Not shortly after, however, things went back to the norm after sealing Nex away. God against god, creature against creature, resuming the battle for the blade that could slay a god. As the battle raged on the forces of Guthix joined the fray as their master awoke from his long slumber. In the coming fight the combatants were frozen, ending the war that threatened to destroy the world.

Thousands of years later in the Fifth age due to tectonic movement on Gielinor the massive dungeon thawed out, allowing the battles to rage on once more. Pulled back into the battle again, Tallug fought against the other god's forces, still driving towards obtaining the Godsword for the glory of Bandos. Through the still-raging battle Tallug had begun to notice strange knights, they were the contingent of knights accompanying Sir Gerry. Taken by curiosity tallug sought to find where the knights came from, eventually making his way up to the surface. Having made it to the surface Tallug was caught in a blizzard, unable to find his way back to the cavern in the storm he wandered south to warmer climates

. As he ventured farther south he, came across Troll Country who was warring with Burthorpe. Having lost his way back and seeing that there were no obvious signs of the Godwars Tallug took up the profession of being a mercenary serving for whoever could offer the most. After brief dealings with the imperial guard against the trolls Tallug set out for better prospects with a fair bit of gold and a runty little troll known as Granite.

Tallug now roams the world as a mercenary for hire mostly and fancies himself a diplomat for Bandosian races. He also serves with The Chosen Battalion as a grunt, aiming to increase Bandosian influence. As of late Tallug is also campaigning for control of Asgarnia's military or possibly being king all together.
