From Left to Right:
Mau'lo, Jorkog, Gorgun, Ragnor and Mokk.
Within the Hoarfrost Vale, a low altitude region of mountains and forested wilderness that endures extended—almost perpetual—winters, the Highland Orcs thrive. Adapted to the fierce conditions of the winter wonderland, they are hardy and strong, and generally among the largest orcs (in size and raw strength) to be found throughout The World.
Ragnor, a Midlands Orc warrior, found himself among the Highland orcs after his mother's tribe was killed by Wildmen: humans seemingly driven feral through centuries of living within the dangerous and deadly wilderness of the Eastern Lawless Lands. His mother's final words revealing his right to the throne of one of the major Kingdoms through his mixed blood, Ragnor seeks to establish his claim with the aid of his uncle, Raider Warleader Gorgun. Were he fighting for ascension into a position of Orcish leadership, his trials would have been different, but Ragnor's quest to become leader of a human-led Kingdom left uncertainty within the Highland Orc tribe's ranks.
Deciding that a Rite of Representation would be most suited for the young Orc half-blood, Gorgun approached Ragnor in the middle of the night, to lay out his challenge: demonstrate himself worthy of representing orcs in a strong, enduring and honorable way, and Ragnor would have the support of the Highland Raiders. Accepting this, Ragnor's shelter was soon filled with the highest ranking members of Gorgun's Raiders, among whom were Mau'lo, a Maali Ogre Shaman, and Mokk, Gorgun's son and Lance Leader to one of the Raiders' subdivisions.
The match was segmented, with Ragnor given opportunity to recover by his larger and more experienced challenger, yet this forced him to endure many moments of pain and discomfort as he was manhandled by his superior foe. While he, Gorgun, and the watching lieutenants nevertheless enjoyed the demonstration of orcish might, Ragnor's perseverance eventually left him with the right to lead, as he had proved himself stronger than the stereotypical preconception of Midland orcs' softness due to mixing with human-kind. Proud that any orc, much more a Midlands' half-blood, would demonstrate such tenacity and resiliency, Gorgun's fondness for his nephew grew, and Ragnor became an honorary member of the Raiders. Eventually he would rise to Lance Leader, as he would help protect the tribe from bands of Wildmen, eventually leading a charge to end the threat once and for all. His success lent further credibility to his claim as an honorable heir to one of the human Kingdom's thrones, and he would soon afterwards become heralded as a Prince of the Realm, and a champion to the orcish cause.

Heh, many thanks buddy! And I approve of curiosity! I'm also making an assumption that you're asking me what format I myself like the most, to make my stories, so in that case, here's what I got for ya':
Answer #1: If I could make a video game that I could place all my world building into, and let players explore on their own, and enjoy the world based on their own actions, I'd totally do that first and foremost. Because I myself like roleplaying, and roleplaying through the medium of video games is, I think, the pinnacle of what we can strive for when it comes to storytelling, because any story would inherently become the player's story. If there were a game that was capable of being 100% generated along whatever story path you wanted as the player, that game would be immersive fantasy at its peak. Such a game doesn't exist however, so the closest we got is the sort of sandbox style games, visual novels and roleplaying ala text adventures.
Answer #2: Movies! Not being able to make video games in the way I want (lack of time, mainly), I'd settle for a short movie that tells the story and draws the characters closer to us as viewers by showing their actions in real time. Plus moving muscle is mucho appealing to see.
Answer #3: Novels! But, again, I don't really have the time to write novels.
Answer #4: Where I'm at now. A combination of Renders, with short stories attached to them. That's about the best I can do. I've got some pretty huge Google Documents currently, which outline character stories, world events, a geographic and political map of The World (which is literally called The World, by the way, people living in this fantasy World are very direct, and don't need complicated arcane fantasy worlds for their planet and such), and some other statistics that help me understand what I'm working with. With this template, I can craft characters and stories very easily, always having times, places, events and people to connect the dots to. It's about as good as I got, I'd say!

Tis an interesting thought! One that my warrior orc in Skyrim has learned quickly—in my fantasy World, it ain't much different! Orcs can become werewolves just like humans; they're grow a bit hairier, have a bit of a doggish odor, and when they transform they have a more broad look to them in werewolf form compared to human werewolves, and some tusks!
Fantastic to hear that from ya' buddy!! I certainly bashed down all the barriers that have been getting in my way, to put out one good, solid, approve-worthy bearhug render out! And I'll be doing more from now on, I swear! The days of character creation are behind me, finally, and these burly macho dudes are finally gonna start doing things!!
YESIKNOWANDTHEREWILLBEONEISWEAR!
...I mean, ho yeah buddy, I'm totally absolutely on the same page as ya'! You've been around, Wolf-Moon! You've got pages here, there and everywhere, and I'm no stranger to your favorites' gallery or even Youtube Likes, helping provide me with all kind of inspiration! At least, that's what I'll call it.
But legitimately, the concept of the superhero, and especially the superhero bearhug, is something that's probably been ingrained in my brain since I first saw the Spider-man TV cartoon in the early 90s or whatever. Before then, it was old movies and shows and such, and my appeal for muscle art definitely grew with the X-Men animated show.
So YES. I will be returning to the Superhero Universe, and I will involve some characters into storylines that will contain bearhugs. Right now Bjorn is sort of still the main character, but I want to try and involve one or two of the MAWrestling crew in superhero exploits as well...unless worst comes to not-really-all-that-bad-worst and I have to make a new character or two (I'd like to have at least one anthropomorphic superhero and villain outside of MAWrestling, but we'll see—I might actually hit you up on that later for your opinion and thoughts).
Many cheers for the comment and compliment buddy! You're always welcome around these parts, for sure!
ps., if massive muscles, rampant wrestling, and bone-crushing bearhugs are your thing, you're welcome around these parts for sure too.
pps., if those things aren't your thing, you're welcome around these parts for sure too anyways. Get some coffee or tea or something, stay a while and share your thoughts!

Ooooh maaan, thanks Sharlin!!! I sure do appreciate it, and am super glad you like it! Hot and your kinda hold are pretty synonymous with what I'm aiming for, both here, and with my upcoming renders. So hopefully there's plenty more of it for you and others to enjoy!
And thanks on the writing subject! Like I mention occasionally, I've got a huge Google Doc that covers histories, backgrounds, stories and characters for everyone in the Fantasy Universe, so I knew what was happening, but wrote up that brief story to provide details while the render was being uploaded. Good to know I came at it from the right angle, and hopefully other short stories for other scenes involving other characters will be of similar interest and quality!
