Character Insight #4: Shrapnel
Full Name: Shrapnel Cindergear Gender: Female (she/her) Race: Dwarf Class: Warrior Specialization: Fury Orientation: Pansexual Relatives: No Known Relatives Age: (approximately) 140 Height: 4'4 Voice reference: In-game player character female Dwarf Theme: Gasoline - Halsey
[BACKSTORY] Shrapnel was born into the thriving Dwarven culture in Ironforge to a family obsessed with machinery and tinkering. Naturally, they worked closely alongside the gnomes, but Shrapnel's kin had impressive engineering feats of their own as well. A lot of them even became "steam warriors," AKA soldiers in mechsuits or in general machinery-made armor, and Shrapnel was one of them. She didn't necessarily mind fighting against the Horde or even any Dun Morogh-specific threats, but those were small compared to the war she was sent into later.
After the defeat of Garrosh Hellscream in his own city, he was taken to Pandaria to stand trial, however managed to escape to an alternate timeline of Draenor. There, he started the Iron Horde, and them and the return of the galactical demonic race known as the Burning Legion quickly became a threat to Azeroth. The Alliance and the Horde both sent soldiers aplenty in order to help deal with this threat, and Shrapnel was one of them. She was stationed in Ashran but on many occasions had been tasked alongside her fleet to tread into the dangers of Tanaan Jungle, but along the way, they were ambushed by orcs of the Iron Horde. Many of them, including Shrapnel, were taken captive and thrown into a cell to be used as gladiators for the purpose of entertainment.
Shrapnel's life became pure hell. As a gladiator, she was forced to tear through a multitude of different types of people--fellow ex-soldiers, unlucky Iron Horde prisoners, Draenei captives--in order to survive. She became known as one of the most infamous gladiators in the ring, but she was far from enjoying it. It was more of a primal instinct. She had to do what it took to live through it.
In the end, Shrapnel and any remaining gladiators were liberated and sent back home. Shrapnel would never sign up for anything combat-oriented ever again, and still holds a severe fear of fighting. She and other members of her family work alongside the Gnomes on the Deeprun Tram, Shrapnel's role being dubbed "The Conductor" as she often accompanies the tram on its trips in order to make sure it's running alright. Now, she aims to remove herself from any gladiator-related titles she may have once gained, and instead live a much more peaceful life in a world of gadgets and gears that aren't so scarily unpredictable.
[THOUGHTS] Shrapnel is a character that's only been on screen.. what, I think once or twice? So she hasn't got a whole lot going for her yet, but I do love her. She's friendly and jovial like most Dwarves but holds some baggage, and I'm glad to have had a chance to talk about her backstory a bit!
