Orange Oranje Jr (OJ)

Share

Abraham Oranje was a fruit farmer on the planet known as Alckup-2 who was known for his extremely delicious fruits, mostly oranges. He had hoped to start a family with his beloved wife but plagued with his inability to have children it was not a foreseeable future. His wife on the other hand, the witch named Harriet Oranje, had come up with a plan to finally start the family they had both dreamed of. By giving life to oranges.

Birthed from the fruit farm of his father and given life by his witch mother, Orange Oranje Jr is the oldest of his 13 brothers and sisters by 1 second. Orange was always surrounded by magic, often seen being taught by his mom the arcane arts. Though his brothers and sisters cared little for magic Oranje was beyond fascinated by it. The more he aged the more he yearned to learn more magic. His dream of becoming a wizard was only rivaled by his other dream of becoming an adventureror. He read many stories of famous adventurerors like The Ghost From The South, Zytinn The Black Knight, and Great Scott the first adventureror and first to ever find the Strangely Weird. The Strangely Weird, and book filled with nothing but magic from all corners of the universe. It hasn't been found in nearly 3 centuries. Only the bravest of the brave have ever sought after it and even then very few have ever found it. What a dream it would be to find it, the fame, the glory, Oranje would be a hero. But what a silly dream it is.

In his early adult years to took up adventures call, hunting down artifacts and facing dangerous monsters from caves to planets to even a different dimension. But one day he found something he'd never thought he could find. A map to the Strangely Weird, the very book that turns mere adventurerors to god like heros. Oranje celebrated his find with his family, to find so much as a clue to the book's location was considered a great achievement. With one final goodbye to his parents and siblings he set off on the adventure of a life time.

During his search for the Strangely Weird he encountered many like him, adventurerors who's minds were set on finding the legendary book, like Skinny, a full bald feline. The one person who managed to snatch half his map, thus began a long rivalry with the hairless feline. It was a race to find the book, no way would Oranje let his prize be taken by some wrinkly thief. Where ever Oranje would go he'd find Skinny, and vice versa. Their heated rivalry was cut short one day when they both found themselves escaping the cold clutches of death. In that moment they both found that they didn't need to be enemies nor did their adventure have to be so agonizing. Through stories of youth and a delicious meal they became the best of friends, a Fruit and a Cat. In less than year they found it, the book, hidden away deep inside of a long abandoned planet. They celebrated, hugged, high fives screams of victory. Pure joy flooded the hearts of these two brave adventurerors. However unknowingly to them the book was not the only thing hidden away in this planet. A Cyclops sealed away in a tomb made of rock, the last of a power hungry race of warlocks. With their capture of the Strangely Weird they had awakened a being who's lust for magic was unparalleled. Upon reaching the surface, Oranje and Skinny as well of some friends they made along their adventure, had started a party amongst themselves. Quickly though, things spiraled, as the Cyclops emerged from the earth, immediately demanding what was rightfully his. Oranje and his companions stood their ground, refusing to hand over the book they had spent so long searching for. And so a battle began, magic versus magic, a fight against an enemy more powerful than any they had previously encountered, Oranje even managed to scar the warlock with a lucky strike to its face. That was not enough to beat it and one by one each adventureror was defeated till only Oranje and Skinny had remained. The cyclops wasted no time in beating the two, this warlock was much too strong. Oranje lay defeated, unable to fight back against the Cyclops' killing blow. In an act of desperation to save his friends, Skinny had leaped upon the back of the cyclops and casted a safety rune around his friends before shouting the most devastating magic words he could remember from the book. In an instant Skinny became a living nuke, sacrificing himself and putting down the cyclops. When the smoke cleared Oranje jumped up and quickly trapped the cyclops in a cube of rock. Finding only the skeletal remains of his furless companion Oranje held what was left of Skinny against him and said "Thank you, my friend."

Oranje had returned home. The book had gifted him a floating castle where Oranje would spend his days living. Alone, depressed and blaming himself for the death of Skinny, Oranje had realized that the most powerful book ever created was not all that was chalked up to be. He retired from adventuring as nothing could top finding the Strangely Weird and his interest for magic slowly faded. A friend of Oranje, Trevor Harkins had suggested he settle down and start a family. Oranje however, had other plans, understanding that the Strangely Weird was no toy and that too much use of it could turn him into a cyclops he hid the book away, as well as the trapped cyclops, in his castle. Oranje would make sure no one ever got the book again but there was no way he could do it alone. Oranje went to the internet, offering a free home to those that would be his castle mates but only to those he would deem the worthy. Now, Oranje shares his castle with geniuses, brutes, soldiers and magicians while they are unaware that the true reason they live there is to guard the most powerful book ever made.

Oranje is Strangely Weird.
