Backstory: His father was a officer in the royal guard named Righteous. He was stationed to a village in Zebrica to help keep it from being taken over by one of the counties most brutal warlords, General Maul. Though the year he was stationed there he became liked by the villagers because of his good deeds and help to the village. But one day he helped a beautiful zebra mare with sapphire eyes, named Kenya, from being abducted by some of the generals men which mad her fall for him instantly and he soon fell for her. Seen he made the decision to stay in Zebrica with Kenya and marry her. A year later they had a son they named Zuberi. <br /><br />They loved him dearly and raised him well. He had a happy childhood filled with nothing but joy... but, one day the general mad a move to take the village. His father tried to help keep them back with help of the villagers. but there were too many of them. It didn't take long to take it over and Zuberi's father was overwhelmed by a group of the general's mean and they killed him. Before they took over the village his mother was able to get him out to safety. But they followed them. It didn't take them long to catch up. When they were caught the general's men proceeded to beat them. They soon killed his mother and were about to kill him when he was saved by Zebrican freedom fighters. They took him in and nursed him back to help and looked after him. Soon he wanted to join the fight and he was given training in gorilla and trench warfare. He started to focus his training in close combat with a trench club he got from his old home that belonged to his father and he started to refer to himself as Trench Club. During his first fight he was placed in a trench near a small farming village to watch over.<br /><br /> He thought it would be just a normal patrol but then a group of general Maul's scouts mad there way to the village. His heart started to pound and he clinched his fathers trench club close to him. He new he had to take care of them or they would tell the general that he was the only one there. He proceeded to take them out one by one by getting them along and taking them out with his club. When the generals scouts didn't show up after a while he sent some more to look for them. Again, Trench took them out one by one. When the generals other scouts didn't show up he sent all of his men to the village. Trench thought he was done for for sure but he steeled his nerves and took them out one by one. But one of them was able to stab him in his left hind leg with a rusty blade. With a loud scream he bashed the generals man head in. When he was done he made his way to the generals camp on his bad leg. When he mad it he walked into his tent to face him. <br /><br />When the general saw Trench carrying a club with him and it covered in blood while looking at him with pure hatred in his eyes. The general face formed into a look of complete fear of the sight on his face. He tried to run away but Trench threw his club at him knocking him down. He then made his way over to the cowering general and picked up his club. when he stood over the general, looked down on him with the same never changing look of udder hate he lift up his club and said only one thing to him, "Retribution." and he slammed his club down on his head with all his strength. After he was done he made his way back to the village with the feeling of satisfaction of completing what he felt was his purpose in life. He then felt a tingling on his flank and then a flash of light. On his flank was a cutie mark of a trench club that looked like the one he carried. When he saw it a surge a pride ran thew him and he smiled for the first time in the longest time. He kept that smile as he limped back to the village even thought he was in great pain. When he got back he find out that his leg was too infected to heal. So they had to amputate it.While they did so the smile never left his face. He soon got use to his new leg and learned to fight with it like it was his real one. Few years later Trench helped the freedom fighters until they succeed in there goal in freeing the Zebrica citizens from the warlords. With not having anywhere else to go Trench Club became a mercenary so he could see the world and keep helping others.
