[QUOTE="JustinCase, post: 7935692, member: 6776182"] Alright, I added a bio to Grimnir in the post above. I'll add it here too, so [USER=6749263]@Envisioner[/USER] can give feedback on it: "I was born on a ship somewhere on the Sea of Swords, my birth ushered in by a massive storm as my stubborn mother, captain of The Howling Hound, had refused to stop sailing during pregnancy. My father never told me the details, but I survived and she did not. For decades that ship was my home as I grew up and became a member of the crew, part of the influential Ship Kurth from the northern harbor town of Luskan. Until a few years ago, when I forgot my customary sacrifice to Umberlee for safe travels at sea and the Queen of the Depths took down The Howling Hound and her entire crew into her unfathomable realm below the surface. I should have drowned that day, and I am not convinced I didn't. Somehow I washed up on the shores of a tiny island, where before a passing ship rescued me I discovered that Umberlee had chosen me to become her servant. She had granted me magical powers over sea and storm, and warned me that only by her will did I continue to live. You cannot imagine the terror that filled me as I realized that such a notoriously fickle and angry Goddess had claimed my soul, but in time I found that she is like the sea itself; cold and demanding one moment, forgiving and generous the next. If my job was to inform people that offering a thing of importance may hold off Umberlee's wrath and see the seas as I do, I could do a lot worse. And so I have provided my clerical services to various Kurth ships over the years, and appeased my Queen when all seemed lost. Recently, however, I have been dreaming of drowning again, of being swallowed by cold deep waters along with all around me, and Umberlee forgive me but I cannot help but get as far away from the ocean as I can until her anger, whatever may have caused it, has died down again..."
