Grin the Ranger

Grin the Ranger

The name Grin that was given to me by my absent father during my birth is his nickname. He is known as a merciless man with no regards for lives of the others. Despite his cruelty his squadron adores him as their commander and chief. I am sure this is duo to the fact that he fights with them. Even thou he was not at home during my uprising I have heard a lot of stories of him running into the thick of combat to save his men. All of his man agree and so do I, he a strict and cruel commander but he loves his soldiers and he values them a lot.
Few of his soldiers that he sent home to take care of my training told me that I look a lot like him, and some said that I act like him also. I took this as compliment.

I am 6 feet tall and I would not say that I am muscular but also I would not consider myself a twig. The long black hair that I have is always tied into a two tails, one over another merging together. Mother thought me this when she saw that my hair is blocking my vision when shooting. She was very happy when she noticed that I continued to tie my hair that way. She said that the girls will be able to see my green eyes that way as they come into a contrast with my darker tan.

My title, Ranger, was firstly used by my mentor, and an ex right hand of my father Godrick. He is an old man that gave me lessons on tactics, archery, leadership, weapon and hand to hand combat, diplomacy or as he said everything that successor of my father would need to know. He may not admit it but I am sure saw a pride in his eyes when he learned that I excel in archery and he was more than eager to spent a lot more time with me in practice. We went hunting a lot and he repeated to me several times that I have a knack for sneaking and picking off unsuspecting targets from range. I loved our hunting trips. Last time we have gone hunting he gave me a black bow, a gift from your father, he said to me. When I fired it I noticed that the string wasn`t producing any sounds and the bow itself was lighter than expected. During this trip he had a lot of questions for me about my intents in the future. I told him of my plan to assemble my own team of men and after that I would go to war. Godrick wholeheartedly agreed with me and told me that I could be a great asset to any army as I am quite good at guerrilla warfare. He advised me to find druids as they could teach me how to truly understand nature and make it work in my advantage. He also said that some of them are great healers and if could I should learn that skill also. After that trip while we were coming back home he said that my training with him was done and that I should be off to find my own path as he cannot teach me anything anymore. He gave me his hunting knife wished me luck and ran off.
Now equipped with a black bow and a hunting knife I am off to find druids o tech me how to understand and communicate with nature and perhaps a bit off healing. I also hope that I will find people along the way who are trust worthy and willing to fight beside me.
