Gru🅱️

INTRODUCTION

Grub is the central character of the story, he is a burrowing creature who lives in The sand-wastes and mostly sustains himself off of worms and dirt. Grub's life changes when he accidentally solves The Great Problem, an ancient manuscript said to contain mighty powers for any individual who could solve it. The tablets were located in The Synagogue of Tears, directly in the middle of The Sand-wastes. Due to his clumsy nature Grub knocked over the sacred tablets which caused its power to be transferred into the nearest living vessel (apparently just breaking the tablets on something achieved the same result as actually deciphering its ancient secrets) Upon this happening, there was a great shaking of the heavens, this alerted The Golden God that the power of The Sacred Texts had been unleashed. No mortal was permitted to possess this much power, it was reserved for divinity. As such, The Golden God vowed to find Grub and either take his power or destroy him trying.

PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS

Standing only 3 feet tall, Grub is the only kind of his species, regardless he is categorized by the large shell on his back, similar to that of an Isopod or Hermit crab. He possesses limbs that are significantly more powerful than what their feeble appearance would suggest. His actual body structure is similar to that of human, yet significantly more hunched over. His facial features are deeply set into his skull to better aid in burrowing, Due to his height and body restrictions, Grub is only capable of speeds comparable to a moderately fearful turtle. However, if put in a life-threatening situation, Grub can channel his energy into a short burst of running speeds of about 20 kilometers per hour.

PERSONALITY

Grub has little interest in anything other than burrowing holes and eating dirt and worms, he possesses minimal yet effective communication skills, this limited vocabulary and general lack of its use can be construed as rudeness. Despite this Grub is capable of limited discourse and even multiple emotions. When he does not need to converse in a recognizable language, Grub mostly talks to himself using grunts and clicking noises. Grub is most happy when able to connect multiple burrows in what he describes as "a super burrow" which is not particularly imaginative but is effective in both communicating the nature of the whole, as well as providing more insight to his limited mental powers.
