He was later given this same wind fan by Brorc Bronzefang who acquired it as a gift for Greckles, not knowing that it's personal connection to him other than as something Yukiko left in Alivast. Soon after he left, his friends (including Yukiko) caught up with him and they gave him a scroll of meditation exercises used by the clan accompanied by the personal message, "You're one of us."
His casting out was done in the most literal sense as he was blown away from the village by someone using the Wind Fan. As punishment for his transgression of boundaries, Greckles was banished. Their relationship was discovered by a member of the clan named Fuutenbou and was seen as violating cultural norms by the leaders of the clan. She was a peahen kenku who had the " white blessing" and occupied a higher social class than him. His social position became very apparent when he pursued a relationship with Yukiko. He had four friends, Yagiri, Amaji, Tomegi, and Yukiko.Īs part of the Tengu Clan he was given the name Tobikage and was a generally respected, but minor member of the clan due to originally being an outsider. In the clan he learned his stealthy arts, and loved the camaraderie and sense of family the clan provided. Greckles fan art by has revealed little about his background, but has revealed that he was is originally from Tengamashima Island (the main island of the Eastern Isles), but grew up in in a mountainous region called Agakisan outside a village called Sakuya-cho when was adopted into the Tengu Clan that lived in the mountains. Unfortunately, he is also painfully inexperienced in dealing with his newfound zeal, often badgering people of the cloth or even Solly about how they knew it was "time" to serve. In prayer, he expounded upon his belief, believing that all of the problems and sufferings he has felt in his life and the brief encounters he had with the gods, were signs of his favor and of his place in his plans. He has recently shown an interest in the worship of Orun, even asking some United Clergy deserters to join in their prayers and expressing how his association with Solly had sparked his interest. He does chafe at some of the class and racial-based norms many in the city have brought from less cosmopolitan cultures, especially when they interfere with someone's freedom of choice. He has revealed that his behavior that many regard as standoffish is rooted in a deep love for his new home in Alivast and he is willing to go to great lengths to protect it. He has improved some as he has learned that his selfish actions have sometimes hampered developing closer relationships. By refusing to entertain any other interpretations of other's motivations some of his choices have tainted future interactions with certain groups and high-profile individuals. This tendency to act on slights, real or perceived, stems from Greckles's lack of empathy towards people with different perspectives. This has led to some awkward situations when the party had already de-escalated a conflict with diplomacy prior to his remarks. On more than one occasion he has made it a point to get the final world against someone who he believes did him wrong.
Greckles's deep pride makes him prickly when he thinks someone has slighted him.
He has revealed to Remy that he was banished from his Tengu Clan, losing the only home he ever knew, putting him on the wanderer's path.Įvidence for Greckels's homesickness are a few open expressions of joy and reverence when reconnecting with aspects of his culture, from the simple joy of an Eastern delicacy to the meticulous care he takes when handling Eastern crafts. Underneath this lofty facade there is an obvious desire to see his homeland once more. He keeps a similar social distance, appearing generally friendly but with a certain sense of aloofness. Greckles tends to keep to himself, and frequently stays apart from the group and moves in stealth when they are traveling. "Everyone can die, and it doesn't have to be in combat." ~Greckles
