Grim, a changeling who has taken the form of a bugbear, stands at an imposing height of seven feet, his fur a dark mottled gray, with piercing yellow eyes that seem to glow with an inner fire. At the age of 24, he bears the scars of his tumultuous past, both physically and mentally. His muscular frame is clad in a mishmash of leather armor, patched and worn from countless battles, yet it moves with him as if it were a second skin. A flame tongue longsword, a gift from his best friend, hangs at his waist, its hilt wrapped in worn leather, and a forgework shield is strapped to his back, its surface etched with symbols of luck and protection—a testament to his blessing by Tymora, the goddess of luck during his harrowing escape from the Tyrants, a criminal organization known for their mastery in information trade, forgery, and identity fraud, primarily run by changelings like himself.

Grim's journey began in the shadows, trained by the Tyrants in the art of deception and combat. His life took a drastic turn when he attempted to escape their clutches, driven by a burning desire for freedom and a life beyond the criminal underworld. However, his escape was marred by the loss of his best friend, who sacrificed himself to ensure Grim's freedom, gifting him his prized possessions in their final moments. Now, Grim roams the world, seeking to dismantle the Tyrants from within, driven by vengeance and the hope of freeing others from their grasp.

His unique trait is a nervous habit of tapping his claws rhythmically against any surface when deep in thought, a sound that echoes like a ticking clock, reminding him of the time he lost and the time he has left to make a difference. Despite his rough exterior and the path of a fighter and rogue he treads, Grim's heart is touched by the luck bestowed upon him by Tymora, guiding him through the dark alleys of his life with a flicker of hope that he might one day bring down the Tyrants and honor his friend's sacrifice.
