Blood Knight - He possesses a hideous strength and is highly skilled in martial combat.
[*]Personality: Cruel and relentless, Grothma lives for battle. He finds no joy in life when not snuffing it out in others. Over the years he has been many things. He lived the life of a hermit for a time, seeking wisdom in books, but found only disappointment. He turned to pleasure then, but every sip of wine seemed to taste of ash. This has not stopped him from drowning or karking away his sorrows, but the fix is only temporary. Always burns the longing for the din of battle. He is cunning to an extent, but will almost always favor the attack. He is known for his heedlessness of the lives of those under his command. So long as they win, he doesn't care what it costs.
COMBAT INFORMATION
- Weapons of Choice: Shock whip, therm-ax
- Combat Function: Single combat is the pinnacle of existence. What can be greater than to slay a foe hand-to-hand? Grothma fights with whip and ax, though any weapon will do in a pinch. His raw strength is a terror to behold.
The kiss of the lash can turn even good men cruel.
Once, Grothma bore a different name. It is dead now, as dead as the Cragmoloid who bore it. His species is a gentle one. Kindly and good natured. When captured by Sith slavers, all of that soon left him. They pried it from him, just as they pried away his tusks to sell on the market. Bought by some Atrisian and ground up into an aphrodisiac.
The lashes cut deep, but watching his pride sold away cut deeper still. When the scars healed, they did not heal well. Ugly things. Fifty at least.
They put him in the arena because of his size. It warped him. The only pleasure he found, the only pride he could claim, was in taking the pride of others and leaving them in the sand. He became famous in many circles, beaten only by a hulk of a Rahgot, but spared by the favor of the crowd.
His fame drew Gorba the Hutt's attention and the Bareesh Kajidic purchased Grothma. Gorba saw more use to the Cragmoloid than spilling blood on the sands. He granted Grothma his freedom and thereby won the behemoth's loyalty.
Grothma swiftly rose through the ranks to become the general of Gorba's forces.
