Grinnell is a seasoned Venator for the Venari organization. Infected with the Venari strain of lycanthropy as a youth, he has trained his whole life in the Conclave to hunt monsters. As an older Venator, he has earned a degree of clout among his peers, but is often a source of controversy as a result of his loud, stubborn personality.

He is regarded as one of the last descendants of the Aennah bloodline, turned by Maior Triumvirate Piers. Among the Venari he is colloquially known as Griffin Bait, but in his service has earned the titles of the Ziescyb Sentry and the First Shadow of Winter's Crest.


Appearance

Grinnell is a man of short stature -- a unique trait among Venari. Having taken his abdication as a promising young teen, he would never grow again. Like all other Venari, however, he is some variety of human with blackened sclera around his irises and gold eyes. Bearing dark hair and angular features, he generally looks a combination of amused and disgruntled.

He takes his appearance and personal grooming very seriously. Grinnell keeps his face shaved and his hair parted and trimmed. It is just long enough on the top to pull back when necessary, though it is generally parted and loose. Both of his ears are randomly pierced, a rare form of self-expression among Venari -- which he is sure to take out before working a job.

Besides his small stature, he can be easily identified by the scar crossing diagonally across his face from his left eye to the right side of his chin.

Skills and Abilities

Stealth, forethought, and dexterity are among Grinnell's personal strengths. Intelligent enough to assess situations and determine his personal capabilities, he makes a strong scout and support. While he can work alone perfectly fine, he does best in a team.

Personality

Not to be judged by his compact size, Grinnell lives loudly. He shirks responsibility, heckles his fellow Venari, and has a wicked mean streak. He is spiteful, vindictive, proud, and vain, always conscious of his appearance and how he is perceived. His fuse is short and his temper loud, but generally brief.

On the other side of the same coin is a man who is deeply devoted, driven, and caring. In the Conclave, he loves a good joke and makes friends easily. He is, at his very core, a Venari, and lives and breathes his organization's tenets.
