Biography
The Small Lord
Grandy's real name is Lord Grandeivous, son of a powerful and feared man which only thought about money, even after Grandy's birth, he only thought in Grandy as someone who'd take his imperium and perpetue it. A few years after Grandy was born, his mother became terribly ill. The closest hospital was recently destroyed (thanks to Grandy's dad, who wanted the terraim to construct a mall) and the local doctor couldn't do much for the poor woman. She died few weeks before the illness got her, though Grandy was too small to remember anything. His father was never home, so Grandy had to find another paternal figure, thus he met a merchant, MooseTroop11, who claimed to have know his great grandfather. Grandy was too young to questionate how could anyone be so old, but he saw in the merchant a friend and someone he could trust in.
The Homeless Peddler
As the years passed, Grandy started to see even less of his father, the later stoped even appearing in his birthday, or would only come at late of night and go away before the sun rise.
One day, Grandy's father questioned who was that merchant that lived near the house. He and the merchant already knew each other(MooseTroop had been watching over the familly tree ever since Grandy's great granfather, although his father had, still young, kicked him away from the home), but to him it was as important as the buttler he was asking now.
Upon discovering that he was MooseTroop, and remembering about him, he prohibited Grandy to ever talk with MooseTroop again (he remembered MooseTroop usually talk about peace and iguality, and those are definatelly not two things his son needed to know if he was going to take care of his imperium).
This resulted in a fervorous discussion, in which Grandy ran away from home, swearing never to be alike his dad.
It must be said, though, that this young Grandy, or rather, Grandeivous, wasn't like nowadays Grandy at all. To begin, he was considarebly fat, a life as a rich kid will do you that, secondly, he whore noble clothes, thirth, his hair was divided in half, not at all as his hair nowadays, and lastly, his hair was black, not green (SHOCK!).
Most of these details were changed as soon as he started living in the streets, after a few weeks with no food at all, he was considerably slimmer, the noble cloths, even if pretty, soon became rags, making him buy, with the money he got peddling, the cheapest shirt in the store, his hair, even if now spiked, continued black for a while (SHOCK!). Eventually, Grandy noticed that he wasn't going to survive much more by peddling, so he passed on to thievery...
The Green Caped Thief
...only to discover that bad luck is limitless. The first person he tried to steal from was a thief himself, Okneoth was his name, he and his gang were going to teach Grandy a lesson for his audacy. That's when Grandy discovered a great ability of his: He can run. Fast.
Although the discover was welcome, the rejoicing didn't last long, as after 10 seconds of perseguition, he collapsed and fainted of hunger. Okneoth, feeling piety on the deplorable state of Grandy, took him to his hideout and feed him. He then, took Grandy under his wing, teaching him on how to steal.
Okneoth, it should be said, was an elf, a green haired elf, with a long, green elvish cape.
Life was good in the hideout, after the initial shock, Grandy quickly found his place amongst the gang. One day, though, Grandy was caught while stealing, and was shot in the back.
His condition was getting worse, and there was no hospitals nearby (How many malls can a man possibilly need, anyway?!) Okneoth, then, used an antique elven magic. As you may know, elfs have a long live, and that's because they have a great ammount of vital energy. What Okneoth's spell did was to pass part of his vital energy to Grandy.
Thus, three things happened:
Okneoth was now mortal, as he sacrificed a great ammount of energy. As he was now weaker, his hair changed of a strong green to a yellow-ish green.
And, Grandy's hair became green. (SHOCK! o wait, that's how it's supposed to be)
In that night, Okneoth also gave Grandy his green cape. Grandy had already heard about magic elven artifacts from the gang.
"Will it protect me from bullets? Will it prevent me from getting sick?" Okneoth blinked. "No, it'll protect you from the cold, and yes, it'll prevent you from getting sick."
Grandy understood that the elf had sacrificed his immortality, from now on, the elf was just like any 19 years-old human. Since then, Grandy considered the elf as a big brother, although he never openly said that.
Projects
Grandy has tried -and failed- to do a couple of projects, sometimes for lack of time, sometimes for lack of interest (He is, after all, self-proclamed lazy and procrastinator) a list of projects, in cronological order, goes below:
Heroes of Gaia
Was planned to be a serious game, although it never got past the first map. The history was clichéd and flawed, thus was soon discarted.
Pub Tales
Based of in the Charas Pub thread, it would be basically a RPG version of the history, though, again, it was never completed.
Honor Amongst Thieves
The latest and current project, featuring Grandy himself as the protagonist. It's currenty on a hiatus.
Pablo
Pablo is Grandy's alther ego. He was created in a joke, in which Midnight threatened Grandy, and he, with nowhere to hide, proceeded to put a hood, sunglasses, a fake mustache (which color differs from his hair), took off his bandanna, and changed his name to Pablo. Pablo has since turned in a internal joke.
