Bosric

Name
Bosric Valeborough

Physical Traits (Human Form)
Bosric is a physically fit male Human, often found clad in a leather armor or a choice suit of trusty chain, splint or scale mail.

One of the first and most distinct things about Bosric's appearance is his eyepatch. This Gilnean appears to have lost an eye, the scaring upon his right cheek and that which runs across his brow makes this fact clear. There are other scars elsewhere, none however as dire as that which cost him his eye.

There are two items Bosric is never without. The first is his satchel, a thin leather bag that hangs at his right side, its strap wrapped around his torso. The other is his rifle, a trusty Gilnean firearm that rest in a light holster that also rests strapped to his torso. Both these straps forming a cross of leather across Bosric's chest.

Physical Traits (Worgen Form)
Bestial, savage, monsterous. What to be expected from the appearance of a Worgen.

There is little unqiue in his appearance as a Worgen that casts him out amongst others, save for the lack of his right eye and the patch that covers it.

Just like as a Human, Bosric carries with him his satchel and rifle and is clad in his leather armor.

Family

Background
Born and raised a lonely child without siblings within the Gilnean village of Stormglen to a loving mother and father, Bosric lived a fufilling and happy childhood. By the age of ten his father, Marcus, began teaching young Bosric how to wield a rifle, the young Bosric wishing to follow in the shoes of the man he looked up to.

By fifteen, Bosric's skill with a rifle almost surpassed his father and on his sixteenth birthday the boy made his first kill, a Stag in the Northgate Woods. For the following seven years, Bosric would help his father out hunting, for furs to sell and food for themselves. One fateful day however, a hunt turned sour..

Whilst out hunting Stag in the Northgate Woods, Bosric and his father Marcus were set upon by an Ettin. The two battle the creature for some time untill the creature finally fell, before it succumbed to its wounds however it made one last swing against the pair with its mighty club, striking Marcus and knocking him away to a nearby tree. Bosric ran to his father only to find the blow to have been fatal, his father slain.

News of Marcus' death threw Bosric's mother, Valarie into a depression. A month passing untill the grief, with no sign of subdueing, claimed her. Taking her own life.

Without mother or father, Bosric was left alone in the world. Leaving the village of Stormglen, he headed towards the City of Gilneas in search of work. In the years that followed Bosric made a small handful of friends yet never truely settled down, incapable of holding a job for too long. He finally decided to follow in his father's footsteps and take upon the life of a hunter. Rather than just Stags and Foxes however, Bosric would hunt something much larger, a decision fueled by his loathing for the gargantuan creatures and lust for vengenace..

Ettin.

He gathered a band, a trio of capable Gilnean men and women to form a hunting group. Amanda Gray, Michael Kessington and Andrew Black. Ettinbane was born.

The four all brought unique skills to the group. Bosric brought his skills with a rifle, Amanda brought her ability to make cunning and effective traps, Michael his nack for stealth and guile and Andrew his swordarm. Together they were an effective Ettin slaying machine and other the years to come would bring down many Ettin's.

Then the Worgen came.

For a week Bosric and the others had been tracking a rampaging Ettin, finally finding the creature yet beaten to the prize. The Ettin was dead, but not slain by rifle or sworn. Its thick hide was shredded by claws, mauled by powerful jaws, before Ettinbane new it they were set upon by an enemy they had never faced before.

Michael fell first, torn asunder by these feral beasts. Then Andrew. Bosric and Amanda stood their ground, defiant to the end untill they fell, the last thing Bosric remembering being the claws of a Worgen ripping through the flesh of his back before the world faded to black.

Bosric awoke some time later, no longer within the woods but instead on a ship. A familiar face, Amanda, smiling down at him. She explained what had happened, explained how he was trapped in an unconcious state for some time. She told him of the Worgen, of the Forsaken, of the fall of Gilneas and explained the pressence of the tall purple skinned Elves whose ship they were upon.

The news hit him hard, more so when Amanda explained what he now was. That he, like herself, were afflicted with the curse of the Worgen.

Upon arriving at Teldrassil, having left Gilneas behind, Bosric and Amanda went their seperate ways. Amanda wished to aid the Kal'dorei that had saved them yet Bosric, thankful for what they had done, instead wished to journey back to the Eastern Kingdoms and the human kingdom of Stormwind.

Gear
Deadeye Repeater Rifle - A rifle Bosric purchased during a visit to Ironforge. The Deadeye Repeater Rifle is a combination of Dwarven and Gnomish ingenuity. Rather than having to load every individual shot after firing like most rifles the repeater rifle employs a system where ammunition is held within a five round cartridge that is instead attached to the rifle. Reloading simply involves removing the spent cartridge and replacing it with another greatly reducing the time it takes to reload.

Ammunition Belts - Bosric wears two ammunition belts, each belt carrying three cartridges for his Deadeye Repeater. The belt around his waist holds cartridges with simple iron rounds manufactured to fragmentate within the target. The other holds mithril rounds that have been magically enchanted to burst into flame once fired and explode on impact.

Ettin-Hide Leather - Bosric wears this armor almost all the time. Crafted from Ettin hide by himself, the armor is flexible and durable. The armor is also enchanted, giving Bosric a resistance to the effects of dark magics such as Necromancy, demon magic or shadow magic.

Silver Hipflask - Allways on his person and allways containing whiskey, Bosric is never without this hipflask, once his father's. These days, following the passing of Bielle, it sees more use than ever before and is emptied on a daily basis.

Silver Necklace - Around Bosric's neck is a silver chain necklace from which hangs a single ring. He is always seen wearing this necklace, rolling the ring that hangs upon it between his finger when he sits alone drinking his sorrows away.

Current Status
Bosric, again, has not been seen for some time. Following the passing of Bielle, the Gilnean fell into a deep depression, smoking and drinking heavily he was spiraling out of control. His grief vented not through tears but through contempt for everything and everyone. Becoming violent and unstable Bosric would often end up in bar fights or scraps in the middle of the street just through someone looking at him in a way he didn't appreciate.
