Grievous was the first construct created by Absinthe. He is the General of her Gilded Legion and the First Prime of the Warforged, though he is not actually one. Over his years of service to Absinthe, he has undergone extensive augmentation. Superficially, he is a 6 ft tall, 200 lbs man, with ebony hair, pale skin, and voilet eyes. He appears to wear golden banded mail covered in gilded leaves and mythical creatures. He carries no visible weapons. His human appearance is an illusion covering a blank, golden faceplate and black chain links that make up his hair. In combat his arms split into four and long silvered blades extend from his hands. A sapphire encrusted, golden plate with a large, multicolored diamond covers his face. When in flight, a pair of stiff metallic wings and Rocket sprout from his back. Grievous is an incredibly intelligent and a masterful tactician as befits a general. When not in combat, he has little in the way of personality. He has a black and white view of the world, which has caused problems with his companions in the past. However, his loyalty is unwavering.
Current[]
Grievous is rather busy with his duties as a general. His Cohort, Inquisitor, handles most of the duties for the Gilded Legion. Grievous' primary responsibility is the Warforged Army.
History[]
Grievous was created to help Absinthe protect her homeland from raiders. He has always been by her side. Over the years, his power has increased exponentially. The Gilded Legion followed his orders without question, so when he assumed overrall command of the Warforged, the transition did not go smoothly. Grievous wasn't used to soldiers who questioned orders. His arguements with Gorgoroth, the strongest true Warforged, led to the Warforged Uprising.
Relationships[]
There are alot. Grievous basically worships Absinthe. While he doesn't hate Gorgoroth the way Gorgoroth hates him, only Absinthe can convince the two to work together.
