Status: NPC bandit of Triskellian,
forming his band with Gris and Peeky.
Some people just have more luck than they deserve. Grater is a typical example
of the more despicable variant of this rare condition. Being of no particular
background but one of bullying weaker creatures and committing gradually more
unspeakable acts of crime while his uncaring parents were enhancing their
relationship with ethanol enriched beverages, Grater still always managed to
pull through, getting away with his deeds one nasty way or another. As he was
proven to be more or less invulnerable, gradually he began to think of himself
as a genius, a mastermind of crime.
Naturally, Grater was nothing of the sort. His mind was rather mediocre, his
plans were at best haphazard, but more often outright moronically
unsophisticated, and what saved him was sheer luck. The weasel did not know
that, and if he had known, he would of course have denied it, his confidence
in himself being itself of almost criminal proportions. So, after a while, he
decided to expand his operations. He began looking for associates, and before
long, he had found his team.
Among the cretins and mentally incapacitated inhabitants of the
S'allumer-forgotten regions of Triskellian's gutters, Grater managed to find
two individuals who actually, by sheer comparison, would prove him a glorious
and forever undisputed leader. They listened to him, and took everything he
said seriously. They thought he was smart, the greatest, the best. They adored
him. Of course, this was sweet music to Grater's ears, and his ego would
probably have ruptured his skull, if the bony structure in question wouldn't
have been so thick.
Today you might, if you're most unfortunate, be ambushed by the trio, which as
time passed has become somewhat less than hopelessly untalented. If this
happens, you might want to consider doing as the poor excuses for bandits say,
not because you can't take on these inept rogues, but rather that in the end,
the phenomenal luck of Grater will always win in some particularily evil way.
Among criminals, it is legendary, and others keep away from him. But luck
can't last forever. The day Grater runs out of it, they will be waiting for
him...
