Appearance

-Hair and beard fluctuate in length, but typically never past his shoulders.

-Too Many Tattoos
-Born in Ouray, Colorado in 1983.
-Pretty nice upbringing until mom and dad split when he was 14, mom took his older half sister to live in Colorado Springs. Still sorta resentful about it.
-Stuck with his dad, so he grew up basically at the lumber yard his dad owned and ran.
-Took to carving and carpentry at an early age. Started his own carpentry business at 18.
-Dad died of cancer when he was 24, he inherited everything including ownership of DLC.
-Tried the whole office job thing for a while, but the stress and grief make him turn to drink, drugs, and anything bad for you.
-Decided to hire out someone to run things for him at the lumber yard, and lost sight of his passion for carving.
-Pretty much a grade A asshole for a while, family and friends stopped talking to him.
-Things got bad, his business plummeted.
-Stumbled around a forest one night, drunk off his ass.
-Bear. Two bears. Huge bears.
-Wakes up in some stranger's bed, half naked, with mostly healed wounds all over.
-Congratulations, its a were-bear! He is immediately pulled into the sleuth of the two bears who take responsibility for his turning.
-It was a huge adjustment, but it forced him to focus on something. The sleuth was a group of good people not entirely unlike himself, and they helped him get back on his feet.
-The Sleuth was a good experience and helped him grow, but the whole ordeal made him want to turn a new page and start fresh. So after a couple of years, he struck out to Ridgefield to figure out where to go from there.
--In Ridgefield County--
-Moved into Graupel Canyon, and shortly became wrapped up in the Cobalt Ridge Sleuth.
-Eventually, disagreements and impulsiveness found him leaving with his closest friend, Maxine, and moving to Lauderhill
-Stuck it out with her, and then alone when she chose to move away. Rogue life, baby.
-Eventually found other bears who seemed to like him, began taking the steps to open Pine Peak Sanctuary in Camp Baron.
-Moved to Camp Baron, and formed a little ragtag Sleuth of his own.
-Somehow he's a King now, with a live-in girlfriend and two cats. His cup runneth over.
