 Garret the Breaker

 

Garret is a legendary paragon within Therra. He is known all throughout the realms as the most effective and deadly shot with throwing daggers. He will famously break every single mug within a bar just as a matter of showmanship. Though he is capable of throwing over 150 daggers within a minute, he avoids combat because of his frail stature. He is honored in nearly every major city, and is viewed as somewhat of a celeberity. While it is unclear weather it was his brother, or an Aleax, a darker Garret was slain after attempting a massacre. This could not have been Garret, he was confirmed to be preforming in 3 Rivers.

 

 

 

Physical Stature

Garrets body is actually fairly toned, knotted with tiny muscles evenly spread throughout his body. His hands are well kept and considered precious to him, as they are the reason for his success. His fingers are heavilly caloused, and Garret uses a special cream to prevent that from impeeding his manual dexterity. Garret is a typical halfling, standing at about 3'5 and weighing 65 pounds. His hair is blonde and always brushed back. He is almost always grinning, and usually is up to trouble. He wears simple leather armor, and the only complexity in his wears is the storage of daggers. Though no one is certain, a barmaid in Maddocks Gate claims to have counted over 300 daggers visable on his person. For this reason, many bars with no-weapon policies either make an exception because he is largely a preformer, or he simply strolls in without heed. Though Halflings cannot grow facial hair, Garret famously wore a fake moustache in several major competitions.

 

History

Born in 3505, Garrets early years were uneventful. The only child of a wandering band of halfing gypsies, he was named Garreth Littlefoot the second. His unwieldy name was soon changed to Garret, it is uncertain who changed it. Garret's family preformed fire tricks and juggling. Once, Garret was burned severly on the back from an explosion his father had created for a trick, ever since Garret has feared fire. Avoiding fire, he began to learn the trade of juggling. Apparently, his friend Findrick, stole one of the clubs he was juggling one morning. Instead of stopping the act, Garret continued to juggle, but threw clubs at Findrick and grabbed more clubs to replace them all in one fluid motion. He almost knocked Findrick unconcious with his throws, all being a perfect shot. Over the years, he dedicated his studies to the art of throwing, and moved away from the circus group at age 20. He enters every throwing contest he can find, and has only lost 2. He has adventured a bit, and vanqueshed foes that are both deadly and feared. He has impressed many, including Celer Mortis, Selnai, Murkle Sure Shot (even bested him), The Old Man and Sirith, to name a few.
