Personal history
Gwylimene was born from the madness of the Fae Wood in Dolten. Taken as a boy, he remembers nothing of his formative years. His first memories are of Oloken'hai gazing into his mind in awe of it remaining unbroken while assailed with dark whispers of pleasure and pain for a good century. Seeing fit to claim a prize, The Dark Truth guided him out of the woods and into the clutches of the creeping death, the patrons, and any others that might savor the chance to snuff out an agent of The Old One.
It is with great cleverness and equal charm that Gwylimene found a calling in luring unsuspecting men into a false sense of security with song and drink, before shattering a love of life itself. It turns out feebler men can't handle hearing the sound of unseelie fae mating songs through a bard's birdpipe without often losing their minds or lives. And a good few folk in Dolten are happy to pay good coin to get rid of an annoyance, as well as lift spirits in dark times. Grim, as he became to be known by simpler folk that did not quite understand his outlook on life, was happy to provide both services with great pleasure and passion.
Education
The endless whispers of Oloken'hai, and a thousand lost souls.
Employment
Busking, assassination, odd jobs that suit his style.
Accomplishments & Achievements
Became The Seeking One at level 1 by doing absolutely nothing.
Became the Laughing One by engaging in global politics willingly for some reason.
Mental Trauma
Grim spent a century essentially socially isolated from any real contact while being constantly bombarded by the voices of thousands. As a result, he is a psychopath that enjoys wearing bits of personalities he carried with him and collects a piece of every time he takes a life.
Intellectual Characteristics
Uncomfortably charming, cunning, never angry in his 'normal' mood. Can get grumpy when he's forced into a position where he has to drop his mask and be himself. Tends to act without consideration of the safety of himself or others, but never takes a gamble he isn't confident in.
Morality & Philosophy
Life just needs more fun, and by fun Grim means everyone opening their eyes to the lies they hide behind, so they may shatter their worldview and open their hearts to Oloken'hai.

Taboos
Grim will not kill something if he thinks he can watch it break first. Will not exploit children, being exploited himself as a child it may be the only thing he has some semblance of conscience for.
Known Languages
Common, Elvish
Personality
Motivation
Break the minds of the weak and bring them into service of Oloken'hai. Take the lives of those not needed to face the calamity and that might stand in his way. Use those who are needed without knowing they are being wielded.
Savvies & Ineptitudes
High social acuity, tends to be aware of the right words to use to sway opinions. Pretends to be a bit of fool to hide his nature, but this act can often cause him to act foolish at disadvantageous times.
