Background: Uncle to Bostaff, he once lived in a dwarven mithril-mineing village. His father and brother perished in their first attempts at seeking adventure, one nephiew, bostaff, assumed dead after running away as a boy. A great goblin hord haveing over-ran & destroyed his borther's family's village, his sister-in-law, Lucy, and twin nephiew managing to escape, resided with him a number of years as he raised his remaining nephiew as his own son, Bojutsu haveing never married. Being a former master of smithing with mithrill, specializing in plate armor and a veteran fighter/defender of the village, he trained his nephiew in combat, together beating back the hord of goblines that plagued that region. Till one faitful day when the goblens attacked in full force, killing his sister-in-law before he or his nephiew could stop them. Then thinking he had saw the nephiew fall as well, before himself rendered unconsious by a blow accross the right-side of his face. the blow, scarring him, rendering him hideous with the battle-scar & blind in one eye a black patch now over it. The nephieew briefly awoke to see Bojutsu laying as-if-dead, battled on in a rage, blaming himself for the deaths of his mother and assumed death of his uncle until again he, then nephiew, was struck over the head unconsious, deep within the goblin lines. Then the nephiew being carried away as "food" awaking with amnesia but managed to fight his way out. Traveled until upon recovering his memory, he went quite insain with guilt. Bojutsu, wakeing to find his village utterly destroyed & no sign of his nephiew's body but assuming him to be dead, went on a calculating, hit&run, systematic killing of the goblin hord; personally killing over 2,000 Goblines over 20 years. Bitter, wandering till one day, by hearing word of exploits of bostaff, he and the lost nephiew arrived seeking the source of such rumors. Bostaffs brother being a twin, accused of being bostaff with a beard, thinking it was some trick but all finally metup with great astonishment that each was still alive. The twin of bostaff & nephied Bojutsu had raised & trained, was still insane with guild, also over haveing been in the local guards of a city, where he had rose in rank but incompetance due to guild and recklessness, had gotten his whole garrison killed, so that he was suicideal ever since, feeling guilty for himself haveing lived. Later, the same year of the reunion of the 3, the twin brother of bostaff, nephiew of Bojutsu, sacrificed his life in leaping at a powerful mage to stop him, both going up in an explosion of magic, leaving only a craiter in the dirt as big as a house. Bojutsu, once perhaps who could have been considered evil even, by the influence of his nephiews, esp after the one nephiew's noble death, had struggled within him-self, thus had took to the seas and wandering the lands for several years, seeking himself. Now a mixture of extremes, trying for good or what he thinks of as good, yet capable of being utterly ruthless in trying to achieve such goals; he's quick to anger, brave, believes the best deplomacy is an axe-blade between the eyes of the one disagreeing with him, a dwarv's dwarf, somewhat disapproving of the ways of bostaff but will quickly fight to defend any word of slander against his remaining nephiew. Thus is Bojutsu and his life thus far.
