Username: [Hiuko]
Name: Kruz Ridgeback
Race: Minotaur
Age: 28
Weapon(s): Mainly a battle ax or unarmed. He has many different weapons though.
Armor: None unless otherwise stated
Magic: None

Strengths: He is incredibly strong like most minotaurs and he is very brave. He will usually face a monster head on and even grapple with is if possible. He has wrestled a wyvern into submission before.

Weaknesses: He has a problem with small and quick beings that can get around his grasp and, although not stupid, he’s not the quickest person you’ll meet. He also has bad eyesight which is why he wears glasses.

Appearance: He towers over others at 7ft tall, although this is pretty average height for minotaurs. His fur is grey and his horns are an almost golden yellow. His eyes match his horns but his eyes are usually soft and welcoming behind his glasses. Due to bad eyesight he wears eyeglasses which makes him very district from other minotaurs. Usually he only wears pants and no shirt and no footwear. He has many types of armor for hunting different monsters and his weapons are many and varied as well although he will typically be unarmed or wielding an ax.

Personality: He is a big fluffy teddy bear that can wrestle a wyvern to the ground. He is very kind and caring and not the brightest match in the box. He is brave though and will take on any task with ferocity.

History: He was born in the mountains to the south of the desert and decided to be a monster hunter. He tracked a monster into the desert and met the people who became his monster hunting companions. He heard of the Desert Storm because his companion Icarus knew Miranda and he joined because he liked the cause. 

Other: There’s not much to him, just a big strong minotaur. He does have a camel in his band of monster hunters but he doesn’t ride his because he’d probably break its back. Thus he walks, minotaurs were made for long distances to walk and if need be he can easily outrun a camel even in the desert. Lastly he likes to carry around his friend Slith, the kobold of the monster hunters. Slith is only 1.5 ft so he fits on Kruz’s shoulder quite easily and he doesn’t weigh too much either.
