Character Backstory
Sharkfist was the youngest of two sons born into the deepest of poverty. Faced with desperate circumstances and zero options, his mother sold him to a wealthy merchant for 2 gold, who stripped him of his birth name. He was again sold to a pirate for an unknown sum. On board the criminal ship he was given a new name, powder monkey. Because that was his job. Knowing nothing but simple tasks, rum and violence he grew into an ignorant and uneducated man. One day while fishing he and his mates pulled in a bull shark. This shark tried to eat the man whose name at the time was second watch. The young man proceeded to grab the nose of the shark and beat it to death with his bare hands. His crew, impressed and also as unintelligent as him started chanting “sharkfist!sharkfist!”
Biography
Sharkfist first appeared in the Ironheade Hills sometime near June 2023, but rumors have circulated that he has existed there since time immemorial. He is a plausible cryptid in the Kingdom of Blackspire, appearing at many parks and events but never for long enough to be captured. Attempts to photograph "Sharky", as local cryptid enthusiasts have dubbed him, are often blurry or do not capture his full face. Whether coincidence or a result of his powerful aura, we may never know.
"Sharkfist? Oso Bearington loved that guy."
