Lady Roo Grimwulff of Tori-Mar
Breakfast? - Roo, after waking up to the mooing of cattle at Burnet County Fairgrounds.
Biography
Roo is hard to describe, but I will try. -Wanderer
Fish Out of Water
Roo is not from anything remotely medieval. In fact, the world he is from is largely Cyberpunk. He, in character, has cyberlimbs that are known to have shotgun emplacements in each arm. Sadly, for Roo, there are no gun shops locally in Amtgard.
He has been playing since the very early days of Tori-Mar and has been a mainstay in Amtgard for many, many years.

Roo: The Real Life Action Figure
Many of us have memories of Roo. I think the overall constant about him is that he comes out to have fun. He doesn't wear armor, only uses one sword, and bounces around like a Tigger. He laughs easily and makes the games exciting.
Facts about His Roo-ness
- He is a carnivore.
- He dodges arrows at the last second because he has to hear them coming, he is, for all intents, legally blind.
- He was once a gymnast and stripper as well as doing Amtgard to relax.
- He also, like Wanderer, tends to pose while fighting. They have been accused of correographing when they get really into fighting.
- Tends to leap back while fighting, a long way back.
- Dislocated a shoulder while fighting at a Baronial Quals, he put it back in place and continued fighting - until the other became dislocated. <There are witnesses to this fact...>
Belted Family
Roo is a "squeer" under Wanderer's belt line. He has only expressed interest about becoming a knight when he was informed about the title "Dame".
What is a "Squeer".
Roo has been approached by many knights to be a squire, but he has witnessed too many of his friends become embroiled in politics once they have accepted the yellow, red, or even the white belts.
I gave him a second option. If Roo wanted to be a parody of the belts, much like he was a parody of peerage, then why not let him. I got together with Esoum and we made a dainty, very loud, pink belt for him. We, later, decided that even though this does put him in my belt line, we would refer to him as a "squeer".
Roo is a constant reminder that people take this game too seriously sometimes and by bouncing around having having fun like he does, maybe he can get those same heavily political friends of his to lighten up a little. -- Wanderer
