Description

ONCE UPON A TIME I was roaming the internet and I came across a group dedicated to OSSANS which if you know me you know I live for ossans; they were kind enough to send me an invite despite my incoherent excited screaming on their front page and thus the most self indulgent character design ever was born.

GUH I HOPE EVERYTHING IS OKAY I HAVEN'T SLEPT...
(I DONT THINK I MADE HIS EYEBROWS THICK ENUFF)

History: Grigori was born in Germany but moved to Russia during his university years, majoring in history and religious studies. There he remained and took up a job as an Orthodox priest in a small church in St. Petersburg. He later married, and the two adopted a son they named Alexei (due to his wife not being able to carry a child herself). About 15 years later, his wife passed away, and the following years he had a major falling out with his son. Alexei went on to go to school in America, where he later joined the military against his father's wishes.

It was around this time Gori hit a pretty low point; he started to see only the faults in people around him and became quite bitter at life and even his religion. One winter morning he was begrudgingly cleaning leaves off the roof of the church, for a burial was being held that day in the church cemetery and he wanted the church to look presentable. Unfortunately, he lost his footing on the snowy roof, fell, hit the icy ground and skidded into a man unloading the coffin from the hearse. He hit the man with enough force to knock his feet from under him, causing him to lose his grip on the coffin and drop it directly on the grumpy old priest on the ground below. Amen.

Trivia:
-Has a hybrid Russian & German accent
-His hands are always freezing and also quite large
-Can sometimes be caught speaking about himself in 3rd person, perhaps because of his imperfect English
-When he's reading he tends to move a lot and, for example, can end up laying on the floor with his feet on the couch
-People have questioned if he really is a priest due to his sarcastic sense of humor and dark outlook on life
-Much of his family, including his father, had joined the military and he has a lot of military angst because of it
-That cowlick will never stay down, also his glasses have no frame across the top
-He is actually hella good at Tetris, not too shabby at darts either
-After marrying his wife he wore a white cassock, but changed back to black once she died
-Despite being surprisingly social, after the death of his wife he no longer retained any close relationships
-Though he is (currently) not practicing as a priest, he continues to wear his cassock, as he considers priesthood a way of life and cassocks are the general casual wear for priests

More on his Skills:
-Casting the magic shield takes a lot of energy, and he can't keep it actively around him for more than a few seconds at most; his timing has to be perfect, and the more he uses it the weaker it gets
-He's a very defensive fighter and likes to rely on his ability to literally reflect attacks thrown at him back at the user when he can; when this fails or he runs out of energy for the barrier, he turns to his bow
-He's very quick, but once he's caught he's quite defenseless physically

Weapon: Bow
Other items: -
Current Ossan Points: 500 OP
