Appearance:
Reputation:
Tilki has a reputation as a superb knife fighter and musician along with being rather odd..Off the field he is considered a lively young man who can walk into a room and make anyone laugh either at him or with him. One to go out of his way to help out any way he can, he is often scolded for handing out his earnings for odd and often useless trinkets or masks he doesn't need. He isn't seen or taken seriously by most of his fellow mercenaries, save for Bjorn and a few others who know when he is in fact being serious.
He is often thought of as the trickster of the group, which works well for one known as The Fox. This however is not the same young man one would come across in the field of combat. Once set in a task or assignment, a cold and logical individual seems to take his place. One dedicated to completing his mission or assignment, no matter the cost of life or limb.

Bio: His place of origins is unknown, for when he was just a babe he was found and brought back to Bjor Keln by Yrd The Bear, Who had discovered him while hunting in the forest. Bjor Keln handed the young babe back to Yrd to raise as his own. Growing up was well an adventure to say the least, learning how to fight and survive from various warriors. Learning to read and think critically by the Older and wiser folk. Sneaking off into the night being found asleep in the woods in the morning or occasionally sneaking black into the keep..net to mention the occasional raids...The Bear made it obvious that he was not Tilki's father but none the less treated the young Tilki as his own. It was the Bear who gave him his first pet. A small red fox, whom he named Tuli. As he grew older and his skills improved he began wearing fox masks when either in combat or around strangers. Giving rise to his name as The Fox, so he began collecting more masks from traders or wood carvers, or even carving them himself. Giving birth to a rumor of their being more than one Fox.
His ability to sneak in and out of nearly anywhere remained unnoticed for a while, That is until he was around eleven when he was caught one night by Bjor Keln. Who had taken a different path for his nightly walk. Surprisingly he was more impressed with Tilki's ability then he was upset and asked Tilki to work with the guards to tighten security, after all of a child could get past the guards a trained adult would have no problem doing the same. An endeavour that soon paid off when an assassination attempt was foiled a few months later.
Months before his twelfth birthday, Tilki joined Yrd and officially became a member of Bjorn's mercenaries and has remained closely by the Grey Wolf's side ever since. In those six years he has grown into a formidable warrior let alone an excellent spy and assassin, gathering Intel on nearly every noble Bjorn has ever been hired by in preparation should they prove untrustworthy or worse try to double cross the group.
"I am bound by blood, not by choice...I do what I must...in order to survive."
