[[File:Mirthful Rhus Pencil.jpg|alt=Kholo (Gnoll) pencil sketch glaring at faintly drawn subject in the foreground.|thumb|Pencil sketch of Rhus' signature intimidating glare.]]

== Concept ==

=== Background: ===
==== Childhood: ====
At a young age Mirthful Rhus was taken from his pack and sold to a circus. While he wasn't very gifted in the performance department, he earned his keep offering a helping hand, especially if you needed to be lifted the burden of your coin purse. After a slow haul and the beating by the Ring Master, Rhus decided the locks on the owlbear's cage needed to be replaced, and the owlbear looked a little hungry. Rhus was kind enough to let the Ring Master know something was amiss but did not stick around for the untimely death.

==== Adulthood: ====
Rhus has become a little jaded drifting from place to place with odd jobs here and there. While Rhus tries to embody a rough intimidating exterior, this ruse hides a loyal and friendly soul seeking a pack to belong to. Rhus' recent endeavors have primarily revolved around providing security detail, investigative work, and mercenary jobs. Due to his upbringing and a conspicuously placed scar, it doesn't take much to turn his cute fluffy face into an intimidating grimace.  

==== Goals ====
Rhus is looking to land a stable employ and the friendly company of a new pack. Rhus pines for the day he can put the ruse of his frightful visage to rest and enjoy peaceful days with loved ones in shade of a tree on a grassy knoll.

=== Edicts ===
Rhus is driven by loyalty to his pack and is compelled to support those close to him. If good can be achieved at minimal sacrifice or with higher odds of success, Rhus will take that bet.

=== Anathemas ===
Rhus will not abide cruelty and justice will come without mercy.
