This is Groo Stoneskipper, General of the Bear Claw Clan, and top advisor to Gortaine, King of the BCC. He has the King's ear not just for his military understanding, but also for his knowledge of all things. When not planning the next raid, he can be found studying astronomy, nature, stonework, design, and art.

Groo was not born into the clan, he was rescued by Gorang and his men from a pack of wild dogs. He was brought up in a world of priveledge within the clan, and has always thought a little differently than those around him. As a child he was interested in how things worked. While others were playing "raid the village", he was off in the woods, learning about the world around him.

As he grew, it became clear that Groo was going to be a man of influence within the clan. He excelled at everything he attempted, and soon proved he was not just a man of intelligence, but he could lead men into battle. His new ideas saved many lives and showed the King a new way to attack his enemy. As General, he has made the clan very wealthy. Groo now wants to take the clan to a new place within the kingdom.

Although not the man who makes the decisions, Groo believes he can influence the clan to become more of a true power, able to sustain themselves while keeping the traditions of the clan intact. Here he is using some of his down time to create a monument to the new King. All great civilizations create great art as well as dominate their foes, Groo hopes the Bear Claw Clan can be included among them.

Groo is part of the Outlaw faction, his colors are Black and Gold.

Fantastic work on the sculpting of the rock. Also, the shadows on the architectural designs in the background are beautiful. Great stuff mate! :)
