Appearance: Bryric is average height and weight for a healthy squirrel. Though he isn't very young anymore he still has the natural speed and agility of a squirrel. His fur is plain gray with no outstanding marks or anything. His muzzle is beginning to show a few silver hairs, evidence that he isn't getting any younger. His eyes are also light gray.
The tip of Bryric's right ear is missing, lost in a revolt against a cruel master (see history). The rest of his body has several scars but his sleek fur covers them.
For clothing Bryric uses a simple brown tunic, that is well suited for work in the forge and climbing. This is belted by a plain woven white cord. Over his tunic he wears a rough dark gray jerkin with small pockets for stowing small tools and scraps.
Bryric often keeps tools like hammers, knives and lock picking tools around his waist thrust through his cord belt. This gives his outfit a slightly messy feel but he doesn't care.
Personality: Age has taught Bryric patience and wisdom. He has learned to be content with very little and careful in choosing his friends. Bryric is often very suspicious and overly careful in choosing his friends. Bryric tries to do everything perfect and expects nothing less from everyone else. Though he can often seem very stern he is really very kind. He is clever with his mind and with his paws. He always weighs the pros and cons of a situation carefully before jumping in. He is brave and loyal though spareing in choosing his friends.
History: Bryric was born in a small troupe of wandering performers. Both his parents where trapeze artists, and his father doubled as and escape artist. Bryric learned both trades and often practiced with his parents. His father taught him how locks worked and how to pick almost any lock. He got his first lock picking set when he was 5. When Bryric was 10 the whole troupe was taken captive by vermin slavers led by a rat called Helfor. Though fat and lazy Helfor was a viscous savage. He mistreated his slaves horribly.
When Bryric was about 11 his parents helped to lead a revolt against the vermin. Bryric fought against his parents wishes and lost the tip of his ear. The revolter's where easily squashed by the vermin though. His parents where killed along with most of he other grown ups. Bryric was beaten horribly and left for the crows.
A big kindly hedgehog found him first though and took him back to his cave. He nursed Bryric back to health. When Bryric was well enough he began to help the Hedgehog who was called Thassen Silverthumb around the house. He planted food and swept the cave out. In return Thassen taught Bryric the smithing trade. Thassen made incredibly beautiful things and taught Bryric how to also.
After almost 15 years of living together Thassen passed away. He was nearly 89 seasons old. After burying his dear friend Bryric packed everything that would be useful and began to wander the land. He had heard of Redwall from Thassen and was determined to go there. Eventually he made it and that is where he resides now.
