Adam Farreach, previously known as "Adam Grimsbane" in the nation of New Netheril, is one of the founding members of the Boundless, and using his physical strength, skill with a sword, and occasional showcase of intelligence, has proven himself as a useful companion to the party.

Adam started his journey on a beach, having woken up after drifting in the oceans around Faerun for an unknown amount of years. Without any recollection of his past, except for the memory of a single woman's face, he found himself wondering about for about 10 years aimlessly - with a few notable meetings here and there. Eventually, he found himself in a group of misfits lead by Volothamp Geddarm, and continued his pursuit.

Adam eventually did learn more about him self in the shape of Sake Jiro, the Kozakuran samurai whose soul Adam had been "borrowing". Due to this, Adam gained some of Sake's memories and visions, and on top of this, Adam did manage to gain more memories of someone called "Adam Grimsbane", who turned out to be who Adam was.

Eventually, through the relationships he eventually learned to form with his group, and the adventurers he has gone through, Adam's goals and mind has vastly changed, and despite him achieving more and more memories of his multiple "pasts" - he still contemplates his own reasons and purpose for existing. Currently, his goal is to fight against The Immortal Emperor, and he still maintains a strong desire to become the greatest swordsman in Faerun. His motives for that, however, are still unknown.

## Appearance

### Debut

Adam's appearance when introduced was secretive and mysterious. He was completely covered up in random fabrics, bandages, and generally mismatched items, and the only things that were exposed were his right arm and his eyes, which were only visible due to them showing a white light. He wore a dull green jacket and underneath, a soft brown tunic. Leather was strapped to parts of his left arm to avoid the clothing from being ripped off and exposing his arm during combat. He also wore very loose trousers and boots that don't fit his feet. A lot of this clothes during this time were very worn and loose, perhaps to avoid his form being exposed and to also stuff more leathers and cloths underneath his clothing. Due to this, Adam had also strapped bandages and leathers around his clothing to stop it from getting in the way while fighting any enemies.

In general, his outfit was designed for a purpose of keeping himself hidden and to camouflage himself away from others. However, there are notable things that stand out from his generally well covered up attire. Firstly, Adam had a distinctive mask he used to cover up his face. It was made fully from steel, and had vent holes as well as eye slits, one of which held a scratch that went all of the way through. Adam still keeps this mask around, but also ensures to keep it safely put away. Secondly, Adam's right arm was exposed, revealing complex and intricate machinery not found anywhere else in Faerun. He kept it exposed as it could swap between a hand, a blade, and a crossbow at his will. Due to this, in order to swap it he must keep the arm exposed. Finally, Adam wore a red scarf around his neck at the time, something he kept to himself after a particular gnome called Corvyn handed it to him before the start of the campaign. He keeps this scarf in his home in Waterdeep currently.

### Eternals Form

After a battle with his son, Cain, for the first time, Adam was forced to reveal his true form behind the clothes. What that revealed was a incredibly intricate and complicated machinery that bordered on magical in terms of technicality.

Adam's face is composed of a metal and looks similar in structure to a human skull. However, there are some differences. Due to the artificial nature of his head, it has numerous thick metal plates that help him withstand heavy blows to the head, which would normally crush a normal skull, like falling boulders and blows from Cain. Instead of eye sockets, Adam's eyes resemble more like LED slits rather than eyes. His teeth are made of a similar steel, however it is much more enamel coloured than other parts of his skull, which resemble a dark silver/black.

The rest of his body resembles a muscular form, however much more versatile and robust. Thicker bones and pistons act as muscles for Adam, and those mechanics are covered by metal plating's that slide over each other to keep him mobile and light, yet fairly protected. However, despite this design choice, his weight is around around 340lbs.

Due to his years underwater, Adam's body has severely downgraded in terms of robustness. His metal surface is scuffed and scratched in many places, and he has a scar on one of the eye sockets, despite the eye still functioning well. It is easy to break, encounter technical malfunctions, and it is common to find bits of seaweed and dirt/grime within his internal functions. Furthermore, his design is far weaker in terms of robustness and build in comparison to his family.

However, the most interesting part of his design is that the power source of the machine is a biological heart, augmented with machinery to function without food or water. Adam later finds out that this heart used to belong to a samurai who died many years before him, called Sake Jiro. It is protected within his chest, and can only be accessed when Adam presses on the button within the centre of his chest.

### Kozakuran Form

#### Pre-Mithril Hall

During his adventures with Revan, Kaiya, Trost, and Wru'kog, taking up small jobs and generally bonding in Waterdeep, Adam's interactions with others lead to his personality changing and him gaining a deeper sense of humanity. Surprisingly, this lead to physical changes occurring within Adam. Firstly, his heart started to glow more and beat more rapidly, and Adam was able to fall asleep, something he has never been able to do before. Later, he felt hunger and grew a stomach. Eventually, as more time went by, more and more parts of him was filled and covered with flesh, until he seemed no different from another human being.

His human form in this time resembles a Kozakuran form of a young man in his early to mid 20s, with long white hair and a clean shaven face, though he can be caught with stubble and the occasional beard. Adam's face also is covered in scars, two of the most notable ones being one in a similar style of his machinery, a scar going along the left eye. His largest scar is one that covers the majority of the left side of his face,  caused after he cut out flesh to expose his mechanical insides - proving a point to Revan. Overall, his appearance is reminiscent to a younger Sake Jiro, something Adam didn't realise until he met him on the floating island above the world tree.

Adam's physique during this time is extremely muscular and athletic, but also very lean in terms of fat. His metal arm was still visible despite his newfound skin, due to it not growing over the thicker mechanics of the arm. This didn't bother Adam, as it allows him to use concealed weapons comfortably. Furthermore, Adam still retained glowing white eyes.

#### Post-Mithril Hall

During his adventures in mithril hall, the party had come face to face with an avatar of Demogorgon. Thanks to Revan and Adams' quick thinking, they managed to beat the creature, but due to many boulders crashing into Adam, when he recovered 40 days later, he had lost his arm in the destruction. The rest of his body survived, with metal form having taken a few dents, cracks and breakdowns.

This eventually led to Adam having a series of replacement arms he used to allow himself to still be useful and fight against adversary he had. After leaving Mithril hall, Adams arm was replaced with a wooden replacement created by Revan, and would be used until it eventually broke down due to an accident that occurred in the sewers on a town near Selgaunt.

#### Muramasa

When Adam attuned to the artefact, Muramasa, a cursed katana with enough powerful energy to curse an entire island, he underwent some physical changes as a response to absorbing this power. Firstly, one of the more noticeable changes is that his eyes started to glow a crimson red, instead of his normal white. This is further exaggerated whenever Adam unsheathes his sword, leading his eyes to burn brighter and also emit a crimson smoke from his eyes. Another physical change that would be present when Adam would unsheathe his sword would be a misty black arm that would form in place of his missing arm, which coated itself in red veins and energy crackling from it.

A new addition to Adam's appearance would be his new armour, which could take form whenever he used certain abilities using his sword. A red cloak would form, as well as a grey sleeveless coat and black armour underneath. Adam would also look physically much stronger and muscular after this, as newfound strength would take a hold on his body.

#### 50% Corruption

After the battle with a herald of Tiamat, where Adam dropped 330ft, he was left in complete destruction. Missing both of his legs, a part of his lower torso, and an arm, He was left with only his left arm and a fading life force. Weeks later, Adam attended deeper with the sword, which granted him an entirely new form. Adam's body took the form of an Oni.

Adams face went through a drastic change, turning into a form similar to the mask of an Oni. He grew yellow sharp teeth and red skin on his face, and his red eyes became more animalistic and feral. While it looked like a mask, it could move and act like a normal face. Furthermore, every other part of his body was transformed into a black, dense and muscular body. His nails were more reminiscent of claws, and unlike before, instead of the missing limbs being replaced when he drew his sword, rather the limbs were permanent. On top of that, they were much more dense and physical, looking more like black limbs covered in mist, rather than energy. His body was permanently covered in Kozakuran armour at the same time.

Similarly to his Eternal form, this form of Adam showcases how monstrous Adam truly is, as many people who look at it feel a big sense of discomfort and fear. Generally, Adam has used this for his advantage, threatening those who may be trying to be an obstacle for Adam. However, he still dislikes how he looks in this form, especially how unapproachable he seems, as he can barely express anything other than anger in this form.
