## Biography

Berk Hope Greyson was born to conservative Christian parents in rural Arkansas, USA, and spent his entire childhood and teen years in the same small town. When he graduated high school, he moved to the United Kingdom in order to study anthropology, sociology, and psychology. The move was also a desperate attempt to leave the clutches of his overbearing parents and bigotry of the community in which he was raised. Despite his ability to quickly grasp concepts and apply the things he learned to his everyday life and relationships, the rules and structure of university life didn't agree with him, and he ended up dropping out after two years.

A jack of all trades, it was easy enough for him to pick up odd jobs at small businesses in the Manchester area; this income, combined with the leftover money from scholarship grants for his university education, allowed him to pick up his roots and move to Europe. He spent the following four years traveling the world in such a manner, upgrading from a simple six-speed bike to a small SUV and travel trailer after the second year. As such, he has friends and acquaintances all over the world, most of whom he keeps in touch with via the internet.

His trailer is his home, but eventually he decided to return to the country of his birth, and in the fifth year after leaving college, he re-entered the United States. He's avoided returning to his parents' town, but otherwise all roads are subject to his meanderings. It was a few months after his 25th birthday that he discovered the church of Rorrim Sacellum and joined the Cyber Sect.

## Personality

Berk considers himself to be an ambivert - as outgoing and easy to befriend as he is reserved and quiet. His time spent traveling the world with little permanent attachments is a time that he considers to have the most emotional and psychological impact on his sense of self. Since he's still traveling, he considers himself to still be learning, but he's more confident in himself at this point. This can get him into a lot of trouble, though, since he often gets in over his head in many ill-fated attempts to help whatever community he's staying nearby for a long enough amount of time.

Most people who meet Berk notice immediately that he's honest, open, and always willing to lend a hand. Unfortunately, this knowledge is usually followed soon after with the revelation that he tends to disappear when he's overwhelmed himself with responsibility. The mobility of his living arrangement allows him to vanish into the night when needed, and as such there are more than a few small towns and neighborhoods where he's known as the man who volunteered to help at a big event and then dipped the night before.

He likes to watch sci-fi and fantasy shows and films, and has written his fair share of fanfiction. When he's not driving long hours or hanging out in new social environments, he likes to laze around his trailer with music or a show on in the background as he plans his next destination.

## Triva

* On one of his stops in Canada, a stray cat showed up at his trailer and never left. He got the cat checked over at a pet clinic and then made a few changes to his trailer to accommodate his new friend. Berk named him "Mr. Anderson" and has since taken to holding very serious philosophical conversations with him over a lunch of tuna and crackers.
