## History

Grimhilt's father was a dragon slayer and reseacher, he was killed by a dragon during an experiment on trying to weaponize and tame the dragon, also while researching on how potent a Dragon Gear would be as a fuel source for specific military weapons.

Later in life, Grimhilt is adopted amongst the highest-ranking positions in the military of Heiteria, eventually possessing a Dragon Gear of his own. The one collected from the death of his father.

When tasked with an assignment requiring his newfound abilities, Grimhilt and a team of experienced Soul Gear users wandered into a secluded, giant cave. Eventually finding a rare type of artifact with draconic symbols on them. The team and Grimhilt end up forced to fight a dragon as it seems to be the artifact's guardian. To his astonishment, he had killed the dragon but at the cost of his sanity, for he fought no mere average dragon and the deaths of almost everyone in his team tore him mentally. Because of this situation, he accidentally acquired a second Dragon Gear, containing a multitude of powers from everyone who had passed from the dragon recently. This unique phenomenon was questioned until realizing that the artifact containing draconic runes was possibly the result of a would-to-be legendary Dragon Gear. Obtaining this secondary power left his mind in a dark state, forcing him to reevaluate his own priorities and gained a craving to killing dragons. He now sets out on killing every dragon possible as he sees no reason to allow the military to weaponize already such dangerous creatures. He also believes the dragons cannot be tamed. However, Grimhilt later comes to raise a dragon snice its birth, truly testing his theory one last time before he ultimately gives up all hope on dragons. The reason for this is because if his hypothesis is right then he would believe his father to be a fool but in the process will indefinitely break Grimhilt's sanity. Fortunately for Grimhilt, the experiment was a success so far, the dragon becomes 6 years of age and it is learning to cooperate with him, even effectively helping during some covert missions.

Retired from the military, Grimhilt now sets on exploring archaeological places set on the discovery of dragons in their history of an ancient people who once used Dragon Gears for many things as it was their main culture. Within the culture, a power struggle was created and a divide between the people was sought. Leaving anyone without a Dragon Gear to be inferior, and not worth paying much attention to. Those with Dragon Gears used this power to uphold the people in power, and kept anyone else from obtaining it, forcing others to do most work out of fear. Some Dragon Gear users in this time use their abilities so much that they nearly became a humanoid dragon or a full dragon. Those that became a dragon were killed to make more Dragon Gears and the others were put on a pedestal, being seen as selfless gods. For the fear of one's change was indefinite aswell as the possibility of being killed if one went too far and became a dragon. However, becoming closer to the symbol that gave them power in the first place (the dragons), many have tried and many fail. Eventually giving birth to this cultural cycle, a tradition translated into "Dance of The Dragon." A select day in which people dance in the blood of a recently killed dragon. It's always resulted in a dragon being killed, stripped for its meat to be later consumed and then various parts of the body is used to create a sacrificial monument which withholds up to 5 people being absorbed into the dragon, forming a very unique Dragon Gear. This tradition being used for over thousands of years was later uncovered by an covert team and the technology developed by these ancient people was used to artificially enhance certain Dragon Gears all over the world. This allowed those certain Dragon Gears to have multiple abilities at the same time, completely outclassing anything from typical Dragon Gears.
