Glebnier Boegrowtan

**SUMMARY:**

Glebnier Boegrowtan the Botanist is simply put a strange fellow; he’s clumsy, a bit goofy, sometimes a bit way too laidback, and often just downright weird... at least in the eyes of most his tribe-mates. Yet Glebnier is a man of many talents, and these have come to fruition as of lately leading him into revolutionizing the tribe’s Agricultural systems and methods.

**BACKSTORY:**

Born with a natural Green Thumb, Glebnier has always been gifted when it comes to plants. As a boy he was vastly fascinated with the insect kingdom, particularly with the colossal Dragonfly, Meganeura. At age 5 he had befriended 3 of the large and wild insects, and by age 7 he discovered how to tame Dung Beetles, his first of which, named Gwendolyn, would go on to become his best friend. Gwendolyn and him did everything together, play, sleep, eat; even tending the family garden together! With her help Glebnier was able to discover fertilizer, a discovery that would later play a major role in his life. His life took a dramatic turn when at the age of 16, Gwendolyn passed away, leaving him traumatized. The experience taught him the value of life, and he began to encompass his own ideology based around harmony with nature and the natural world. Glebnier swore off unnecessary violence, devoting much of his goals towards peace, both with others and with nature.

Several years later Glebnier returned to working with Dung Beetles, eventually managing to perfect his newfound fertilizers. Others started to take notice of his skill at gardening, and by the age of 22 he was actively being encouraged by others to take up his discoveries to the Zelgorian Court. At 25 he finally did it, and for the first time in his life he wasn’t getting laughed at... the council was absolutely amazed by his work. Glebnier was quickly placed in charge of several small farming plots and asked to try out his methods, a task which he was given 2 years to complete... he passed with flying colors, and the Court charged him with overseeing the entirety of the Zelgorian Tribe’s Agricultural crop production.

Within 3 years Glebnier had already more than doubled food output, but he would go on to push the envelop even further! His most recent breakthrough, resulting from collaboration with Gruemborg and Roegrath, created the first automated pumping and piping stations, allowing plants to receive water even during the dry season! Now at 31 Glebnier had reached frame, his insects and passion for gardening leading to a complete revolution of the tribes’ farming practices, as well as their understanding of the insect world. He still gets a laughed at here and there for his strange quirks, odd friendships with bugs, and bizarre mannerisms... even Chief Zelgor and Yurdongor still snicker at him every once in a while, but as a whole, the Zelgorian Tribe has grown to revere and admire Glebnier for everything he is, and for never giving up on himself or his dreams.

Glebnier even still misses his former best friend, as Gwendolyn shall always have a huge home in his heart. Once the kid everyone beat up and bullied, now an honored and fabled hero of the Tribe... all without even raising a blade!
