## History

### Floors of Serventent

Gruckles accompanied the party on their entry into the Grand Library in the capital city of Mez. Inside, he asked the librarian about books on how to make bombs, to which he was directed to books that he studied to perfection. Later, he asked the same librarian for books on both marijuana and methamphetamines, to which they only had the latter. He tried to study the meth book, but threw it out the window after not understanding it. After this, he sneaked into the darkest corners of the library to read and then steal a hentai magazine, later hitting the nae nae on the librarian to spite him, with E.D deciding to floss alongside him. He asked the librarian for the Anarchist's Cookbook, a book the librarian had never heard of. After this, the librarian accidentally misgendered Gruckles, leading to the librarian getting booze spilled on him and being called homophobic slurs, resulting in Gruckles getting banned from the library.

Inside the cafe, Gruckles was one of the first to notice Goinky, and was one of the first to question him, including being the one to pop the question about his mother's retardation. After this, Gruckles went up to the bartender, asking for beer, and then later upgrading to lean.

Gruckles followed the party when chasing the burglar, finding out that it was in fact the Meth Demon, landing the first of the two blows (the other dealt by a smack of Turkeytail's cane) needed to kill him outright. Gruckles then proceeded to scoop up some of the Meth Demon's remains and snort them, getting a slight high. He then tried to taste it, which almost killed him. Gruckles harvested the remaining meth and sold it at the cafe to earn the exact amount that was in the briefcase when it was stolen. Gruckles showed a nearby customer his stolen hentai, which made the customer really happy. He then stole beer from behind the bar's counter, but not without alerting the tender. The tender chased after him long enough to die of exhaustion, before Gruckles gave the bar customers free beer.

At the Adventurer's Hub, Gruckles convinced Goinky to pay for his entry fee for him, before hitting the nae nae on the cash register.

In the market, Gruckles killed the butcher before having the authorities called on him, prompting him to leave the country and teleport across the ocean and back, only to be discovered by the mariner that was going to take the party across the ocean. He was able to convince the mariner to let him leave without being reported, and was stranded with the party when they got to the island with the Tower on it. He went inside with the party once Copper kicked down the door.

Within seconds of ascending to the first floor of the Tower, Gruckles IMMEDIATELY went on the search for meth knowledge once again, going to the library to hunt down a HowToBasic book on meth, but was unsuccessful. Then, he went to the West Harbor to try and find people who knew anything about where to get drugs, again being unsuccessful, but he did find a shady man in the alley that could help him buy some meth. Upon Gruckles asking the man how he made it, or if he had any contacts that did, the man denied both. Angered by this, Gruckles beat the man to a pulp with his bottle, before stealing his meth supply and starting to sell it.

After Kander and Copper are kicked out of the castle, Gruckles, alongside Ozzie and Copper, coordinated an infiltration of the castle to loot it for riches, while Kander and Turkeytail stayed as a distraction. Upon Copper killing the king and puppeteering his body to illustrate the transfer of power to her, Gruckles claimed that killing him was "just a prank". Gruckles and Ozzie looted the castle's treasury, but Gruckles did not have good fortune. Ozzie used his ring of shifting fortune to aid him, nearly doubling his output of gold.

After the party made Copper queen, Gruckles went to a nearby nightclub and got a free lapdance from a particularly blocky-headed hooker.

After having a quick meal at Long John Silver's and a long rest at the castle, Gruckles went on the hunt for a crackhead, finding one that claimed to be Skyler White. Gruckles soon claimed that he was the reincarnation of Walter Hartwell White, before killing Skyler, stealing her supply, and learning to make meth.

As the party is fighting the Pig Devil, Gruckles landed the killing blow with his bottle of booze. When Copper looked for a horse stripper, Gruckles shoved a bomb up the stripper's ass with the power of the natural twenty, and killed him immediately with it.

After the party achieved diplomatic relations with the Trieilian Emperor and claimed his son, Prince Creig, Gruckles fed Creig some meth, allowing him to gain pupils. Gruckles soon sold meth to Goinky after he admitted he's an addict. After Creig gained the powers of the Fox Devil, Gruckles taught him how to make meth, high-fiving him afterwards.

Once in the town of Tieronti in the country of Hitia, Gruckles returned (with a bit of delay) from a meth deal, disappointed in Creig for his lack of sales. He attempted to feed E.D's new chicken meth, but was unsuccessful. He went to Ghost Alley to ask some of the ghosts if they knew where riches were, to an unfortunate response that they did not know. For a short while, Gruckles went hunting for clussy, before coming back to Ghost Alley to merge the two glitched ghosts together, causing them to explode into a pool of blue magical ooze.

Gruckles went with the party to Parde, wherein he travelled to the Ratbowl district to collect a rat, which he named Little Cook. He taught the rat how to make meth before disappearing once again, as he does.
