█ BACKGROUND ▬ Just a young man when Atlas fell, Eik was part of a community that fled to Vale. The community was comprised of farmers, hunters, soldiers, doctors, and even Huntsmen, who had chosen to live in a more rugged fashion in Atlas' wilds, a group of hard-bitten who chose to face a more challenging way of life than the comforts of civilization. They took meager supplies, and built a community from the ground up. Sadly they were forced from their homes at the fall. Pooling what little they had together, they purchased land in Vale, and started anew, though they found the more temperate land largely more forgiving than their homeland. This community came to be known as the Rekkr clan.
In the Clan, Everyone was responsible for the upbringing of the children, and Thus Eik learned to Farm, Fish, Gather, Apply first aid, and build, as well as Combat training. There were two things Eik took to like a fish to water, and that was fighting, and survival. He would often leave for days at a time with just a hunting rifle and a canteen, and return with meat, and animal hides, and the more he did this, the more primitive survival techniques he acquired. By Fourteen, He could build a number of shelter types, could clean and dress animals he had hunted, he could start a fire by hand drill, bowdrill, and firesaw methods. He knew how to identify useful or edible plants, and he could track and hunt like a professional. These were skills he began to share with other children in the community, hoping to make sure everyone could survive off the land as best they could.
Eik grew confident and strong thanks to his rugged upbringing. By his middle teens, he'd fought with Grimm, though only in a few encounters, and had trained extensively with weapons he had available. His first fight with the creatures of Grimm came during a gloomy day in the community, when a plant blight had done damage to a number of crops. A pack of beowulfs assaulted the settlement, and Eik found his first instinct was to fight back. he took up a wood-splitting axe, and expertly felled his first target, as he felt some kind of force guiding his actions. This experience was short lived, for when he engaged the next target, he no longer felt the guiding force, and he narrowly avoided losing an eye to a swiping claw. Still, he fought back and helped the local Huntsmen repel the attack, something that didnt go unnoticed.
The huntsmen in the clan instructed him in the process of making his own weapons, and began to instruct him in the methods of fighting Grimm, how to identify them, what theyre weaknesses and attacks were, and how to use his Semblance. which yielded effective results. The huntsmen advised it would be beneficial if he were to receive formal training, and proud of his achievements, Eik applied for enrollment at Beacon.
Despite his lack of formal education, Eik is a formidable warrior, and a quick study. He hopes to formalize his training and skills, and then help lead the charge to take back his homeland.
