Th-ugh grew up on the outskirts of the big tar pit, on south side of flowing ice. He seemed to grow up fast and had many task as a child. At around 12, Th-ugh, realized that many men of his clan were interested in the exotic looks of the wild women on far side of the tar pit. With this information Th-ugh was able to score a few clams for each of the wild women (Neanderthals) he brought back. Th-ugh took notice that his clansmen were not keeping the wild women for more than a night... they would re-unite with women of the clan at night. Th-ugh soon realized that he could score a few more clams by not sharing the triumphs of the clansmen. This little racket earned Th-ugh many clams. Since he had to kill a few of the wild men when taking the wild women, Th-ugh soon discovered the clans women would offer clams and other favors if he would knock off their mates. Of course Th-ugh had to be careful and not kill too many of his clansmen, so he would suggest a good clubbing instead of the rock treatment. As Th-ugh approaches middle age, he has developed skills in using animal hides to sneak up and scare the people. The pre-historic black bear hide is his favorite. It allows him to get low until he rises up and strikes with his club or rock hammer. Since all good mercs like to show off the spoils of their work... Th-ugh wears the teeth of "Big Animal" he killed while going after the wild women. Th-ugh's club is a dual purpose tool... it also provides the base for starting fire with stick method. The leopard skin provides nice cover in tall grass and give a lot of freedom when running. No chaffing like with the leaves and branches that most of his tribe wears. Th-ugh is never without his money sack... This is the sack from a Teradactyle... Very tough and secure... Plus holds many clams an other valuable items. We should all be alert if we see Th-ugh in our area!
