History

Grigor was born into a family who were only mildly involved with Engineering. They were the type of Gnomes who didn't create large machines like Helicopters and such, they focused more on lifestyle needs then things that go boom. Thus, Girgor grew up around the inventions of his parents, learned off them and before long he was out inventing himself. Although not so successfully.

As time went on and he grew older, he started losing his interest in inventing and began helping others with gathering their materials for their own inventions. He continued to do this for years, helping people for a small payment and also began to deliver letters between Gnomes during the Second War.

During this time, the Second War, he started off simply sending letters to and from Gnomes building machines in the cities but soon started delivering letters through war zones as the battles heated up. He learned how to keep undetected, how to remain safe as the wars began and he ended up getting through it unscathed, luckily.

After the Second War, he returned to Gnomeregan and continued with his delivering duties. During this time he began to wonder what he should do with his future life, should he continue to deliver or should he delve into something more meaningful. It was at this point he took up a gun. He decided to try fighting a try and after a few attempts he quit, finding it not right for him.

Grigor then noticed something as he continued delivering things, whenever he delivered mail to someone he was always happy to see their smiles when they received a letter. He wanted to continue to help people smile like this so he decided to take up his career in mail delivery around the area of Gnomeregan.

It was during this time that the Troggs invaded Gnomeregen, Grigor returned to his war duty of relaying messages between battalions. Like the Second War, this helped him gained much experience in the art of keeping unseen. When the plan went through that Gnomeregan was going to be gassed and bombed, he got out as quickly as he could, finding that this couldn't end badly.

Afterward, he found himself traveling to and from groups of Gnomes, delivering letters to keep everyone in touch. As time went by, the need for him as a delivery man started to disappear, he began to lack money. This is when he decided to broaden his work, to start delivering mail not only between Gnomes but between the whole Alliance. Thus, he began his career as a Mailman, quite a skilled Mailman.
