» Canon Point: Post Dual Strike
» Gender: Male
» Age: He appears in his late twenties, and has a mental age of around the same. No canon age is specified.
» Orientation: Grit's sexuality is something not focused on in the games, except for one conversation.
This conversation is where Grit and Nell first, and last, talk on screen, along with Max. (Note: Max is another male CO who has feelings for Nell)
Grit : Yeah, I'm doin' all right. How about you? You and Max getting along
all right?
Nell : So that's the reason you left Orange Star. You sensed Max's feelings,
and because he's your friend, you...
Grit : Whoa! Hold on, now. Let me set you straight. I did what I did 'cause
that's who I am, darlin'. I go where I want to go, and stay where I
want to stay. That's it.
Nell : Oh, I...
Grit : See you later, Nell. Take care.
Nell : Grit... Goodbye.
Grit left Orange Star for a reason, and it is apparent that it was due to having romantic feelings for another person. It is not specific who this someone is; it could be Max or Nell. However this game does not divulge in the situation any further, leading only speculation. But this conversation does show he has feeling for someone, so he is not asexual, but unknown.
» Personality: Grit is very often called lazy or laid back, and he shows that he's, at the very least, fairly lazy. He enjoys taking naps very often, almost always commenting that he could use a nap, and would usually rather let someone else take the lead over him. This almost always upsets his superior, but he seems to only do it in front of his superior, making it seem almost like an act. Being laid back, however, he does this often. He's almost always very casual about everything, has a very laid back speech, and prefers to stay calm and relaxed about any situation. He even tells the younger CO, Colin, to take it nice and easy. While he does show some anger, he never gets frazzled or overly upset. He prefers to over view the entire situation, and figure out the best path.
While he often acts sort of hick-ish (using words like 'Possum spit' and a lot of different country-esque slang), he's pretty smart. In the first game, he helps Sonja, another CO, with intel, and despite how well she is shown at gathering intel on her own, she wishes that she could be as useful as Grit. When other Blue Moon COs are fighting in the second game, if he's not on the field as well, he gathers intel with another CO, or on his own. He's a lot smarter than he appears. He learns about people easily, and can tell how their feeling even if they don't show it (for instance, he can tell that Olaf is crying for his country when they clear Black Hole out of Blue Moon).
He's can be sarcastic at times, giving his superior, Olaf, the nickname 'O Bearded One' as a joke, and generally does this towards Olaf, however he always tries to pretend he didn't say a thing. Grit does like to joke around, but he knows when he has to be serious too. If someone he's friends with, or cares about, is in trouble, he'll stop messing around, and immediately tell people where to go or what to do. He's secretive about things too, not always speaking much of himself or telling people things about himself. A big sign of this is while talking to Nell about why he left Orange Star, and interrupts her, telling her he has his own reasons, and isn't very willing to talk about why he left. But he has the ability to make close friends, especially the one seen in another commanding officer, Max. He's fairly modest, saying that he doesn't too often hear about his praises being sung, and tells Colin to stop it.
He will act on what he sees as right and wrong. While being offered to join Black Hole, Grit comments that he does not believe land belongs to anyone, but he won't join Black Hole due to the mass destruction that had been caused. He generally prefers to be on the good side of things, rather than the bad. In the first game, he often comments on Olaf attacking Orange Star and digging into their territory.

[And grumbling comes up on the feed. Grit shows up, looking less than pleased.]
Funny, I thought I’d get to stay home this time. [He pulls a cigarette and a lighter out of his pocket, and looks around the room carefully.] Guess nothing to do but hope she gets bored of me again. [He tries counting on his fingers.] ...Time three here. Think she would’ve had enough of me. [He chuckled a bit, sucking heavily on the cigarette in his head. His body seemed to calm down tenfold.] Hm? You on? [Absolutely pretending he forgot about it.]
Anybody listenin’? Gonna get to the point here. Need a job and a place to live. [He lets the hand with the cigarette slip and tap onto the ground a bit. He’s looking a bit forelorn off into the distance.] Willin’ to move in today if that’s something you’re lookin’ for. As for work... [He brings the cigarette up, and sucks on it really hard.] Get in touch. Name’s Grit.

He rarely had those dreams; dreams where he was involved in something less than normal. So when he woke up, and realized that he had a very steamy dream, there were only two available options.
He either got really drunk, or he was back on Atia. And low and behold. Looking around... yes, only one real explanation. He was here on that sex island again. Great. Just great. He sat up in bed, and quickly removed the covers. Rubbing the back of his neck... yup, the collar was there.
He didn’t exactly mind this place the first time around; he was never in any extreme danger of dying, and he knew that. But the second time... why was he here the second time anyways? ...Or was this the third time he was here? His memories were clouded and difficult to grasp what was what. Was this his second visit? Or his third? Ugh, he didn’t understand it. What was going on with his memories anyways? If he had the chance, he was going to ask her. Frankly, staying home, even in that war torn home of his was far more appealing than spending more than two weeks on this place.
He didn’t like his mind being messed with. Before, he didn’t mind it much. But now he was starting to get memories of two times here before. Originally, he just had one, but a second one was appearing too. So three times in total. His memories were being messed with, and he hated that more than anything else there was. Of course, there was really only one person to blame about something like this. This island was starting to finally look like the hell people claimed it to be. But he pretty much shoved it away; emotions were not going to get in the way here.
Seeing as he had time, he went to take a quick shower. That white stuff was far too sticky for his tastes. As he hopped into the shower, he had to think of his next move. While he hated being here, he knew better than to try and escape. But at the same time, it would, eventually, be worth a shot. His main goal right now was to gather whatever intel he could. Maybe there was a way off this island no one had noticed yet.
It was at least worth a shot. Finishing up the shower, he grabbed the towel that was there and did a quick dry down. At the very least, he could figure out how to get some more than necessary items for staying here. Like transportation.
Job first though. He needed to find a high income place of work. As high as he could get it.
Maybe the second time wouldn’t be so bad... or third time.
