CHARACTER OVERVIEW

Professor Grimgott (Prof. Grimgott/ProfGrimgott) is a strange man from another world. He was performing a regular routine of visiting a new dimension to document and store knowledge, but his dimensional device malfunctioned. He is currently stuck in Dimension #98365 AKA Rathnir and continues to explore and study the land while trying to find a way out of this dimension.

Journal Entry #1 November 30th, 2021

I found myself with a broken transdimensional teleportation displacer in Dimension #98365. I believe the locals call this place, Rathnir. More accurately, I was displaced on the soil of the country called Grandia. I walked around for several hours and found a large harbor city. Strangely enough, there were no inhabitants. I continued to search the area but found only more abandoned towns and cities. It was only when I reached the country of Yimmu-Audal, I was contacted by a man, going by the name, MickieBoj, did I finally established some actual contact with the locals. He invited me to his settlement in the country of Lithranor nearly thousands of miles away from where I was located. I was surprised my communication transceiver was able to pick up any chatter in this dimension at all. They must have advanced means of communication here. I have yet to see how their systems work, but I had no time to ponder as I was reaching the end of my food supply and needed shelter quickly. I built a makeshift boat and sailed to the coordinates given to me by MickieBoj. It took several days but I managed to arrive at Lithranor without any issue. I was then given some supplies and a place to settle. I quickly constructed myself a cabin with decent amenities and started to earn my keep here in Lithranor. Hopefully I can learn more about this world while I am here...

Journal Entry #2 December 1st, 2021

I settled nicely in my cabin and started a bit of a excavation in my basement in order to find myself a bit of resources. I didn't want to trouble my fellow Lithranors as I require a lot of resources to start experiments to understand the materials that are available in this dimension. Resources such as minerals appear to be hard to come by. I learned that diamonds and another material, netherite which is exclusive to a sub-dimension called The Nether, are very rare and very important minerals to acquire with the latter being the most difficult to acquire. Both are materials that are needed for effective armor and weapons. Although, it does make me wonder how the denizens of this dimension manage to make diamonds let alone netherite, rumored to be stronger than diamonds, malleable enough to form into weapons and armor in the first place. Further study is required... It would seem that the Lithranors are preparing for something as I soon saw a wall being constructed just next to my humble cabin. Honestly, it was ruining the rustic aesthetic I was going for, but I cannot really protest as this construction was ordered by the higher officials and must be for a good reason. I was then asked to help provide materials for said wall, and I was actually quite glad to provide the excess of cobblestone I had from my excavation. A win-win honestly. They get more materials and I clear up some space in my inventory for more important items.. I forget to mention how difficult it has been to acquire some minerals as I dug deep into the ground I found out that a lot of the area has already been mined. Claustrophobic tunnels stretch for miles and I can see patches of stone that have been long been emptied from their precious mineral stores. At best I can try and tear open the patches between tunnels, hoping some minerals were overlooked. Sure enough, there were some veins that were untouched, but it took me quite a while to find some. I even discovered some strange mineral known as 'redstone' which has some interesting properties. Apparently when grounded to dust and given an electrical charge, it can serve as a conduit for energy enabling it to power machinery, and when compressed into a dense block it can potentially function as a power source. Although, it appears that the dust can only allow energy to flow only up to a certain distance then the current weakens and fades. Further study is needed. In the meantime, helping with Lithranor's affairs seems more paramount as the nation seems to be in a crisis at the moment...
