Tartan Boggist

Gylmyne Gilleandrais Gamelin Bróccin Bungus Bogus Bannus Bilius Lukotrix Lutumaros Mac Logan or Gylm MacLogan (commonly referred to as Tartan Boggist) is a stylist, fabric manufacturer, salesman, militant Boggist and member of the Bog Cult. He is one of the largest among the Boggists in both height and mass, an anomaly among the group where it not for his devotion and personal like of the Bog Priest. He has ginger hair and a prominent beard while often sporting one of his many iconic purple tartans and plaids. He is often amiable and cooperates well with most other Boggists (with the exception of Robe Boggist).

Origins
Gylm MacLogan was one of 16 siblings who lived on Level 1023 and grew up together without parents. From the beginning, Gylm was seen as an outcast, often getting into arguments with his siblings and wasting what little wealth the family had on his own vices. This came to a head when Gylm attempted to begin his own fabric business and bankrupt the family, being considered dead by 14 of his 16 siblings for his mistake. Moving to the higher levels in the hope of finding a more suitable market, Gylm was stuck in poverty and living only from sale to sale. At this time he began to consume more alcohol, numbing the pain of failure while also bringing him more failure. Despite this, when the fog rose and the lower levels were plunged into chaos, he would be the last of his family to survive (to his knowledge).

Boggist Conversion
Now in the throes of depression and grief, Gylm would fully succumb to his alcoholism and sink ever lower. His sales plummeted to nothing as he would only drunkenly wander the mid-levels. Perhaps from the will of the Bogs or just plain dumb luck, he stumbled into a congregation of Boggists one day. He busted down the door and accidentally collapsed at the altar of the Bog Priest, the recently Bog-merged leader of the cult. Choosing to go ahead with the ritual that they were planning to do on the person that Gylm just bumped onto the floor, the drunken fool would be reawoken. Glym MacLogan would be given the title Tartan Boggist and would now swear an oath to the Bogs. In truth, all the Bog Priest had actually done was kick him in the back of the head and then the guy started speaking in tongues (presumed Gaelic). From then onwards, Tartan Boggist would work to service the Bog Cult’s goals on several front while also swearing off his rampant alcoholism.

Level 65
Infiltrating one of the greatest hubs of textile manufacturing in the Bunker, Tartan Boggist would do all in his power to redirect the resources of the level to serve the needs of the Bog Cult. At first he would work alongside another fabric clothing enthusiast, Robe Boggist, who had become especially notable for his making of the Bog Priest’s attire. A rivalry would soon form between the two, but for the time being they would cooperate in spite of their differences. Gaining intelligence on the nature of ‘floag’ (a flax seed relative being used on Level 65), Tartan Boggist would be seen with more authority. Most importantly Tartan Boggist revived his plaid and tartan production, now using the distinctly Boggist color of purple in all of the textiles as a show of devotion.

Level 265
Having enough of the petty inter-Boggist business politics around Level 65, Tartan Boggist moved down to the front lines of Level 265. The local Boggist forces were under a loose coalition under the pretext of monopolizing food and ration production, so Tartan Boggist sought to bring them together under one leadership. They find success for a while, with Tartan Boggist slowly learning the ways of warfare and how little he actually knew how to lead an army. After another failed battle against the native Quaggers, who else but the Bog Priest ends up on the level. He happens upon a funky rock and makes Tartan Boggist snort its dust, turning him into a warrior gripped by insanity. Somehow taking up both armor and sword (where would he even get those?) he storms into the bogs and marshes with a fury unmatched. A particularly bloody tussle leaves him behind enemy lines, Tartan Boggist battling the legendary Moss Lord and giving the Bog Priest enough time to leave. A couple fights later and he reverts back to his ‘natural’ state (he could still revert in theory) and returns up to Level 65 to continue his work to this day.
