History in Brief
Anachronism Package Blurb
"Hugh Glass was many things during his life: a sailor and sometime pirate, an honorary member of the Pawnee tribe, an explorer. However, he is best remembered for trekking over 200 miles across complete wilderness after being attacked by a grizzly bear and badly injured. With only a knife to defend himself, Glass managed to kill the beast, but was so badly mauled that death seemed an inevitability. He was abandoned in the wilderness, but recovered, set his own broken leg, and began the 200-mile journey to Fort Kiowa. In order to prevent his flesh from becoming necrotic, he pressed his back against tree stumps covered with maggots, which cleansed his wounds. He survived, and eventually returned to the mountains. He was killed in battle with Arikaree natives in the winter of 1833.
Use Hugh Glass, grizzly killer, warrior, and survivor, to best any who are brave or foolish enough to challenge you in the Anachronism arena."
