Nathan was born into a very militant family, with an Eelektross mother, and a Gallade father. He was raised as a child to be as structured as possible; that meant that he went into private schools, and received special military training. His childhood was normal, until after his teenage years, Truss's mother had died of an illness, leaving Nathan's father disillusioned and abusive. After a few years in the military, Nathan finally gave the middle finger to his father, packed and left home, where he rents an apartment with a roommate, and taken a new name called "Truss" He currently works as a bouncer at a local club to help with the rent. His roommate has yet to be named. Truss is also very amiable toward the muscular anthro crowd. He enjoys chatting with them, flexing his muscles in a pose with them, going to the gym with them as gym partners, goofing around, training and sparring with them in a non-lethal combat match, and his favorite, growing his massive muscles with his natural Eelektross abilities with electricity, with training every muscle group, and boosting his hypertrophy by supplements or by outside influences.
