About Stone-Eyes
Character Sheet
The Rockmouth Clan formerly had no name; they were a band of goblins barely living off the land, living only to kill or steal from other predators, always one drought or disease away from annihilation. Then the tribe war party- nearly all their fit fighters, chief Bargh-Face, and his youngest adviser without a name- chased a horse into the mountain caves near where they lived. Gleefully they all crowded inside the system, searching hungrily for the beast which dared move faster than them. They found the horse and fell upon it- then the ground shifted. An enormous rock fall blocked the entrance of the cave, separating the war party from the rest of the tribe.
When they finally dug themselves out, half a year later, the tribe was much changed.
The newly-named Stone-eyes, former adviser to Bargh-Face who fell when a stone cracked his head in the avalanche, now ruled. Locked up in the dark, the goblins nearly fell upon each other, but Stone-eyes took control, and instituted, for the first time in goblin history, discipline. Water was collected, scrounged fungi and meat saved and preserved, shifts of diggers kept. His rule was absolute, and all that refused to obey were either beaten into submission or killed and added to their food supplies. The clan that emerged and met their women and children was named Rockmouth, for how they kept pebbles in their mouths to stimulate saliva and survive with less water. As the tribe rebuilt, and made a home inside the cave system, a new dawn begins for them, and the goblin race. Now this small tribe of goblins has order, and a purpose- to never be trapped or to fear or to starve again.
Goblins of the Rockmouth Clan look different from other goblins. Those who are Caveborn, as the trapped are named, had mountain dust rain on their skin in the darkness, and consequently have turned a ghostly pale in many places over their body. Future children seeking to be warriors will emulate the color with paints and mountain dust.
