The figure before you is small, heavily robed and hands are covered with thick gloves. It eats slowly at the table and feeds a cat sized scorpion from its plate.
So, you want to know about me and Petroes, aye…Longshanks… The voice is shrill, grating and …female. She removes the hood of her robe allowing you to look into the face of a monster. Burns scar most of her visible flesh, patchy hair grows on her head and her ears are stunted for a goblin. Scream as you wish, I’ll wait until you have finished. Done Longshanks? Good. No, I’m not offended; I grew accustomed to it in the University. That’s where I met him, the Professor. I managed to sneak in the night to study the books there…yes, Yes I can read. Not all of us green skins burn every book we find, just most. I burn many things, just not books. It was very late, after midnight, and I was pursuing a fascinating book on evocation effects when he happen upon me. Most of you Longshanks would have attempted to kill me or run screaming for the guard. He did not. We had a conversation as two intelligent beings with common interests. It was…delightful, stimulating, fantastic…there are not enough words for our conversation. To be treated as an equal, not to be attacked as a monster, shunned and burned as a reader, it was inspiring. I impressed him enough that he managed to get me into the school proper. No more bumbling in the dark of ignorance, no further failures from teaching myself, no, he allowed me to receive true training. A gift I will never froget or be able to repay in this lifetime. The scars, you say? I was born in Thisletop, near Sand Point. Several years ago some adventures came and destroyed my home, one was a mage. He poured fire from his hands like you would water from a glass. He killed most of us and nearly me, hence the scars and my fascination with magic. I lived and followed them for several days on their way to the City of Monuments. I even managed to sneak in and steal a scroll from him. Several of the other goblins caught me trying to read it and doused by with alchemical fire, that did in my hair and added some more scars. The also gave me my moniker. Ake of the Stolen Soul
After I was crisped by the mage I stole scrolls from, I escaped on the edge of life. I believe I passed out on a road some distance from them, for I awoke inside of a wagon. Next to me was a Halfling, Mrs Goodtree, I’ll not give you first names, it could make…problems. She had healed me,I was understandable grateful. I traveled with them for several weeks, The Mr, the Mrs, six grown children and four grandchildren. It was loud, crowded and chaotic, just like how I was raised. But, instead of fighting over scraps, living in my own filth, and nearly starving to death, it was like a home. They welcomed me, I don’t know why,.The Mrs. told me she had cast a spell to ask her god what to do and had been answered to spare me. I learned what I never had from my tribe, I learned how to be around people without needing to threaten them with terrible thing, I learned another way to be… Corny sounding, is it not? It is the truth. I still like fire and destruction, I would much prefer to steal than to buy, but I do not. I will be better than my base nature. Unless, by chance, my more destructive nature is needed or called for. Then, well…I have many pent up issues to vent. |
