Gruknuk's page

I may or may not have eaten him.

Hey, GMing is hard. If you want to keep playing, I'd love to continue. If you're busy, that's cool. Real life is more important than a game.
When's the next chance I'll be able to play a goblin, anyways? :b

I believe it, like the alias you selected for this campaign, will stand for all eternity as reminder of what could have been.

Stealth: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20
Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

Gruknuk does stick out like a sore thumb, but the small goblin manages to find at least a few good hiding places in the marketplace. With that perception roll, he probably won't uncover any new information :b

"Hmm," the goblin grumbles. "I don't particularly want to stay here, but if we do, I'll gladly snoop around. I'm no good at chit-chat, but sneaking around at night is one of my specialties." He winks, elbowing Saria's knee and giving her an unnerving grin.

Gruknuk nods at Korza's suggestion, but doesn't take his eyes off the oasis. "Yeah, I don't really like the desert, but I don't like this place more."

Gruknuk nervously crawls out of the cart he's been hiding in. He scampers over to Kelrot and tugs on his pant leg speaking in a hushed tone. "Yuav ua li cas yog tsis ncaj ncees lawm nrog cov neeg no?"

Gruknuk's only got goblin and common, but I've got room in my build for a point in linguistics :)

Gruknuk is severely out of his element out here in the open. Consequently, he isn't too keen on approaching the oasis. He opts to hide wherever possible while scoping out the area. Hopefully he can find a rock, cactus, or fern to hide behind.

Stealth: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11
Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17

Gruknuk dons a disappointed expression. "Is that your city?"

Gruknuk doesn't try to spend any time with his new party members. With only a few days left, he feels it's his duty to leave the sewer system as clean as possible before his departure. Nobody wants a tour of Axiom's sewage anyhow.

"Yeah, I'd be happy to -URP- show you around, but I live in the sewers, so y'know" Gruknuk shrugs dismissively.

He teases Luca, noticing her unease "I wouldn't know, I ate them all" He bears his teeth and displays his claw-like nails in a comical attempt to appear threatening.

The stout goblin stands on his chair, reaching a similar height as his companions at the table. He turns to Luca wags a finger toward her in protest "Hey, have you seen the rats in those sewers? I've fought some nasty rodents in my time, I'll have you know. Never bit off more than I can chew, though." He finishes his commentary with a wink and a smile, arms crossed with smug satisfaction.

Gruknuk, too, joins the conversation that has taken hold of the table. He gives Kelrot a quizzical look, though his words are directed at Lady Kozac. "Not often? We've never had visitors, like, ever. Is it really that bad out there?" Maybe they taste good..

At least we've got a cleric with a sweet, sweet wisdom bonus

Gruknuk answers Kelrot in his native tongue with a mischievous grin on his face. "Nas yog me npaum li cas thiab tawv, zoo li kuv."

He turns to Korza as she addresses him. "Well, why thank you. You lot seem much more capable than I am, but I s'pose you're right." The goblin flexes his arms, showing off his minuscule biceps.

I like using the Hmong language for Goblin c:
For orc, I've seen people use Mongolian, but there are no rules for such things.
@Geesyl: I'm already having a blast

Gruknuk lifts his gaze to meet Kelrot's, the small goblin's mouth crammed full of sweets. Through the horde of foodstuffs, he manages a muffled reply and stands on his chair to reach a nearby steak with his fork. By the time he reaches the charred meat over to Kelrot, his mouth is clear. "Well, I guess I'm curious about what's out there like everyone else is. I really didn't think I would get chosen for this, y'know? I'm awfully honored to be here."

Gruknuk eyes the food enviously, then glances around the table at the other guests. He follows Korza's example, grabbing the closest morsel and tossing it in his gaping maw.

This is important and I should really pay attention- is that a macaroon?!

Gruknuk's grating voice can be heard once more. "Ah, yeah. I'll be honest, this whole 'outside' thing scares me a little bit. But I think I like that." An unnerving grin full of meticulously sharpened teeth spreads across the unsightly creature's face.

"Uh, hi, I'm Gruknuk. I keep the city clean and free of rats. All hail the Inevitables, y'know."

Congrats, guys and gals c:

How do the people of Sandpoint feel about him? Does he interact with the town a lot? Does he live there, or out in the forest? How long has he known Shalelu?

Kroob has lived on the outskirts of Sandpoint for a year or two now. He keeps to himself and rarely enters town. The townsfolk don't particularly like him, but they don't bother him much since he doesn't cause any trouble. Kroob does earn a little coin by selling arrows and bolts outside from a makeshift stall outside the city gates. He's known Shalelu for ~3 years. He is 15 years old now (Goblins reach adulthood at age 10).

Kroob is ready to go! I've got a background and crunch and all that goodness. Let me know if anything needs changing c:

I'll answer your fluff questions here:

1) Kroob wears leather armor and wields a heavy crossbow that makes him look even smaller than he already is. Thanks to his muleback cords, he carries a comical amount of equipment and ammunition with him at all times.
2-3) He doesn't know Ameiko well if at all. His only friend is Shalelu. That being said, Kroob welcomes the opportunity to leave the presence of other goblins and the safety that comes with a caravan.
4) Kroob learned the basics of survival living on his own, but learned to how to fight under Shalelu.
5) For a goblin, Kroob is extremely calm and patient. For a member of an adventuring party, he is silly, awkward, and craves the attention of his peers. He's still a goblin, after all.
6) CG - Free will and fun balanced with compassion and respect for life.
7) Kroob shoots things, humans give food.

Woo! Goblins!

I was thinking of how to tie a goblin into the campaign. Would it seem rational to you that Shalelu might take a mentor role (expressed in the "Student Survivalist" trait) to a goblin?
