Backstory: Gurp has been living on the edge of the village for longer than any goblin cares to remember. A long time ago (as goblins reckon time) there was a food shortage, and eight baby goblins were exiled into the swamp. They were promptly forgotten about. Eventually, however, one of them came back, fully grown and half-crazed riding a giant slug. This goblin, calling himself Gurp, proceeded to ramble about how the tribe had disrespected the swamp before slowly riding off into the murk. Since then, Gurp has been living on the outskirts of the village with his best (and possibly only) friend Squishy, occasionally coming into town to yell at some random goblins and offer "sagely" advice to others.
Appearance: Gurp is squat for a goblin, and is decked out in various furs and fetishes that show his devotion to the swamp. He always wears a crude tribal mask that conceals an acid burn over the left side of his face.
Relations: Gurp has taken the role of a slightly neglectful father figure for two bags of slugs he calls "Baby Squishies," even though they are fully grown and not even the same species as Squishy. Of the baby Squishies, the one closest to him is the slug Dread Overking Squishy, who he is convinced whispers swamp secrets to him in his sleep. He has also grown to enjoy the company of his companions, although he would never admit it. He appreciates Ronk's strength, Twitchy's smarts, and Medge's...Medgeness. He's not quite sure what to think of the bird and cat yet, though.
Current Goals:
Gurp has two rather lofty goals as of right now.
1.) Serve the Swamp in any way possible. Gurp wants nothing more than to make the swamp happy. His main objectives involve spreading the teachings of the swamp, protecting the few goblins the swamp has birthed that Gurp actually likes, and possibly making the swamp physically bigger somehow.
2.) Get a mate and pass on his genes. Taking a backseat to his swamply duties, Gurp hopes to eventually make the goblin gene pool slimier and more brackish by having a family, as is the duty of every living thing. Gurp doubts this will be possible, because his standards are warped by a lifetime of isolation and talking to slugs, and he knows this on some level.
Secret:
Gurp usually brushes off questions about how he got his scar, saying that it doesn't matter or is none of your business. The reason he refuses to talk about it is because he got the scar from a fight with an immature giant slug from his youth. Gurp managed to kill the slug, but was scarred in the process and unable to eat all of it. Feeling remorse from killing the magnificent beast and wasting its meat, the half-feral young Gurp devoted himself to slugs as a species and the swamp in general as form of penance.
