Too many Ked kill by myself. Especially if one of them took an axe to the head. That mega strong longshank! Tell others? Look for secret route in! Yes! Ked looks around for cracks in the city walls, easily climbed fortifications, or other alternate paths in around these humans.
After that he will head back to tell the rest of the party about the guards, and any secret routes in he might have found.
I heard that. Stupid Tarki thinks he's a human the way he rides in his stupid armor. Ked should stab him right in his stupid neck and paint his stupid armor red. Maybe later. Ked gritted his teeth as he snuck rapidly to the town to scout out. He could hear the voices whispering now that he was alone. "Stab humans now. Stab Tarki when there are no longshanks. Just like you stabbed the other Metaldeaths, Ked. Also, show some consistency in when you use your name or self-referential words, like I or me. You sound like an idiot. You're smarter than that." What? What he mean? Knife strange. Ked no get 'consistency'. Whatever. Am by town soon. I need to find stupid meat to tell about.
Ked scratched his head and looks up to Tarki. "You stoopid Goblin. Goblins sneak. Goblins stab. Goblins burn. Ugh. I go ahead an' sneak if you too stoopid to know how. Any come with? Nah. You make me stand out. Ked is invisible!" Ked grins and ducks, and his skin nearly blends in with the surrounding tall grass.
"Ked come back, and I tell yous all how many dumb pinkies there is. Maybe stab some. Probably stab one if sleep. Baby to eat? Will tell you." Ked starts to scout ahead of the others with plans to come back and tell them what he sees. Even looking straight at him, and knowing where he is, he seems to seem nearly invisible, with barely an outline around.
Just checking in. Gonna wait until everyone's ready to post in earnest. So...have we already had a pep talk from the chief, or what? Pretty sure we'd want to get some info before storming in. Goblins aren't stupid. They're crazy, but they're not stupid. On a side note, I forgot to add my size bonus for stealth. I AM TEH INVISIBLIST!
"Stab! We stabs them first! Blood not as much if you burn first. You stab the people and the horses and dogs.to ..and then you burn the houses and the books and...and really anything that doesn't have blood. You silly Gobbo, don't you know that? People burn so slow and little, it's not even fun, but they bleed so fast!" Ked frowns and kicks a skull disappointed. "Gonna be nothin' left to stab if we burn everything...oh wait, I know! Cut em in half, and we burn half, first, stab second, an half we cut first, burn second! See. Am wisest goblin ever. Should be chief! Bring Ked food, and women, and blood, and fire. All in same bowl."
"Not listen to knives? But I need knives to get to the pretty blood! It's so pretty! All bright and shiny and tasty...for a while...and then it goes dull...and I need to get more. Fire is fun, but fire doesn't leave pretty blood. So pretty..."
"Ack! NOT my fault, the knives told-ed for me to do it!" Dives behind a wall and/or a convenient other goblin to take the hit.
"Ooh, I knows a good game!" Ked starts juggling daggers to kill the time, smiling stupidly. "Okay, see, first you looks at em going up...and...then..." Kid's grin gets malevolent suddenly. "Catch Dikdik!"
Ked proceeds to fall backwards giggling maniacally holding his belly.
"Read? Read!? He's an imposter, get him!!!" Charging sneak dagger stab mode executed.
Yep, Ked has Roll With It, because as a scout, charging sneak attack makes that feat so relevant, considering partial charges can be done when you're staggered.
Ked is done, except for equipment, which shouldn't take long. Also new avatar! He's fast, stealthy, and likes cutting stuff. Sure, he likes fire, but he really likes blood, because it's such a pretty color, and tasty, and it sprays so much when you cut right here or there. He's dang near invisible when he wants to be, and has been a scout for as long as he can remember. (If Metaldeath isn't this clan's name, he could have betrayed them for funzies and free food, because chaotic evil...Or I can just change his name since I haven't posted ten times yet.) He's pretty sure his knives have been talking to him, telling him to paint them red, or that he's secretly a person in a human's game, or that plums are the heart of trees, and other things, but nobody else believes him when he tries to tell them.
I never got to use this alias I made years ago for a previous PbP. I'm not a "make an alias before I'm even accepted" guy. This gives you an idea how I feel about goblins. An all goblin party (that isn't just an iteration of We Be Goblins) sounds awesome.
I would of course tweak this guy as necessary. It was so long ago I would want to update it anyway.
Thanks! This is thegreenteagamer's character. Ked is a goblin rogue, of the knife master and scout archetypes. He's been on the ship for a few weeks now, having been caught stowed away in the past, the captain thought him amusing and kept Ked on to hunt rats in the bilges. Ked stands at just under 3 feet tall, short even by goblin standards, but his frame is broad for one of his species. His eyes are blood red and often squinty, as if he's trying to make out what he's looking at. His skin is a deep gray that seems to slightly change color to match his surroundings (reflected in the color thief trait). Ked never was quite as vicious as other goblins. He never went out of his way to torture small animals, hunt human children, or even raid villages. Oh, it's not that he thought it was morally wrong or anything, he just never saw the point. Not that he was outgoing, moral, or helpful in any way; Ked was way too selfish for that. He simply didn't -care- for most of those typical goblin pastimes. Except for feasting, of course. Ked may have been atypical, but he was still a goblin. x10 |
