Kyki was born into a tribe of goblins who lived not far from Korvosa. Her tribe were skilled glassblowers and alchemists, but always struggled to sell their wares as people distrusted the goblins. Kyki and some of the other goblin children would often scavenge around the outskirts of the city.
On one such scavenging hunt, they were beset by thugs, and while most escaped, Kyki was abducted and brought to Gaedren Lamm.
She spent several years as one of his "lambs". When she was caught stealing a holy symbol from a priestess of Sarenrae, named Marcinia, a city guard almost beat her, but the priestess intervened, letting her keep the holy symbol. Kyki couldn't bring herself to give the holy symbol to Gaedren, instead stashing it away and visiting the temple of Sarenrae and bombarding the priestess with questions, learning of her and her goddess. These trips lasted for a week before Gaedren had her beaten for not bringing in enough loot. Searching her sleeping spot, Gaedren's men found the holy symbol, which led to further beatings and then throwing her out into the gutter.
Kyki would have died there, save that the Marcinia happened to be passing through the slums, healing the poor as she sometimes did.
When Kyki awoke in the temple, she profusely apologised for losing the holy symbol and up to this day, has been doing whatever she can to help. Ever since this near-death experience, she has begun to acquire magical abilities, which she believes to be a blessing from the dawnflower.
Now that she lives at the temple, she has learnt to read and has been able to reconnect with her tribe.
Appearance:
Kyki stands at about 3'2" tall with light green skin. Her eyes are a yellow/golden colour and she has short spiky black hair. Around her neck hangs a holy symbol of Sarenrae made of wood. She wears robes that seem slightly too big for her and a big, pointy wizard hat, with stars crudely painted on it.
Personality:
Shy but inquisitive. Often her own worst critic, especially when she lies or steals, which she is all too used to doing. Enjoys music and dancing, though has no experience at doing it herself. Loves looking at stars and watching a fireplace. Scared of horses.
