About Squeeze BitsBackground:
Born in the harsh Nar-Voth, Squeeze had the typical upbringing of the local Goblins: barely surviving most of the time and learning to hide and navigate the lands as stealthily as possible. Poorer than the usual, his tribe - the Pointyteeth - lived day by day fighting for food with the local animals, looking a lot more uncivilized than it would be supposed. Masters of sharpening their teeth to better chew the meat of the rare hunts (but, especially, to better survive drinking the "soups" from the tribe cook, a mix of rocks and hardcrusted bugs), the Pointyteeth were capable hunters and scavengers, specializing in using any improvised tool they could find to make means match the ends. A little before completing his first decade of life, Squeeze got lost in the dark caves of giant spiders - said to be the pets of a demoniac drider which lived nearby. Afraid of ending up with his skinny bones chewed by the drow aberration, the not-too-intelligent goblin decided to navigate the tunnels even further. After days - maybe weeks - starving and feeding off the rare insects he'd find on his way, he finally arrived on a forked pathway that led him to Telderist. While initially Squeeze avoided the city itself, living on the outskirts, the infant goblin still approached the shores with fascination, gorging himself of the fish swimming around. There he found his true calling; the sea creatures tasted much, much better than the soup of rocks from his earlier childhood. The sea was the path of his soul, and so he'd spend his days and nights swimming and fishing whatever he could, most of the time not even able to eat everything he caught. It was at that point that a ship, sailing nearby, spotted the distracted green teen. As a couple years had passed, he was much more proficient at that point, improvising nets and poles to catch the local crabs and blacktailed fishes. Yet, the pirates of the
The first weeks were extra tough for Squeeze. Forced to wash the galleys and thrown overboard daily - leashed in a long rusty chain - as to catch fishes for the crew, he felt tired and deprived of the great freedom his shores were bringing. Every night, however, he'd chew the chain with his powerful teeth, until the day he freed himself and hastily darted through the ship. He was caught by the pirates, but not before he impressed even more the Captain Covenant Joole. Joole was a fat and tall half-orc with powerful arms, but even he had difficulties holding the small goblin. After a while the pirates burst into laughing, and even apologized to Squeeze. At that point, they genuinely offered him a job on the ship as a true member of the crew. The goblin would still have his tasks, like everybody else, but would be able to better eat and share the plunder. The stray Pointyteeth accepted and loved each day ever since. As hard as the life of a Crimson Sailor could be - as dangerous as their activities frequently were - he was now a true child of the sea, and would climb the ropes and hang on the masts with the reckless abandon of a happy child around his toys. The Hanging Halfling sailed the years terrorizing the Dying Sea, turning the Grey Docks into their home, and Squeeze was part of that adventure. And now, he maybe wanted more. Under the radar of the Nightrunngers Guild as an ideal tracker for the coasts and caves of the Darklands, a different shape of plunder was about to tempt the goblin into a new breed of adventure... Certainly deadlier than his current one.
