Roc

E20 Character Sheet Link
E6 Character Sheet Link

Player: MjhX
Race: Blue Kobold
Class: Gunslinger 15
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Current Location: Io's Blood Isles

Appearance: A blue kobold wearing sundark goggles, shorts from a traveler’s outfit and a black cloak. He also has various kinds of guns on him.

Personality: Despite what his mental scores may tell you, Roc has occasionally been prone to massive bouts of stupidity. Currently, he is trying to figure out ways to keep that in check. Also, his repeated failures and his apparent uselessness compared to the people he adventures with (at least until recently) have kind of hurt his self-esteem a little.

OLD: Kind of like his namesake, Roc USED to not like keeping affiliations. However, he realizes that he would get pulverized if he went adventuring alone, so early on, he simply helped other groups temporarily. He kind of got used to it after traveling with Baltasar Malich for who-knows-how-long. Also, he doesn't relate that well to non-adventuring kobolds.

Other Notes (if you have to use Roc as an NPC for some reason…if your experience with him contradicts these notes, go with your experience):

+ Show Notes for DMs

• Roc doesn't really like alcohol, on the grounds that 1) he doesn't know where he would end up while drunk, and 2) he specializes in firearms.
• Roc isn't really that into kobold culture.
• If Roc is told to disarm before entering a building, he will opt to wait outside instead.
• If the village were threatened, Roc would most likely be fighting alongside the kobolds instead of handling the administrative stuff (although he would still be fighting from the back, as a ranged character).
• He tends to receive PC visitors pretty well, and will probably try to help them.

Background: Roc was originally a servant of a dragon like many kobolds, but he really didn’t like that lifestyle, and the dragon tended to be really harsh (sometimes abusive) to those who didn’t like that life of servitude, so…one day he ran off, taking a sword and some goggles with him.
After a little moving around, Roc found a gunsmith and learned a few things about firearms. He kind of botched his first gun a bit (and he forgot everything about gunsmithing until recently), but he quickly learned to load a gun in a third of the usual time.
Roc used to make a living by looking for either odd jobs, or adventuring groups that might need help with their missions, and making money off of that. However, after he incurred the wrath of Dragonport, that isn't really practical anymore, although he still tries every once in a while. He used to wonder if his former master was still looking for him, but he kind of forgot about that over time.

Membership: The Silver Cranes, Sunless Kobolds, Champions of Io

Achievements:

PIPER FAIL (from The Veiled Society Pt 2): Forget to bring the kobolds along to the next mission.
