Character Concept: Poro Grathssik, Kobold Oracle[Pathfinder]
Posted: 01 Apr 2015 22:46So this little lady had been floating around in my head for a little while, whenever I say kobold Oracle people think
Instead I have a little more friendly little creature in mind, with a strange upbringing
Born a Gold Scaled Kobold into a tribe under rule of a Blue Dragon, the dragon immediately saw a way to exploit her, she was raised away from the tribe, taught to be good, that they guarded the den of a Golden Dragon, that she was born to be a herald.
This she believed utterly, she was brought out to meet Good and Neutral adventuring parties hunting the Blue master, those that would probably be turned away by claims of it being a Gold Dragon den, especially from a Kobold that appeaBlue good and told the truth.
But eventually she learned of the truth, that her upbringing was a lie, and immediately lost usefulness. Without the protection of the dragon she was left to the cruelty of her clan, who had long hated her for her scales and the treatment she received in her grooming.
Not long after this the den was attacked, by a real gold dragon, seeing this as a response to her clans actions she fled the caves, awed at the dragon she knew that this was a call from the gods, that she was destined in some way for such glory.
She believes that she is the reincarnation of a golden dragon, that exploration of her mystery will reveal the secret of returning to her true form, and also that the spirits of her former kin, killed by a divine intervention to assist her, are what haunt and curse her to this day.
After leaving the tribe she wandered briefly before bumping into a travelling show, which contained dodgier types than a lost kobold. With a flair for the dramatic, her charisma and the mysticism of her curse and of course the oddity of her race, she was recruited as a fortune teller, where she has remained, happily travelling from town to town, where she spends her free time eagerly reading up on lore, trying to discover more about herself.
(More to come)
