[hider=Jeff the Kobold] Name: Jeff Race: Plain Kobold Race Abilities: Plain kobolds are typically found in the plains-type areas surrounding human cities, towns, and such... as such, they are hunted down by practically every and any starting adventurer. They've also tried to mimic the way humans forge their weapons, and build their cities, but... their short life expectancy coupled with their comparatively weak bodies usually means that these weapons, if they ever get made, are of rather poor quality. These kobolds are also called 'Plains Kobolds', 'Average Kobolds', and just 'Kobolds', in comparison to, say, their mountainous cousins who are always called 'Mountain Kobolds'. [u]Jack Of All Stats:[/u] Plain kobolds are, well, plain. They're not particularly defensive, offensive, speedy, magical, or anything, really. While this makes them more adaptable than most monsters, this also has the problem of them just flat-out being mediocre, even by monster standards. [u]Claws:[/u] Much like the other kobolds, plain kobolds also possess claws, however, pretty much any weapon is preferable in almost any combat situation... they're usually only used when no weapon is available, and running isn't an option. [u]Natural Carpenters:[/u] One thing they ARE good at is building simple shelters that at least somewhat resemble human structures. Said structures aren't usually built to last, however, are always built with the kobold's (small) size in consideration, and are also always built out of wood. [u]Fire Spell:[/u] Plain kobolds have the ability to cast a weak fire ball spell. Said fire spell is more useful in making campfires than it is in combat, though, it does, at least give them an option to use whatever little magic they actually have. Gender: Male Personality: He's usually fairly friendly, and somewhat talkative, and he can take quite a bit of mental and emotional abuse, however, if you happen to cross the line one too many times, he will go ABSOLUTELY BERSERK. He's done this a few times in the past, which made him one of the few nerds that bullies stayed away from during his earlier school years. Let's not forget, though, he's still a nerd, specifically, a gamer nerd, though, he was also into D&D for a while before he died. History (Pre-Mortem): He lived a fairly boring life, and heck, even his death isn't much to talk about. It was the last day of his classes, and he was getting at least 'B's in everything, he was just a few steps closer to getting that degree, and MAYBE doing something with it, and it was midnight, just about the time when he'd usually fall asleep. This time, however, someone broke through his apartment door, not a difficult task, given that it's just made out of cheap wood, and the intruder came with a gun. What he hoped to gain from this student living off of Top Ramen, and cheapo-brand hot dogs, the world will never know. Jeff made the stupid mistake of moving, and worse, bringing his fists to a gun fight. The empty cardboard boxes that were stacked up to his left fell down the moment he moved, revealing him to the intruder, who only had to shoot once... right through the heart. Whether or not the murderer got away, and whether or not he shot more times, will remain unknown, given that the first shot killed Jeff, and now, here we are. Appearance (Text or image, whatever works): Standing at about two feet, now, he's... easily punted by even some of the weaker human wizards, unfortunately. His tail is oddly long for his kind, as is his snout for some unknown reason. He has greyish blue scales, green eyes, and black claws. He also seems to be wearing some dusty, torn up leather armor for some odd reason, though, he still lacks a weapon of any kind. Other: Nothing, really. I'd prefer if I kept this character sort of kobold like, in that he'd be a reptilian almost humanoid, I just don't want him turning into, say, an ogre, or something. This was the shortest app I've ever made... odd. [/hider]
