[Aristocles]

Breden

Age: 5

Sex: Male

Appearance: About average size for a goblin male (about 3 feet 3 inches), with orange-red hair. See below for a picture.

Breden

Older Picture

Background: One of a litter of seven children, he was one of five to survive and the oldest male to make it past the harsh winter in which he was born. Breden is a decent hunter but unproven in battle and only a mediocre fighter in the few arena matches he's ever been in. As such, he has had few opportunities for mating with females, a state of affairs he hopes to change soon. He gets along well with male and female goblins alike, but most females have 'friendzoned' him, as they tend to think he's cute and nice, but wouldn't make a good sire for their kids.

Abilities: Breden is a hunter, skilled with a spear and dagger. His average strength prevents him from taking on large quarries alone, but he can definitely feed himself with smaller catches such as rabbits and squirrels, and he is a good tracker, a stealthy stalker, and good at climbing trees.

Clothing/Equipment: A four-foot long spear with a stone dagger and a brown loincloth.

Siwa

Age: 4

Sex: Female

Appearance: She stands 3 feet 1 inch, with brown hair. See her picture for more details.

Siwa

Background: Unusually, Siwa was the only child born in what would have been her litter. As such, she was given all of her mother's attention and had the opportunity to learn quite a bit from her, especially how to give rubdowns. When Siwa was one, she ventured to the nearby human town and quickly developed a liking for human things. Siwa is almost the only goblin in her tribe who regularly visits the humans, who seem to like her. She sometimes dances for the owner of a human tavern, and she uses what few coins she is tipped to buy food. Being the closest thing that the goblins in her tribe have to a city girl, she is notoriously poor at farming or catching food herself.

Abilities: Siwa is a skilled dancer, adept at giving massages, and has a way with words.

Clothing/Equipment: Apart from her loincloth and top piece, she uses very little else. That said, she has several human possessions in her hut, even if she keeps them for display and not use.

Note: Despite being a dancer and masseuse, she is not unusually promiscuous for a female goblin, despite the stereotypes.

Clothing/Equipment: Ashe wears clothes that cover most parts of her body as she was raised in a human household. She also carries with her a pouch of herbs and a potion holder.

History

Ashe was born in a different goblin tribe which has been destroyed by humans as it got very aggressive and attacked a local town. She was saved by an older human couple who couldn't have children of their own when they found her mother's corpse in the woods with Ashe in her arms, just a few days old baby.
She lived a sheltered life for a goblin as she always had to hide when other humans were around. Most of her skills were taught by her human father which was a retired healer.
At the age of 5, her parents, died of old age but not before pointing Ashe towards a tribe of goblins in order for her to be with her own kind.
While it was hard for her to be accepted in the tribe, she managed to secure her position as a non-magical healer.

Background: The Green-Eye tribe were the oldest of the goblin tribes in the woods but their ways of life were alien to others within the other tribes. The Green-Eyes had a special connection to these woods and the animals of the forest. When other tribes were ransacking and pillaging, his tribe fed themselves on the bounties their Druids grew and made sure the balance was always kept. The tribes saw this as weakness and every now and then attempted to raid their grove, many times they failed. Horror stories are told to young goblins of the very trees uprooting to crush dozens, brambles strangling others to death and animals coming in droves in the Green-Eyes defense. But one fateful day dark elves came and burned their grove and took whatever survivors left as slaves. Twig was only 13 at the time still a novice Druid and the Arch-Druid of his tribe had a vision the night before: Of Twig alone, the last surviving Green-Eye and a burnt grove.

Twig was sent away that night and he wandered alone and scared, he wandered for hours it seemed. It was midnight and several times he heard something in the bushes. Panicked Twig ran, only to pinned by a ogre that stepped out in front of him. Twig was lucky that night, because just as the ogre raised his club a chorus of howls and then Twig understood he found his new family.

The details of what happened to the ogre was vague, Twig had fainted from having his body nearly crushed but the following morning he awoke to find a large wolf padding back and forth as if pacing. It noticed Twig was awake and sat in front of him on his haunches.

Twig noticed the bodies of several wolves around them and Twig realized the wolf much like Twig was the last survivor.
And they forged a bond that day, it was their destiny to carry on their legacy.

It was Twig's destiny to ensure his bloodline survived.

[Aristocles]

@Shadow Dragon

Looks mostly good. Just, where would he have learned his magic from?

Also, while I'm sure you were limited by the picture, goblins in this RP don't use footwear. If you like, Hero Forge is a good site for visualizing your characters in a more exact way.

[Shadow Dragon]

That better?

[Aristocles]

Yes. Nice update.
