The group originally consisted of all sorts of goblins, big and small alike, but after setting out into the forest, more and more goblins split out into smaller hunting parties, drifting apart and looking for their own little opportunities. Not that Teva disagreed with that kind of approach, mind you, more food for her on the long run, but she appreciated the safety that numbers gave to the relatively individually weak goblins.

She’d tried to make small talk with the ones that stuck with her as they walked among the thick underbrush of the forest. The big and quiet one, Son as he’d come to introduce himself, lead the way in front, with Teva and another female goblin trailing behind him. Unfortunately, it seemed that Son had either lucked out in the brains department despite his physical prowess, or he’d decided that talking was a waste of his breath, instead focusing on the task at hand; brushing aside branches and vines and opening a path for the rest of them to walk on.

While he was doing that, Teva conversed with Gee. The female gob was unlike Teva, shy and skittish, she didn’t seem ready for something as difficult as hunting, and in her mind Teva had already relegated her to gathering and herb picking roles. She’d managed to find a relatively straight piece of wood almost twice her height in length, cradling it in her arms while nervously scanning her surroundings for any sort of enemy that might ambush them. Teva doubted she could even use the stick as a weapon, herself very much preferring rocks as her weapon of choice. While they walked, she’d pick up and store any middle-sized rock that looked relatively sharp. A makeshift bag of sorts was tied around her waist, made from a piece of cloth she’d torn off the rag she wore as clothes. Teva would test the rocks’ weight so that they weren’t too heavy for her to carry but good enough to cause some damage were she to throw them at a fleshly target.

She was squatting down to pick up another rock when she noticed Son suddenly stopping in his tracks, the ever present scowl on his face deepening. He’d heard something shuffling among the trees. Just as the big goblin raised the short, club-like piece of wood he carried around in front of him, ready to pounce at a potential enemy, a familiar green head donning a black tuft of hair popped from behind a tree, causing the three goblins to visibly relax. Son let out a heavy gruff, lowered his weapon and walked over to a fallen tree trunk to sit and rest while Kol, the fourth and last member of their group skipped over to Teva and Gee.

Kol was… let’s just say that even Teva didn’t know where Kol got all his energy from. The greenskin was supposed to be starving and yet, he dashed around the forest like he owned the place. At least he brought them information on potential enemies that might be in the vicinity every time he returned, or else Teva might’ve put an end to his little expeditions even before they’d started. It also didn’t help that he carried that toothy grin on his face wherever he went, except this time.

Kol’s face was flushed, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. He took some time to regain his breath before laying out the news to them: he’d found something dangerous ahead.

“It’s big and pink!” Kol said between huffs. “And it walks on two legs,” he added, making stomping sounds with his feet as if to emphasize its weight.
“Really?” Teva questioned curiously. “How big are we talking about?”
“Twice your height, easily taller than Son!” Kol answered wide-eyed. Son visibly tensed in his seat, clutching his club tightly upon hearing the news.
“Sounds scary, let’s igno-” Gee tried to chime in but was interrupted by the big gob’s heavy voice.
“No. I’m hungry. I want meat. We fight.” With a few short sentences, Son made his wishes known to the party, and Teva somehow agreed with him.
“Yes, we could go forage fruit and berries, but we need something more substantial if we’re to survive. I just don’t know if we can get out of this unscathed…”
“It seemed hurt!” Kol interjected. “Couldn’t put much weight on one leg,” he continued, pointing at his right leg.

Although the three smaller goblins gravitated around Son due to his impressive, to them at least, physique, Teva had emerged as the undisputed leader, her force of personality that had inspired such a large group of goblins to go out and hunt having gained their respect. “Hmm, alright, let’s do it this way then…”

---

Teva watched as everyone got into position before signaling Kol to reveal himself. The short goblin suddenly jumped from behind the nearby shrubbery with a nervous smile on his face. “Hey, you big, dumb, floppy eared creature, bow down before me, Kol the Fabulous!” he shouted at the orc to get its attention. Immediately the orc swiveled around with a snarl, but was greeted with a faceful of dirt, blinding it momentarily. Kol used this chance to run around the orc and tackle it on the back of its weaker knee, hoping to cause it to stumble and fall.

Teva would then quickly climb up a nearby tree, giving her a vantage point from where she could throw rocks at the orc from above, while Son would charge in yelling a battle-cry, club tightly clutched in both hands in an overhead swing that would come down with force on top of the orc’s head. Despite his apparent strength, Teva wasn’t sure one solid swing would be enough to incapacitate the pink beast, but she hoped Son and Kol would be able to distract the orc long enough for her to get a few good hits in. She aimed at its face, more importantly its eyes. The dirt was a temporary measure used to catch the orc off-guard, but If she could permanently blind the beast their chances of killing it would immediately increase by a lot.

From where she was perched, Teva would also be able to spot Gee, hidden under a brush near where the fight was taking place. She would be tasked with keeping an eye at the orc’s legs for when it stood up again. Using the long stick she carried around, she would extend it from under the brush towards the orc’s feet in an attempt to make it trip once more and create an opening for the other goblins to pummel it to the ground again. Teva was sure that even a timid goblin like her would find this task simple enough to do, and even if Gee failed to trip the orc, Teva had told Kol and Son to lead the orc near the tree she would be on so that see would have the chance to jump from above, using her flexibility to lock her arms around the orc’s neck to choke it out.

@RC3 A question, do Absorption uses carry over after a rank up if we haven't used them all up?

i.e I have 6/8 and I rank up, now I have (8+6=)14/8

Day 1

Teva's little eyes opened up suddenly, only to be met with an utterly ugly face of something that could have easily come right out of some fantasy novel, a Goblin. She froze, more out of sheer shock rather than fear. Silently, she scanned the greenskin's face, her eyes wide open, her curiosity piqued. After looking at her for a few moments, the goblin above her murmured something her tiny baby brain couldn't even begin to comprehend before lightly tapping on her head with one long, bony finger, and Teva blacked out.

Day 2

Teva was greeted not by the familiar face of the green goblin from before but that of a rocky wall a few feet above her. She looked right and left, and quickly realized that she was inside some sort of cave. The gray rag that was covering her served as a makeshift blanket, and her hands moved over it, her fingertips feeling it’s relatively soft and smooth texture. Speaking of her hands, compared to the day before, they had grown, now longer and more defined. Teva slowly raised them up, bringing them above her face and was immediately overtaken by a second bout of shock – her skin was green! Even her two days old brain could make the connection between her skin color and the goblin from yesterday, and the realization that she was a Goblin now caused her to black out once more.

Day 3

Something shuffled near her, making Teva murmur in her sleep and clutch her blanket closer to her body. Unfortunately, what she'd said might have been misunderstood by whatever had heard her, so much so that it opted to kick at her with its feet. The kick glanced her body, only finding her arm, but even so she was startled awake. Groggily she willed herself to sit up from where she lay and, while rubbing one of her eyes, looked around to find the perpetrator of the heinous crime of disturbing her sleep.

Right beside her, a goblin roughly one and a half her size snored peacefully, clutching its very own blanket. A tinge of anger flared up inside her which gave her enough strength to stand up and kick back at it with her own foot, an action she immediately regretted. Her soft foot found the larger goblin’s hard kneecap with a heavy thump. Teva recoiled back from the impact and let out a pained screech along with multiple expletives. Fortunately, it seemed the male gob didn’t even notice her kick. It mumbled in its sleep a little before switching sides, turning its back at her.

Begrudgingly, Teva grabbed her rag of a blanket from the ground and draped it over herself before limping towards a large rock a few feet away whereupon she sat. While rubbing away at her foot, trying to make the pain go away, Teva looked around the cave some more. She had come to accept her new reality relatively quickly after realizing she had somehow been reincarnated into a new world, to a body of a goblin no less. Whenever she tried to remember something from her past, she was overcome with headaches that made her want to split her head in half, and so she’d decided to not delve on it too deeply. Instead, Teva chose to agree with the wishes of her grumbling stomach. Much like the goblins sprawled around the cave, her own body required fuel to keep on going, food and water both. Some had already marched outside their little cave dwelling in search for a meal, and she felt her instincts egg her on to follow in their steps.

After the pain on her foot had receded, she stood up and walked over to a small group of goblins huddled together in a remote corner of the cave. She put on her best smile and quickly integrated herself into the group, and after a while had them all eager to venture out into the forest in order to forage some food or even hunt, should they be so lucky as to come upon something weak enough they could kill. Armed with sticks, rocks, rags and empty bellies, they left the safety of their home for the first time of many to come...

Goblin Quest

Name: Teva

Age: Day 3

Gender: Female

Race: Goblin

Appearance: Teva has the typical goblin physique one would expect from her race. Short and skinny yet quick on her feet, with a relatively large head to body ratio and over-exaggerated facial proportions. She has no hair on herself except her scalp, and she usually wears whatever rags she can salvage that can cover and protect her from the cold.

Level: 1

Personality: Teva has a carefree attitude, always trying to just get along with others. She will help whenever and wherever she is needed, even for the little things, cause you know what they say: "It's the little things that matter." She is quite single-minded when it comes to her desires, and you bet once she sets a goal she will not stop until she has achieved it, no matter how long it takes. This, unfortunately, means that she can be prone to making bad or rushed decisions sometimes and can find herself in tricky situations. Nevertheless, even though she might not be one to overly think things before acting, the sheer energy she brings to the table cannot be underestimated one bit.

Past Life:

Bad things happen to the best of us

Teva was born to swim. Her parents, her peers and everyone on her immediate circle of contacts gave this answer whenever asked what was the best thing about her. Born in a small village off the coast of Sicily to two loving parents, she immediately found her calling in the form of swimming when she first laid her eyes upon the ocean. Whenever the weather was clear enough, one was bound to find Teva somewhere in the beach swimming.

Thus, it is needless to say that when she grew up she pursued a career out of her love. She quickly became a rising star, and by age 15 she was a regional middle-school champion in three different categories, and 3 years later she conquered the national stage as a senior in high-school. After graduating, she studied sports science while also juggling with being an active member of Italy's Olympic swimming team. She was on track to obtain multiple gold medals, but the stars aligned to bring misfortune to her and her family.

At age 25 she was the victim of a great white shark attack off the coast of California while on a visit to the US for a swimming exhibition. She survived, but her lower extremities did not. When she woke up, she found herself in the hospital bed, her legs amputated. Suddenly having lost her ability to walk, much less to swim, reduced her to a shell of her former self. She would not talk to her family nor her friends, and would barely touch her meals. She spent most of the time looking at the view of the ocean from the window to her hospital room, lamenting her fate. 15 days were all she could take before she dragged her body off the hospital bed and onto a wheelchair, unbeknownst to the nurses, and wheeled herself to the window from where she climbed and jumped. One of her last thoughts was how the weightlessness of falling reminded her so much of swimming, the thought of which brought a smile to her face.
