Shammin Yabari
Shammin Yabari (a.k.a. L'il Shit)
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Shammin Yabari was born in a quaint gnome village hidden in the vast Forest of Mir, the youngest of three. Shammin was a rapscallion as a youth, and he loved to engage in fisticuffs with the other children of the trees. Despite his stature, he frequently won through brute force alone.
During one unfortunate summer morning, a twelve year old Shammin was approached by two boys, both a full foot taller than he. Without word, the three began to fight in a 1v2 battle of fists. Despite being outnumbered, Shammin held his own comfortably. However, unbeknownst to Shammin, another boy lay in wait in a conspicuous bush a few feet away from the brawl. This boy approached Shammin from behind and double-pantsed him, exposing his red, baboon-like ass. Word spread of this embarrassing folly and Shammin became the butt of the joke for a few years in the village. Shammin never forgave himself for this existential defeat in the quest to never be humbled.
Shammin comes from a long family line of blacksmiths, carrying this tradition with him well into adulthood. At the seasoned age of 80 years old, Shammin decided he had been there, done that, and wanted some change in his life. He was destined for bigger and better things, and dreamt of fighting around the world. Armed with his knack for irony, experience in the field, and a willingness to be a "team player", Shammin is determined to bring the fight down into the underdark.
Gender Identity
Cisgender male, hasn't really put a lot of thought into it. With some encouragement could very likely traverse into crossdressing and gender fluidity.
Sexuality
He is asexual. It is unclear if he has experienced sexual attraction to anyone over the course of his life.
Education
Bachelor of Arts in Rock Studies, Smurf University, Magna Cum Laude
Masters, PhD in Metallurgy, Gnome Polytechnic, Cum Laude
Honorary degree from NASA. National Association of Suspicious Adults
Employment
Was employed in his father's business as a professional blacksmith, a common line of work in the Yabari lineage. After leaving the village, he worked odd jobs to make ends meet, with a long break in employment from essentially living as a hermit in the woods.
Accomplishments & Achievements
"Best Ass" award, received in 5th grade as a Carrie-style prank from his peers
Voted most likely to burn out and become a drunk, senior year of gnome high school
National Honor Society
Gamma Nu Omicron chairman, Smurf University, two consecutive years
His father's approval, post-craftmanship of a life-sized steel statue of his dad
Failures & Embarrassments
See personal history. Goes berserk if he is reminded of specific events from his childhood history. Curses himself at every fight he loses, especially when it was an unfair fight.
Mental Trauma
See personal history. Had a lot of abuse from peers due to his ass follies, which stayed with Shammin until he rebooted his life post high school. Lots of social skill and mental fortitude degradation after Shammin left the village, as he lost his sense of purpose in life, struggled to exist, and spent decades alone. Some mild psychosis which appears to have subsided recently. Unclear trauma from experiencing physical death.
Intellectual Characteristics
More intellectually curious than one would assume based on his behavior and appearance. Strong intuition for problem solving which has been bludgeoned over the years, but is slowly shaping up again. Struggles to connect with people on an emotional level. Seemingly encyclopedic knowledge of gnome lore, material science, and regional flora/fauna. When raging, operates ruthlessly with tunnel vision, so needs external forces to reign him in appropriately to be as effective as possible.
Morality & Philosophy
Hard to pin down, especially with an assortment of eccentric opinions that he has independently developed over the years, as well as from living in squalor. He shares general overlap with common thoughts regarding morality, but differs on mostly inconsequential, yet specific details. Considers stealing to be a moral good, but only from deceased individuals or from insured businesses.
Philosophically could be best described as being an anarcho-primitivist, and he values the physical world over the eternal.
Taboos
The nuclear family. Cheddar cheese. The sound of a wagon crossing over gravel.
3'5", 35lb, 140 year old gnome barbarian who has a bit of a screw loose but is loyal to the core and loves to fight for his people. He is also constantly roasting his people.
