Ritzamuul

Ritzamuul (a.k.a. Ritz)

A young, painfully ignorant kobold who happened upon a book that was most definitely not cursed in any way. No. A book which definitely belonged to him and not one of the clients staying a night at the inn he happened to be working at. That would be stealing and stealing is wrong. That's what the barkeep told him. That's what she told him many, many times...

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Rather tall for a kobold, but lanky in general form.

Body Features

Red scales line every inch of his body, save for the soft scales covering his chin, neck, stomach and the underside of his tail.

His scales can appear in a pinkish red hue when he gets warm; a much deeper shade appearing if he happens to be overheating to some degree.

Apparel & Accessories

He wears a pair of simple cloth pants, held up by an old miscolored leather belt.

A tattered poncho is usually strung over his torso.

In the event he leaves the city's gates and sets off into the wilds, he dons a very worn set of leather armor.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Born into the Vriggvogga Tribe of kobold, Ritz's life differed very little from most of his ilk. He had several duties within the tribe, but he excelled beyond his peers in hunting and gathering; so he tended to hold that assignment more often than not.
As he grew older, his boldness rapidly grew in turn. His tribe rarely left their territory, save the small convoy out to other allied tribes surrounding them. Ritz wanted something more... something beyond the high trees and dank caves he scurried around day in and day out.
He began leaving his tribe's grounds late at night with increasing degree, sneaking past whatever sentries happened to be posted. Each attempt made him bolder and thirstier to reach new expanses.
After much internal deliberation, he gathered a small helping of supplies and set off for good. No more of the same trees and rocks and people. Something new. Something far, far off.

Education

Ritz doesn't have exactly have any sort of formal education. He learned a fair share of survival skills growing up in his tribe as well as how to read and speak both Yipyap and Draconic. He doesn't know how to write either language.

After leaving his tribe and going out into the world, he taught himself to understand and speak Common to a serviceable enough level as he interacted with various people throughout his travels. While he knows enough to get by without much trouble, he can't read or write the language.

Employment

Currently unemployed

Works on and off as an inn-hand

Fashions himself a treasure hunter

Accomplishments & Achievements

Traveled further into the world than any other (known) members of his tribe.

Failures & Embarrassments

A small encyclopedia's worth.

Mental Trauma

Despite being dead set on leaving his home, he misses his tribe and family and struggles with homesickness.

He's run into many instances of mistreatment from others during his travels. He'd heard stories of the negativity directed towards his kind growing up, but stories are a far different experience than actual first hand encounters.

Intellectual Characteristics

Not exactly the brightest young lad... even by kobold standards.

Struggles to retain learned information that differs a good deal beyond what he was taught/experienced while growing up.

Be friendly.

Make friends with everyone.

His speech slows down to a more "normal" rate of speed when he speaks in Yipyap or Draconic.
