Ysboa

STATS
Name: Ysboa
Age: Established Young Adult
Gender: Male
Race: Goblin
Class: Hermit

Description: Ysboa has an unusual skintone that's neither very human nor very orcish/goblin-esque. He prefers solitude anyway so who cares? Ysboa has straight dark brown hair that he hacks of when it becomes a nuissance. He finds a moustache tickles but is too lazy to shave daily so he usually has some style of beard. His bushy eyebrows and permanent wrinkled forehead -not too mention his two lower canines that jut out from his mouth- give him an unfriendly air but really, he's just terribly near-sighted. His ears are pointed and his nose is straight. All in all he has pretty delicate features for a goblin that hint that his mother might have been one of a more delicate race (elf or pixie maybe?). Either way, Ysboa never met his parents, as is usually the case with goblins. Instead of sticking with the other goblins, he decided to strike out on his own as soon as he was old enough to support himself and he's not looked back.
Personality: Ysboa is pragmatic, down-to-earth and socially awkward. Since he's not used to company, he'll hardly talk. He prefers to steer clear of trouble and that extends to troublesome people and situations that require any type of moral dedication. Ysboa doesn't care about injustice or politics. He just wants to be left alone.
Home: Ysboa lives in a lush cave situated at the edge of a pool that's fed by a small waterfall. the waterfall is not big enough to hide the entrance to his home, but the cold pool water does deter most from investigating.
Skills: Setting traps, Fishing, surprisingly Sane

STORY
Ysboa cast out his line and sat down on the rock that jutted out over the pool that flanked his home. The solitary Goblin eked out a simple living out in the forest. There was little that he needed. There was enough food in the forest to sustain him, there was fresh water and ample sunlight. He could make or repair furniture, carve little statues and cook. When the mood struck he painted his walls with whatever came to mind.
If asked, Ysboa would say that his lofe was complete. However, the powers that be declared otherwise. Was is a prank or was it a careful ploy? Whatever may be the case, a vortex portel opened up in the pool below Ysboa, sucked him in and disposited him onto the Sands at Ryslen. The people there were used to much more mysterious entrances so they hardly blinked.
But Ysboa froze as many pairs of eyes looked. If he was a burrowing creature, he'd have sought refuge into the sand at once, but sadly his talents didn't extend to tunneling. Ysboa could not flee, there was no shadow to cloak him, no rocks to shield him.
But there were dragons.
A yellowy-green male Geperna hatchling had prowled around the hatching sands, sniffing at candidates, looking at spectators, casting out his voice. But none that met his eyes or replied to his pleas were right. Suddenly a newcomer appeared. The dragon turned his head and evaluated the human with pointy ears and a greenish skintone. Probing, he found images of a wonderful home and a simple life.
"Excuse me.... may we speak?" he asked nicely.
Ysboa glanced up, at least the dragon looked to be friendly.
"Yes?"
"Is that truly your home?"
Ysboa was shown the visions that came straight from his memory. He nodded.
"Can I live with you?"
"Why?" Ysboa croaked.
"I think I'd like it there...?" came the hesitant reply of the hatchling.
Somewhere in the universe higher power grinned and gave Ysboa the little push he needed, crashing him straight into the hatchling's waiting forelimbs.
"My name is Yskwa'Bith." the hatchling declared proudly.

ADULT
"Would you mind me disappearing for a bit?" Yskwa asked his bond.
Ysboa looked up and shook his head.
"You're free to do your thing." he said telepathically.
Once the goblin had figured out that they could communicate like this, he'd preferred it to actually talking. It had been a big adjustment but even Ysboa had to admit that the green dragon had grown on him. There was something relaxing about having a partner to guard their home, to hunt with and to share a quiet evening.
"Aren't you curious about where I'm going?"
"You forget the telepathic link, I know the direction your thoughts have gone into. Please go take care of it."
"You're welcome to join me."
"Some things are best left unshared."

=> it's very possible that Ysboa won't be joining Yskwa'Bith when he ventures out to a flight. But who knows? Maybe the goblin will mellow a bit if Yskwa insists.
