Goremeyen Cinayet

The self-proclaimed son of the kobold god Kurtulmak and champion of kobold-kind.

Description:

“Gore” as his friends call him, claims to be descended from the kobold gods (regardless of whether this is true, he does seem to be blessed in some way). Gore sees himself as a champion of the downtrodden. Raised amidst the racially integrated “Mooneye” tribe, Goremeyen was appalled at the mistreatment of kobolds that he saw elsewhere when he ventured into the outside world. Everywhere he turns, Gore sees his people being oppressed, ostracized, and killed—always at the hands of larger creatures, but especially by the Orcs that dominate the city of Old Phlan. Enraged by the violence visited on kobolds, he regularly lashes out the Orcs, earning him the moniker Cinayet (Man-killer) among the kobolds.

Gore is a supreme specimen of kobold virility—Tall (almost 3 and a half feet), Dark (coal-black in fact), Flashing (red) eyes, Clever, Quick, and possessed of a musk that would make most skunks shrink back in disgust. His success with the ladies is a thing of legend (at least among local kobolds), and there are even rumors that he has fathered a half-goblin whelp or two.
