Appearance:

Etta is small, only a little over 4 feet tall, and very strong. Her skin is fair, tinged a bit reddish. Her hair is rather dirty, a dirty blonde color, and she wears it in a ponytail tied with a hemp cord. She has tufts of hair on the nape of her neck. Her eyes are a hazel color and are quite large. She has a long, pointed nose and sloping cheekbones, and a chin that's too small for her mouth. Etta wears only a pair of brown leather boots and a leather girdle that holds her belt pouch and shortsword.

Interaction:

Etta is a half-goblin of good nature. She is kind and pleasant, and often jokes and laughs. She is clever and will use subterfuge to get what she wants. She reads a lot and speaks three languages. Etta is always looking for a book or scroll to read or to study. She looks forward to the day when she will be able to read all the books in the world.

Background:

Etta was a half-goblin, who was born in a small town in the North. She was always a little on the small side, though very strong for her size. Her father found that she had a small talent for smithing, so he encouraged her to develop her talents. He taught her the skills of a smith, putting her to work shaping metal when she was small. She loved to work with her hands, however, and never really took to smithcraft.

Combat / Skills:

Etta is a master of martial arts. She is a 3rd level monk. She uses a monk's belt for a belt, and carries her monk's staff. Etta can cast cure wounds, detect magic, and inflict light wounds once per day each. She has the following spell-like abilities: Charm Person, Invisibility, Invisibility Sphere, and Sleep. In combat, Etta uses her staff to attack her foes, and uses her monk's belt to increase her AC. Etta is known to rely on her monk's staff more than any other weapon. She uses subterfuge to gain a tactical advantage over her foes, often casting a quickened Invisibility Sphere and then following that up with a barrage of haymakers from her staff.

Equipment:

Etta carries a monk's staff, which is a quarterstaff that can be used to strike. It also has two razor-sharp blades that can be used for defense. The staff's primary purpose is to strike at an enemy's AC, and Etta will attempt to use it to do so. Etta is adept at jumping and will often jump to attack foes, or to gain a tactical advantage in a fight. She will also attempt to make use of her monk's belt to increase her AC. She always carries a pearl (worth 500 gp) and a spellbook (which contains all spells that Etta can cast), and she will always carry a pearl.
