Appearance:

Aardvink stands at just over three feet tall and has a greenish-grey complexion. His nose is long and pointed, resembling an actual aardvark's snout. He has large, round glasses perched on his small, pointy ears.

Interaction:

Aardvink is the town's resident inventor and tinkerer, and can often be found in his workshop, surrounded by half-finished contraptions and tools. He is extremely absent-minded and often forgets to finish his projects or even remember what he was working on in the first place. Despite this, he is a kind and friendly goblin, always willing to share his knowledge and inventions with others. He is also incredibly accident-prone and has caused many mishaps in the town with his experiments gone wrong. Because of this, the townsfolk are wary of him, but they know that he means well and is a valuable member of the community.

Background:

Aardvink was born into a band of goblin thieves, but he never quite fit in with their lifestyle. Instead of stealing and causing mischief, he was always tinkering with scraps and inventing new gadgets. When his tribe was attacked by adventurers, Aardvink used his inventions to defend his people. Impressed by his ingenuity and potential, a passing artificer took him in and trained him in the ways of artifice. Aardvink eventually left his mentor's side to travel and explore, but he eventually settled in the town, using his skills to help the community and continue his inventing.

Combat / Skills:

Aardvink is not a fighter, and will try to avoid combat if possible. But if forced into a fight, he will use his artificer tools to create makeshift weapons and traps. He is surprisingly skilled in combat despite his absent-mindedness and can be resourceful in a fight.

Equipment:

Aardvink always carries his artificer's tools with him, which he can use to create a variety of gadgets and contraptions. He also has a bag of holding filled with various scraps and inventions.
