Skudge

"Meats for weeks! Oh, who's....me's? Happy rats people!"

Persona
Extremely curious, and friendly to almost anyone he encounters (to a fault), Skudge is a clumsy, compulsive hoarder. He can frequently be found collecting and storing items considered to be garbage or junk by most individuals, and even holding onto food items well past it's date of proper use. Above all else, he fears serpents, soldiers or guards, the sound of metal crashing, and running out of emergency food.

Origins
Born under Clan Fa' Minara, buried deep below the then-beginning overworld venture by Verminlord Skrol, Skudge was found to be much less intelligent and coordinated than his counterparts, and after two-and-a-half decades, was dispatched on a 'secret mission' to the above world, supposedly by Ratnir himself, in an attempt to remove him from society.

The Mission
Steadfast in his 'mission' to wreak thieving havoc across the overworld, Skudge began his crusade by heading to the nearest settlement to him, a local winery. Finding it temporarily unguarded, he began rummaging through some of the stock which had been briefly left outside, only to be spotted and confronted by a wandering Foraith named Megandrel. Offering up some of the wine in exchange for his release, he and the traveler escaped into the nearby treeline and became exceedingly drunk, during which Megandrel fell asleep. Purely out of inherent nature, Skudge nearly began eating the Foraith before finding himself with a dagger to his throat. The incident was miraculously forgiven, even having strengthened the small bond the two had made, and both set out to accomplish their individual goals together.
