Meet Deebu!
He is my Pathfinder character, a Kobold, and a devout worshiper of Apsu, the god of dragons. He was raised from an egg by his adoptive mother, the gold dragon Seorsylth, along with a clutch of similarly unique eggs. Much like Seorsylth’s older and more powerful relative, Mengkare, who dabbles in the guidance of mortal races with the island of Hermea, Seorsylth has decided to take the race of kobold-kind under her wing.
Seorsylth has paid a great deal of money for unique kobold eggs, and has searched far and wide for kobolds exhibiting uncommon features such as metallic scales or divine blood. She acts as parent to adopted eggs and village elder to kobold families, providing guidance, protection and teaching, especially with regard to the worship of Apsu. Great care is taken to minimize the expression of the vicious, evil and cruel nature most kobolds are prone to, and every kobold under Seorsylth’s protection is given careful instruction.
Deebu’s silver scales mark him as one of only a handful of his clansmen who exhibit a hint of divine heritage. He considered himself an excellent communicator, and during his 30 year stay under the tutelage of Seorsylth, he felt that all the causes of good might be achieved if only people would talk with one another. This view may have been formed by his ability to solve disputes among his peers with diplomacy, as well as his skill with languages. He was eager to to go on a quest to bring relief and happiness to surface dwellers far and wide. His ability to briefly transform into a larger, silver scaled lizardfolk has always been somewhat of a novelty. Not particularly useful but admirable to his peers.
Four years later that view has suffered quite a bit. He’s regularly attacked or fled from while travelling, and it took three settlements before he found a way to talk to someone before being run out of town. He started to form a better understanding of the kobolds he was told about but never fully internalized. Now he travels under the cover of darkness, using his darkvision to avoid other travelers or dangers.
