Fluffy, the Kobold
A small kobold of 25 pounds, with baby blue skin that stood out amongst all the other kobolds, he couldn't explain why he looked the way he did, he didn't know either of his parents, but the other kobolds didn't care, he didn't belong there. He didn't feel the need to fight the way all the others seemed to, he didn't want to hurt anyone.
He had only ever known serving his masters and being punished when he didn't and was very timid because of it. Born into slavery he had only ever heard of the outside world from the older kobolds, they told stories of a city not far from here that sounded magical. He would occasionally sneak out and just sit in the dirt and look at the sky, imagining what it would be like to be free. Any time there were new people at the temple that could possibly get him out of there, the Toy Maker would test all of his new inventions on them, killing almost all of them immediately. The ones that didn't die to the Toy Maker would get matched up against the young kobolds in a one on one fight, as to train them. But the kobolds got to greedy, they started taking more and more people at a time, until they took one too many and the people fought back, taking down the Toy Maker and a bunch of the kobold warriors in training. The little blue kobold saw his chance and sided with the people, he answered every question and told them everything he knew in hopes they would save him from this hell, he helped them figure out a riddle that the kobold general could not figure out for years. The general, seeing the bloodbath that was his young kobold warriors in training, let them go free, but not before one of their own had fallen.
"Fluffy" (as dubbed by the people that saved him) now stays in the Ravens Nest with his trusted friend Ava, and works for Alros doing dishes and cleaning tables to pay his way. He learns more about how the city works with every passing day, and is quite constantly in awe of his surroundings.
He feels safe and loved by the people around him, which is not something he's ever felt in his life on this earth.
