Sik

Sik is a Kobold from the monsters' village hidden in the Highlanders Mountains.

Characteristics

Physical features

The ruby-scaled kobold’s wiry musculature is quite obviously well-toned even under the battered plate armor he shoulders without apparent effort. His deeply set eyes, as crimson as freshly shed blood, perfectly set off his vermilion tabard. Across his proportionately broad back, a pair of sheathed weapons are strapped to a practical leather harness: a longsword that has seen more than its share of battle, and a javelin, barbed on both sides and styled after a bolt of thrown lightning.

History

Sik used to live in a cave within the highlander mountain, but yearned for a life of adventure, and set on a journey to Holypertuis, hoping to become an adventurer.
In 1130 AD Nesiven Rose, Flo Stormcry, Seraphine Cresilo, Sik, Ignis, and Sophia Tailor were all young adventurers, inexperienced, who naturally gathered as they embarked on similar quests. Their first mission was to deal with an Ogre terrorizing a nearby settlement not far from Holypertuis.
Upon confronting the Ogre, they discovered it was protected by a group of goblins and bugbears. Sophia, a bard, managed to charm one of the bugbears and convinced them that it would be best for the goblins and bugbears to leave as the adventurers would handle the ogres. Agreeing, the goblins and bugbears fled as the adventurers ventured into the depths of the cave to face the ogre.
With Ignis' flames, they successfully defeated the ogres, but Sik the Kobold was gravely injured. Seeing the wounds on Sik, Sophia began to question her choices for a life of adventure. When they emerged from the cave, they found the bugbear Sophia had charmed still waiting for her. Developing a fondness for the bugbear, Sophia decided to befriend him and brought him back to Holypertuis with the adventurers.
While the rest of the party went to the adventurers guild to claim their reward, the kobold did his best to heal himself.
When they reunited, Sik announced he wouldn't adventure again, having already tasted the harsh realities of this life. he prefered to retreat to his mountain, maong his kind.
Back in the highlander mountains, Sik met Jona, the aura of this person draw every kobold to her, and with their help, she escaped those cave and started to found a village within the highlanders mountains.
In this process, Squirm, alongside Sik were tasked to drive the giant spider resigning in the caves under the village away from the place. doing so pushed the spider to flee on the road linking Galeo and the rest of Siniadòr.
Because of this, a group of adventurer was sent to investigate the issue. Camping after killing a bunch of spiders, the group of adventurer is faced with the kobolds, surprised by the light. Luckily, Rakon, one of the adventurers speaks Draconic, and they are able to communicate.
Following the kobolds, the adventurers learn of the existence of the village hidden in the mountains, a refuge for those considered monsters who nevertheless possess the intelligence to live in society. And the kobolds are happy to share with the adventurers, Sik telling them of his life as an adventurers a few years ago.
