Username: [Hiuko]
Name: Slith Monocram
Race: Kobold
Age: 24
Weapon(s): Ballistic Dagger
Armor: None
Magic: None

Strengths: He is small, fast, stealthy, strong, agile, always underestimated, and very good with explosives and traps (Like most kobolds)

Weaknesses: He is short, being only 1.5ft gives him a height complex and tends to call everything shorted than himself... even though he knows its not true. The ballistic dagger is so big to him that he needs to use two hands to hold it and needs to use all his strength to hold it down so the blade moves and not the handle when it fires. Icarus is trying to work a solution for that.

Appearance: He is a 1.5ft tall kobold who speaks with a dragon accent (Sounds kinda throaty... if that helps explain it). He wears a tan shirt, brown pants, and leather shoes that seem like boots on him. He has a leather shoulder strap so he can carry his ballistic dagger on his back.

Personality: He has a height complex so everyone taller than he... which is everyone, he calls them short. This however works visa versa for things like bugs and very small animals. The height complex even kicks in for monster, thus making him wonder why he can’t fit his hands around something smaller than himself. He is fiercely loyal to those close to him and he actually has a good head for politics, which is good for Desert Storm. He can give some good personal advice sometimes, but it will be laced with words like, you short people. He means good though and he does realize in the back of his mind that tall is tall and short is short.

History: He was born in the caverns of the same mountain Kruz came from, just a different part of it. The city had a monster problem and Slith was a soldier at the time. He volunteered to hunt the monsters down and thus became a hunter... and a good one at that. He later found that some monsters could be tamed and thus earned the job of tamer/hunter. Slith asked the elder to let him explore the world and the elder let him as the seer’s saw a mich better fate for Slith laying beyond the cavern walls. Slith became a monster hunter because monsters seemed to be his calling and, although hard, he was quite proficient at it and sometimes even tamed the monster instead of having to kill it. He followed one monster into the desert and that monster is where he met his monster hunting companions. Icarus introduced him to Miranda and he joined Desert Storm. He, along with Berz, deal with many of the political issues. This political knowledge came from years of listening to political hearings when he worked as a soldier guarding the meeting hall. He feels lucky to have listened instead of just zoning out like the other soldiers. Icarus made the ballistic dagger a long time ago and Slith fell in love with the weapon, after much annoying begging Icarus buckled and gave Slith the ballistic dagger.

Other: Being 1.5ft tall means he frequently rides on peoples shoulders. He still owns a camel but he lets others use his camel mostly as a pack mule. He typically rides on Kruz’s shoulder but he doesn’t really care who carries him. Kruz is just prefered because it is a soft ride and Kruz’s shoulder is much bigger than other peoples.
