Species: Kobold (based on pathfinder)

Sexual Orientation: Pansexual
Favored Drink: Mead
Cronux (pronounced Crow-nus) began his life like many other kobolds, in a tribe. His tribe was known as the Iron Maw tribe and they weren't that different from most kobold tribes of the land. They kept to themselves and ran a mine. But one day, a dragon by the name of Krovin appeared and decided he would enslave and make a meal of the whole tribe. Fearful for his life, Cronux managed to flee his tribe's ancestral home.
For a kobold of his age, life alone in the wilderness would have been a death sentence, but luck shined for Cronux that day as he was found and taken in by a human bard by the name of Rienfrid and his traveling troupe. Agreeing to take care of the young kobold so long as he pulled his weight and helped the troupe. To this end, Cronux started small, assisting in setting the stage, and moving props, but eventually moved up, received training and began participating in acts and shows. Rienfrid himself and his friend Hugo began mentoring Cronux in not just the ways of song and dance, but also subterfuge and combat. Cronux would find other kobolds a rarity and would begin finding all the different peoples around him attractive in their own way, but only Rienfrid truly had a place in Cronux's heart. Cronux could never bring himself to admit this to his dear friend. This was the good life for Cronux, but it would not last.
After a day's performance in the capital, Cronux would spend the evening at a local tavern enjoying song and drink with the locals. He would return to the troupe's camp later that night, only to see it ablaze. Fear and panic swept over Cronux as he desperately searched for survivors but all he would find that night was Rienfrid, laying dead on the ground. Cronux was wracked with grief with the thought of, "I never got to tell him how I felt!" repeating through his head as tears streamed from his eyes.
The next day, Cronux would find a handful of survivors, but they had spent the night in the city and didn't know what had happened. Rienfrid was what held the troupe together and with him gone, everyone decided to go their separate ways. Cronux was alone again, but he was better than he once was. He would soon find though, that without his friends, many people began looking at Cronux very differently. Racism for kobolds was on the rise. The locals began blaming Cronux for what happened to his troupe, but before things got violent Cronux decided to hit the road again. He would never stay in one place for long. People that would travel with him would note that his was oddly charismatic for a kobold and was very high spirited and even flirty. Most people would never get to know him well enough to learn the pain that wracked his heart, the nightmares that plagued his dreams, or why he drank so frequently. Cronux hid his pain with happiness.
Owner's notes: Cronux was inspired from wanting to do something different from my norm. In RPGs, I typically play the serious characters with emphasis on melee combat. I wanted a more playful/silly character that could also be witty and clever and what could be better than a kobold? I also wanted Cronux to be a bit flirty, but not a douche. In his mind he isn't flirting, because he never got to confess his affections for Rienfrid, he almost compulsively gives compliments to people, so to them it comes off as flirting. Cronux is a red scaled kobold that is a bit taller than the average. He wields a rapier and is skilled with throwing knives. He is very outgoing and is willing to try anything. Due to being so disconnected from his own kind, he tends to be more attracted to a person's personality, but with that said he can also find a person's physical features attractive as well. To that end, gender is meaningless to him. Everyone is capable of having a good time with him!
Side note: Cronux can be found in Fek's Rack 2. Just go to Rack Net and do a name search for him. I try to keep him up to date with the different versions.
