__________________IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description: At the towering height of 2' 1", Arix is often underestimated or made fun of. However, he honestly doesn't care. He has bright, solid-yellow eyes. He is often seen with a cheery grin plastered on his face. His body is covered in dark green scales, but it grows somewhat lighter in color as it moves inward. He often wears simple attire, garbed in a dark green tunic and brown trousers, with a pair of somewhat-worn leather boots. He has multiple bags, satchels, and loops of leather to hold his belongings and instruments.

Personality: Arix is a cheerful, outgoing person. He is thick-skinned(metaphorically), most insults just flowing off of him. He's willing to be friends with just about anybody, though jokes and playful mockery are guaranteed. While it is difficult to anger him, his draconic heritage truly shines when one truly upsets him. He lashes out at whatever caused his anger, swearing to get revenge, even in the pettiest of ways. Once you befriend him however, he is a steadfast ally and a pretty fun person to be around.

Magic/Abilities

Flame Breath: Due to his draconic heritage, he has a much weaker version of a dragon's fiery breath. It takes little effort or time, but it only extends for about a foot outwards. It is more a thing for utility than offense, but it is still useful in some situations.

Musical Talent: Nothing magical about this(though the people who listen to him say otherwise), but he is rather skilled with a few instruments of his choice, namely the violin, accordion, and lute. He scavenged his instruments from those who had no use for them, and is incredibly protective of them.

Relationships
Sik: Arix's mother. Died in battle.
Taklak: Arix's father. Died with Sik.

History

Arix had a rather unremarkable childhood. Like most kobolds, he was expected to spend his entire life doing things that benefited the tribe. For a while, he was content with just that. He would do things like build traps, gather herbs, and hunt the occasional person who entered their forest. Also like most kobolds, he was expected to fight-and die-for the tribe. However, he was always a clever one, smarter than most others around him. He specialized in trapping, often able to take out any interlopers without having to fight. Because of that, he was able to live much longer than the rest, reaching the age of 23. After a while, he started to grow...bored. Bored with the same life, the same routine, the same situations. He began interacting with some of the people he was supposed to hunt, though he was rarely able to hold a conversation for more than a couple of minutes. When he was 19, he discovered music! The violin, ohoho! The lute, with it's wonderful strings! And the accordion, too! Every day he practiced and practiced, and grew quite good at playing them. He had an innate talent, not seen within many people. After a few years, he had decided to leave. The rest of the tribe paid little notice to Arix when he left, simply waving goodbye then going back to their jobs. Bringing out his life, Arix began to strum a little tune as he walked, searching for greater things.
