Full Name: Tasslehoff Burrfoot
Age: 29
Race: Kender
Gender: Male
Magic: None
Birthplace: Kendermore
Strengths:
-- He's a kender, and, of course, people usually try to stay away from kender, which could prove as a strength if in a dangerous situation.
-- He's very friendly, and being friendly always counts!
-- He is known for his lock-picking abilities, and can always pick a lock, unless it has been magic-locked.
-- He started making maps at a very young age and has his whole collections stuffed in his pouches. (They come in handy on desperate occasions)
Weaknesses:
-- He never carries around any weapons other than a small dagger, and on occasion, a hoopac.
-- He is small, which makes him appear weak when in battle.
-- He is affected by Wanderlust, which gives kender to urge to roam around constantly.
Description:
Tasslehoff (0ften called Tas) stands just a bit under four feet tall and has a very slight build. He has slender, pointed ears like an elf, and brown hair and eyes. His long brown hair is always tied up in a topknot, which most kender have and are very proud of. He usually wears a tattered shirt (sometimes with a vest over it) and blue pants. His clothes are extremely gaudy, for most kender prefer to wear flashy clothing.
Tas, like all other kender, could easily be compared to a young child, even though he is nearing his 30th year. He is irresponsible, and often takes things that do not belong to him, which to all kender is only "borrowing". Tas is completely without fear, like all kender, but does have fear for those he cares about, which is odd. He is very loyal to his friends.
Weapons:
-- A small dagger
-- A hoopac staff
History:
Tas' parents and most of his family are unknown. While traveling, Tas ended up in the town of Solace with a stolen artifact from Flint Fireforge in his pouches. Tanis Half-Elven came upon the kender, and Flint Fireforge, Tanis Half-Elven, and Tasslehoff Burrfoot became good friends.
After exploring most of Solace, Tanis, Flint, and Tasslehoff met a few more friends, who would later become the Heroes of the Lance. They met Caramon and his twin brother Raistlin, and Kitiara, their half-sister. They also met Tika, the bar maid at the Inn of the Last Home, Otik the Inn keeper, and Sturm Brightblade.
The group became very close over the next few years. But then word spread that an army of darkness was sweaping over the continent, and The Companions split up, each traveling to try and discover what was happening. They promised to meet back at the Inn of the Last Home in five years.
Tas went back home to Kendermore, while his friends went their seperate ways. He returned to the Inn five years later, ready for more adventure, of course.
RP Sample:
Tasslehoff Burrfoot was bored. He had been traveling along this very same road for over an hour, and nothing interesting had happened. No travelers passed by, no forks in the road appeared, no animals hopped along beside him. This whole adventure was boring. He sighed. Then he sighed again. Maybe if he kept on sighing as loud as he could someone would feel terribly sorry for him. He imagined to himself the whole scene.
He sighed. A mob of humans walked right beside him. A young woman gapsed in horror and slapped a hand over her mouth. "Oh! How terrible! A bored kender!" And then the whole mob of humans swarmed him and begun talking.
If only that would happen. "Oh well." He said. "At least I have my pouches." He began to rummage through his assortment of goods he had collected over the years. A broken quill, a teacup, a jeweled necklace, an old boot heel, and a pair of spectacles. He put on the spectacles, hoping to see what it was like to wear them. They only caused him to trip over a rock and plummet down into the dirt, which really hurt. "Ouch!" He yelled, jumping back to his feet. "I'll try them again later. Maybe they only work indoors."
