Gribble

GRIBBLE

Goblin. Runs Black Hand, Shadowhearth's real government. Grew up in Aurum sewers. Genius logistics.

Backstory: Gribble, a goblin of unusual cunning, rose through the ranks of the city's underworld through a combination of fear, manipulation, and an uncanny knack for anticipating the actions of those around him. He managed to become the secret leader of The Black Hand, the criminal organization in Shadowhearth. Recognizing the apathy of Lord Erphius Fogg, Gribble saw an opportunity and subtly maneuvered himself into a position of influence. He now operates from the shadows, pulling the strings of the city's affairs, all while chasing the indifferent affection of Scrug, a she-goblin barmaid at The Shattered Mug.

Personality: Competent, angry, short. Genius tactician. Most capable person in 100 miles. Painfully in love with Scrub.
