Shelko Beaker

Shelko Beaker is a 27 year old female kobold.

Shelko is 5 foot tall, which for a kobold is very tall. She had blue scales covering her body with her belly scales being a slightly paler shade. Her build is quite slender unlike the normal dumpy or “Shortstack” build kobold usually bear. Her eyes are a warm orange like flame.  She likes to think her usually size and orange eyes are a sign she is truly dragon blooded; a fantasy all kobolds tend to have.

Being covered in scales Skelko doesn’t tend to wear too much, usually just a sleeveless leather jerkin, a pair of shorts and a belt festooned with pouches. She is nearly always wearing a red scarf which she only ever takes off to bathe.

Shelko moves around with a relaxed grace and agility, able to duck and dodge most attacks, traps and hazards.

Shelko had a relaxed easy going personality. She despises formality and prefers to just take things how they come. She would rather get married in a potato sack than to spend hours with makeup, dresses veils and frills. She enjoys a good tease but knows when to stop; she likes to embarrass someone not hurt their feelings or demean them. Fitting her personally her manner of speech is equally relaxed containing plenty of slang and rarely includes honorifics like sir or madam.

Shelko is a veteran adventurer or at least that’s what she likes to think. She has taken on plenty of quests but generally avoids combat unless the foe is something she can take out with a poisoned crossbow bolt.

Being a good foot taller than a regular kobold Shelko had found herself as a bit of an outcast. There have been nasty rumours that she isn’t a pure breed. Interspecies breeding with other races is viewed as a disgusting act in kobold society which usually leads to excommunication. Due to her abnormal height and rare eye colour most other kobolds keep their distance from her.

Shelko like most adventurers had no fixed home, she lives in a town for a while and then moves on depending on the work situation or season.

Shelko is quite chatty and friendly should someone find themselves with her, a bit of company is a welcome break for her. She is extremely weary of any race with dark skin be them human, elf or dwarf. People with dark skin from the far south generally tend to be slavers and kobolds have been targeted for generations for use in emerald mines due to their small stature and durability.

Romance is really the last thing on Shelko’s mind, she accepted years ago that other kobolds aren’t interested. Being a kobold she is too different for the more mammalian races to even view as an option. She will happily flirt around jokingly but will crumble under any genuine interest. Shelko becomes extremely vocal when faced with physical affection, she will ramble on about anything and everything in an attempt to cover her embarrassment from even a single hug. She will attempt a nonchalant exterior but as soon as arms are around her and she can feel another person breathing the facade crumbles.

Shelko’s favourite colour is orange, her favourite meal is Sunday roast particularly pork, her favoured weapon a small hand crossbow, her favourite season is winter due to all the fires and cosy options.
