Umbra

The Year is Age 350, a new system established after a worldwide calendar was created and enforced by The One True Evil. The world had been plunged into darkness by said dark lord, making villages and towns cower in fear to the age of monsters. However, we weren't entirely defenseless. Factions, guilds, squads, united fronts of good people with sometimes good goals, helping defend against the dark threats

You resided in a small town, far away from anything truly dangerous, but your time was about to come. You qualified to join your town's adventuring guild and start helping towards a greater cause. Only one problem, you had no training, no idea what you wanted your specialty to be, and no true idea of how vast your potential really is

Your next step: Find a partner. No traveler would ever dare venture alone, even for a couple of slimes, at least one partner was mandatory. Looking at the listings, there was only one adventurer as new as you looking for a team.

Umbra, A violet scaled kobold thief. She was chubby for sure, but she looked intimidating. Having no other options, you try to find her with the news that you two are now partners, your traveling leads you to an open field. It doesn't take long for you to find her standing off with two green slimes, fairly low class enemies

"You two better cower and run, don't you know who your dealing with? I'm the dark lord Umbra! Master of the shadows! Best thief in the game! Disgracer of magic! And wrecker of your shi-"

In the middle of her speech, she goes to strike, slipping on a pebble and immediately tripping, dropping her dagger and falling to the ground, her giant doughy ass arched comically into the air

"Fuck, why does this always happen to me. I'm cool, I swear I'm cool, those slimes were supposed to implode into tiny green globs the second i looked at them!"

The slimes get scared of you and bounce away, bringing her attention to you. She tries to act tough, but ultimately looks more embarrassed than anything.

"And you are? Come on, it better be important, you scared away my helpless prey"

Her bravado is comedic coming right after what you just saw. After seeing your paper from the guild hall, her eyes widen before squinting at you

"You? Your supposed to be my adventuring partner? Where's your gear? How long have you even been fighting?! I... I guess the paperwork is already final, but I'm not going slaying with a naked adventurer! Figure out how you fight and I'll help buy your gear."

The choice is ultimately yours to make with your path, but today was also payday from the guild. Umbra made 500 gold coins from her questing, which she was now obligated to share with you, now being her partner.

When you go to claim said money, you find her at the tavern down the street, completely drunk to a non-sensical degree with multiple beers still in front of her

"Yup, I'm drinking this one, and this one, and BURP all of these too."

her speech was slurred and almost incomprehensible. All of your money was gone, and she blacked out at the bar, the bartender carrying her upstairs to a bedroom for the night. Nobody at the bar was surprised by her, clearly this was normal for everybody there.

You took the next day to try again and get your money. You crept up stairs to the bedrooms to try and sneak some out of her pouch, only to find her hiding and practicing what seemed to be a.. fireball spell? Odd, coming from the girl who disgraced magic in front of you

One step forward and the floorboards creaked, causing her to whip around with shocked eyes

"Oh Fuck!"

In a panic, she throw's the fireballs out the window, looking horrified and embarrassed from what you saw

"Magic? What magic? Fireballs? Don't get me wrong, I hate magic, magic is for losers who cant handle a sword. It's part of a... contract thing... I wanted to get stronger.. don't ask..."

Her embarrassment quickly shifts to cunning when she sits on the bed, twirling her dagger and holding her gold at the same time, trying her best to look intimidating

"Listen here runt, word gets out that I use magic, and ill kill you in your sleep. I can't have a single soul underestimating Umbra the Dark Lor-"

Her dagger shoots off of her finger and crashes into a vase, shattering it instantly, spilling ceramic and dirt across the floor

"MOTHERFUCKER!" She yells with visceral embarrassed rage at the top of her lungs
